Joshua Mauldin, Designer & Photographer.

I've been working on several widgets for the Mac lately, and they're quite the obsession! One was for American Idol (which was Apple's Featured Download, a Staff Pick, AND it received over 10,000 downloads its first month!), another for the infamously great Drive-Thru Records, and a blog widget for The Squad! These little things are so fun!

This was a website for Andrew E. Freedman Public Relations, a Los Angeles based PR firm. This was a giant team effort for The Squad, and we were all very pleased with how it came out! Andrew is very much a behind-the-scenes kind of fellow, so we decided to leave fingerprints of his handiwork all over the site! Pop on over to www.aefpr.com and check it out yourself!

James Morrison - US Site. My first project while working at The Squad. So. Much. Fun!

Barcelona “Absolutes.” I had such a great time making this. I got to use photographs I shot in Charlotte, NC! This record was designed and printed to have substance and weight. So I used some great uncoated stock and I did a little something special with the disc to make it look foggy too! I also did a custom identity for them.

Official website for satirist, actor, and musician Harry Shearer.

Emery's “I'm Only A Man” album website. We let people leave messages on mirrors, make their own postcards, and threw in everything including the kitchen sink! It became an audio player! We also used video as a method of transitioning between sections.

This site was designed around the packaging I created for Barcelona. We had lots of fun on this, and even designed secret download cards to go to an even more secret website for fans to download tracks from the new record!

The Summerwood Website. I was responsible for photography and image treatment. I worked on the design, Flash, and CSS coding. I was also responsible for making the water move and birds fly! Check it out at www.thesummerwood.com!

With this record, we wanted to show love growing in unlikely places. Everyone loved the cover!

For this package, I took inspiration from one of the songs and designed this album to the theme of “It's time to be so bright in this world,” and what the beginning of that would look like. They loved it. Me too!

For this CD cover I wanted to use images as type elements, and I think it worked out pretty well!

A shirt for Beck. The intention was to match image and type with his super unique musical style. I combined crazy imagery with custom letterforms to create the final product.

A response to Hurricane Katrina using only manipulations of typographic elements.

A poster for an AIGA meeting, focusing on how to find your roots in graphic design.

A CD Package for Autolux. I wanted to take cues from their name and album title, so I used visual maps of a German luxury auto's motor sounds to create images of a new world.

A poster for The Orchestra's 2006 Summer tour.

An experiment in combining found elements.

Designed for Outi Clothing in Charlotte, NC. Metallic silver and dark red on black.

A poster and typeface that I designed with fashion in mind, hence the name: Blunt Fashion. Two things I love, custom type and posters!
