Does very strict German corporate design get you sexually aroused? Yes? Then by all means go pleasure yourself over at KMS Team’s super logical and rational site where you can see some great examples of well executed corporate campaigns, among other works.

More Dutch design for that ass. The sheer volume of work on Out of Order’s site (mainly various club promo flyers) makes it a necessary stop on the internet.

This UK-based duo has been turning out some ass-kicking design for some time now. Whether it’s an album cove with Bjork giving birth to an octopus, to outdoor advertising for UK telecom Orange, the two manage to get the message across in a seemingly surreal way. See for yourselves.

From the firm’s manifesto:

“We start with ideas
Pay attention to detail
Offer pragmatism and finesse
Make work that speaks for itself
Maintain that ornament is crime
and less is more
Don’t have a secretary
Are a multi-cultural team
Work across Europe
Allow 21 days for payment
Produce good design”

Here’s a blast from the past. Ken Garland was one of the great designers working in the UK towards the second-half of the 20th century. As you can see from his works, he was very much ahead of his time.
