Komboh Design & Illustration

Editorial Design for Issue One of Pendulum Magazine (2009)

Ah, the bustling city. This magazine cover by Canadian dynamic design duo, Komboh, has it all: high-rises, cars, trucks, and busy people. Juxtaposing the grime of the city is a thick, clean white coil, which adds a simple graphic element to the crowded urban streets. The design is straightforward, clean, unpretentious, and nice to look at.

In addition to design work, Hans Thiessen and Michael Mateyko at Komboh are also talented illustrators, creating delightfully whimsical works with bursts of color and controlled lines. Check out more of their work on their website, and be sure to visit their blog for more goodies.
