DESIGN> magazine (edition 11, 2008/9)

no.11 > BRAND

PREFACE > 5

PUBLISHER’S NOTE We have pulled off the impossible by re-developing a previously ‘small magazine’ that attempted to be the voice of the design industries, into an innovative and allencompassing communication platform. Design > has been the most challenging and exciting project that I have ever realised in my entrepreneurial career. It drove through my neural network like the lights on the M1 highway at night.

The brilliance is inexplicable, defiant of traditional media, crawling with information gateways, logical, technological, pioneering.

Coffee, smoke, cokes with the other Design > folks. Pushing a virtual deadline, clicking through time and space all over the place. In the end I can sit down, relax in all those ‘traditional’ magazine reading places, with my laptop (Lap – Top as not in LapAzine >) and read in the traditional page turning way, a great magazine. You may find it slow, fast, you may become impatient with the loading time, or just have slow access to the web. Technology, such as the first time print came into being, has advantages and disadvantages.

An ode to Design > Collective pieces fall apart then come together My design, your design, our design Ever changing, challenge forever Ego bringing collapse, decline, sublime

The development process has been made possible by our endorsers, founding sponsors and of course some of the leading design thinkers in South Africa. I want to thank everyone for their time, dedication, enthusiasm and belief.

Arrive, Alive – Juiced up with Fuel in your Engen, Mac – PC Merc or Prada Adorn yourselves with Adobe, or Quark in your Spark Rise above the waves – Radio – TV – Satellite Xmas Dish or Design Clerk Mind – Surf or Body Turf, beats having Nada

Design > is necessary for several reasons, it offers individuals, institutions, companies and South Africa as a brand, the opportunity to enjoy individualism with a national intent.

Its development has included and considered every possible design discipline, every voice from school designer to the icon, all brand, advertising and PR activities for business, all institutions and of course allows parties and opinions to remain vibrant within their own realms. Thus elevating the Design > industries/consciousness into a milky way like site – ght, where every star can shine in its own piece of African shrine.

The platform has allowed for the development of discipline specific magazines, dedicated to both the institution representative of the discipline, its members and the overall market, business-to-business and the consumer, which operates or sh-operates within each discipline. Its application allows for creativity beyond traditional media.

Juice, coffee, brand, consumer scanned Toothbrush-tee, products flood Summer labels, instantly tanned Crawling through the expense of free pitching blood

THE CHANGE WE NEED Welcome to DESIGN

> 11 ,

which focuses on the theme: ‘BRAND’.

The recently concluded US presidential election race attracted great interest from around the world not only for its political importance but also because of the innovative and eloquently executed branding campaign devised by the Obama camp. Almost overnight, Barack Obama became one of the most recognised brands in the world and his team managed to etch slogans such as “Yes we can”, “Change can happen”, “The change we need” and “Change we can believe in” into the minds of millions. These are powerful messages because they speak the language of our time. The Obama messages merged the concepts of ‘change’, ‘active engagement’ and a ‘team of rivals’ working collaboratively to achieve common goals. Against the backdrop of a seriously tainted image of the US, internationally, and a global economic crisis, these messages have become the mantras of aspiration for billions of citizens around the planet because they spark a new wave of optimism in a gloomy world.

This new wave of optimism also relates to the design professions and even though it is not as a direct result of the US elections, we have seen many developments implying positive change in 2008. On the global front, the International Federation of Interior Architects (IFI) officially joined the International Design Alliance (IDA) and recently moved their secretariat to Montreal to be in close proximity to its peers, the International Council of Graphic Design Associations (Icograda) and the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (Icsid). This move implies more cohesive collaboration among the international bodies, to ensure that the voices of designers are united, to empower the growth and strengthen the position of the design professions.

Locally, some of the most prominent stakeholder organisations collaborated for the first time to map the local landscape in a pilot research project resulting in the publication of the IDA World Design Survey – South African findings. The collaboration was timely, as the stakeholders have traditionally operated in silos and the final report would, hopefully, serve as a foundation to map an integrated national strategic plan for the development of the South African design economy. This project is further augmented by the collaboration between the South African Communication Council (think) and Sappi in another research study, the Sappi State of Design report, which measured the opinions of 400 communication and marketing managers regarding their perceptions of the industry. The results provide ample food for thought regarding the industry’s strengths and weaknesses and provide valuable indicators for future development.

Closer to home, this first digital edition of DESIGN> magazine is another example of radical and positive change. Even though it is in its infancy, this first digital edition offers a metadisciplinary communication platform that serves most design disciplines and peripheral services and stakeholders.

The publishing team has gathered editorial contributions from more than 25 writers from five continents. It is a good start but watch this space, as the team has many more ambitious plans for the future. <

BRAND THE BELOVED COUNTRY

IN ONE VOICE It remains a dream to have one united body representing all the different disciplines in design in South Africa.

This dream could soon become a reality as Peter Kersten, the former Managing Director of BNO, the multidisciplinary professional design body in the Netherlands visits us this year. He is specifically coming to South Africa to help generate the structures to form an Institute of Design in our country.

Why unite 5 separate associations into one?

1. Increased memberships lead to => better financial resources => > Better operational quality leads to => respect, glamour, attraction. > M o re c l o u t evo ke s m o re l eve ra g e = > w i t h government.

2. More disciplines under one roof leads to => encouragement for innovation. > Interdisciplinary cross-fertilization leads to => competence improvement. > Harmonisation of business practices among design disciplines is encouraged by commissioners.

Further Effects One design association => positive image effects: > more leverage towards government (economic affairs; culture; education; foreign affairs); > one voice towards sister associations (advertising, architecture, PR, management consultancy); > more stature amongst commissioners; > a clear “What’s in it for me” proposition for new members; serious/respectful partner for education and training institutes.

One design association => positive professional effects: > cross- fertilization of design knowledge and design culture between disciplines; > ‘education permanent’ => ‘BNO Academy’, BNO ‘Back to school’;

> >

business performance barometer among members; tailor-made design research programmes.

One design association => positive organisational effects: > better housing on appropriate location; > space for exhibitions and events; > flexible allocation of financial resources at peak situations; > flexible allocation of human resources at peak situation.

In consultation with Peter, he had the following suggestions to make in formulating the new body and these will be the criteria he wishes to use to stimulate dialogue and consultation: > first agree on common (higher) departure points; > establish your long term positioning in relation to your prime target group => Pro association?

Federation? Community? > keep the departure points simple and close by (‘What’s in it for me’ for future members); > avoid discussing structures in the beginning; > assign on a (limited) fee basis, an excellent consultant.

Furthermore, he suggests the following: > Be daring! > Take advantage of your ‘previously disadvantaged position’ > Do it!

So how can we afford to cover his expertise and costly consultation fee? Very simple. Peter is being sponsored

by PUM, Netherlands Senior Experts, who will pay him a consultation fee and cover his airfare and other traveling expenses. We have to provide accommodation and a place where he can work. I have put these structures in place.

I believe we are now very close to creating our design umbrella and then we can move forward and really brand our beloved profession both locally and abroad.

Albertus Swanepoel MAKES MAJOR HEADWAY IN NEW YORK #Z +BDRVFT -BOHF

South African fashion design has frequently attracted the international limelight in recent years but the country has not yet delivered a major international star. That however changed on 17 November this year, when the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) and VOGUE announced the recipients of the fifth annual awards from the CFDA/VOGUE Fashion Fund at Skylight Studios in New York, USA.

32 > DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

One of the most important elements of design is, in fact, design philosophy.

No longer centred around the manufacturing of products, design now encompasses making the correct statement in the marketplace and achieving â&#x20AC;&#x2DC; buy inâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; from the end user.

Durand Maternity Hospital Symbol (1979). “This symbol was designed to help build a warm and friendly brand, capable of symbolizing the act of giving birth. The client was negative at first, believing it emphasised the cardiologic aspect above the birth aspect. Yet it was gradually accepted and eventually became the hospital’s visual identity.”

Stork Pictogram (1978). â&#x20AC;&#x153;The pictographic system for Buenos Aires Municipal Hospitals was originally designed for Durand Hospital, but later adopted for the entire hospital system. We proposed the stork as a popular icon related to maternity care. But some administrators are not ready for innovative changes. One hospital director sombrely told me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Dear Mr. Shakespear, you must know that babies are not brought by storks.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I still believe that storks bring babies. So do people.â&#x20AC;?

Buenos Aires Underground (1995-2007). â&#x20AC;&#x153;We rescued the colloquial term â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Subteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the understanding that collective memory required it.

Surveys and focus groups reinforced that choice.

We also discovered that people use expressions such as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I take the green oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I take the red one.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; This clearly shows the value attributed to their preferred subway lines.â&#x20AC;?

America 92 Exhibit (1992). â&#x20AC;&#x153;We designed 25 thematic macro arrows for the wayfinding program for the 500 Anniversary of America Discovering Exhibition held in Buenos Aires in 1992. The scale of the signs allowed the crowd to perceive them pretty well, at the same time providing enrichment and amusement to the fair.â&#x20AC;?

CRADLE-TO-CRADLE THE BEST SOLUTION #Z %FBO "SNTUSPOH

One of my favourite hobbies is fly fishing. Just being able to be out there amongst nature is tremendously regenerating. But it can also be distressing to witness the degradation of the environment – the pollution, absence of insect life, the condition of the fish, the impact on the plant life. Perhaps this is why, for me, carrying the ‘green’ flag through to everything in day-to-day life is so important.

The brand, branding and brand equity have become increasingly important components of contemporary cultures and the economy and are now being described as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;cultural accessories and personal philosophiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. In non-commercial contexts, the marketing of entities which supply ideas or promises rather than product and services (e.g. political parties or religious organisations) may also be known as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;brandingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

78 > CREATIVE PAPERS

ADDING PERSONALITY TO YOUR BRAND Creative papers, if chosen correctly, can add huge value and prestige to the image and identity of a company or individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s broader business communication. They are used in the high value end of the market and are consequently mostly expensive, although there are also a number of economical offers available.

Printers around the world have â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; sought to speed up production, step up reliability and improve the quality and flexibility of output. As cost and time are seen to be of major importance in this industry, the development of Job Definition Format (JDF) heralded a new era of workflow automation.

Case study > Coca-cola in South Africa Coca-Cola is one of South Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major investors. It began an extensive programme of long-term investment in the country after 1994. In 1997 the company announced its intention to expand business and began a R1.2 billion infrastructure expansion programme, designed to penetrate the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s markets.

One of the key elements of this strategy has been creating alliances â&#x20AC;&#x201C; partnerships with various stakeholders, including bottlers.

Coca-Cola Southern Africa (CCSA) assists with overall business development, working in tandem with bottlers to promote product awareness, and helping launch the marketing and advertising programmes designed to ensure brand recognition. More importantly in terms of trust creation however, CCSA also provides managerial and technical assistance to these smaller companies, promoting production and distribution efficiency, quality control and personnel training. In this way, it helps them to realise continuous growth and economic profitability, relying primarily on local managerial and technical labour.

As such, Coca-Cola has effectively created a chain of exceptional brand ambassadors throughout the country, with their personal testimonials about the company impacting directly on the perceptions of the communities within which they live and interact. CCSA is therefore harnessing â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;word of mouthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; as a means of establishing corporate credibility â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a key objective when it comes to doing business in Africa.

To talk about branding and education in the same breath can be very dangerous.

Ideally you would like your prospective client, the student, to have done their homework and become part of the family of an institution through a process of questioning and trust. Trust in the quality and value they feel in registering to further their education. This kind of trust is not built on aggressive marketing, branding and salesmanship which can be very misleading and end with a useless piece of paper and the sponsor being over a hundred thousand Rand poorer. It would also be true to say this kind of misleading gamesmanship does not only apply to education, but to any service or sales business in any field.

The scope of the South African Design Survey was to map the characteristics of the South African design sector. Within the scope of the project, the following four questions were addressed: > What are the structure/systems that define the design economy in South Africa and what changes could lead to the recognition and promotion of designâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contribution to the overall economy in the long run?;

> Who are the participants in the design economy, what are their numbers and what is needed by particular populations, to 'JWF PG 4PVUI "GSJDBµT NPTU QSPNJOFOU PSHBOJTBUJPOT support their successful participation in the FOHBHFE JO EFTJHO QSPNPUJPO BOE QSPGFTTJPO long term?; NBOBHFNFOU GPSNFE B QBSUOFSTIJQ BOE TVCNJUUFE B DPNNPO &YQSFTTJPO PG *OUFSFTU BT B SFTFBSDI > QBSUOFS PO CFIBMG PG 4PVUI "GSJDB 5IJT QBSUOFSTIJQ XBT TVCTFRVFOUMZ FMFDUFE UP QBSUJDJQBUF JO UIF *%" 8PSME %FTJHO 4VSWFZ QJMPU QSPKFDU

How can approaches to governance, as well as particular programmes, services and initiatives strategically contribute to the enduring growth of capacity within the design community to foster and promote designâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contributions in the long term, and what are viewed as impediments/stumbling blocks/constraints?; and

DECODING DESIGN: Understanding and using symbols in visual communication "VUIPS .BHHJF .BDOBC 1VCMJTIFE CZ )08 #PPLT 3FWJFXFE CZ 3PCFSU - 1FUFST

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our culture has lost touch with the archetypal principles that underlie simple numbers and shapes, principles that lie deep within the unconscious and have a psychological and spiritual impact on us.â&#x20AC;? A longtime designer and teacher immersed in symbolism and visual literacy, she delivers the leitmotif with fervent zeal: â&#x20AC;&#x153;As designers, it is our responsibility to create conscious and lucid communications. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to contribute to information junkâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;? - Maggie Macnab 5IJT FOHBHJOH EFTJHO UIFPSZ CPPL GVMžMMT JUT TUBUFE QVSQPTF UP ²DPOOFDU VT CBDL JOUP UIF MBOHVBHF PG OBUVSF UP SFWJWF PVS VOEFSTUBOEJOH PG TPVSDF BOE UP DSFBUF DPNNVOJDBUJPOT UIBU ÂżPX VOPCTUSVDUFE CZ BO JOUFMMJHFODF UIBU IBT MPTU JUT XBZ JO UIF XPSME Âł " RVPUF BUUSJCVUFE UP (BMJMFP (BMJMFJ TVNT UIF BVUIPSÂľT JOUFOUJPOT JO ²EFNZTUJGZJOH BOE EFDPEJOHÂł WJTVBM MBOHVBHF¹²:PV DBOOPU VOEFSTUBOE UIF VOJWFSTF XJUIPVU MFBSOJOH žSTU UP VOEFSTUBOE UIF MBOHVBHF JO XIJDI JU JT XSJUUFOŠ³ XJUIPVU XIJDI ²XF XBOEFS JO B EBSL MBCZSJOUI Âł

Books published on South African communication design are rare to find.

Sporadically, awards annuals or company showcases see the light, but few books exist that delve into the thinking and creative processes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with substantial depth of discourse â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on local communication design and designers. Intrigue: the graphic designerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s code is one of those rarities that present the career accomplishments, philosophies and work of a highly regarded South African designer - Jan Erasmus.
