From my point of view, blog posts are something of a challenge to a person who has spent his career working to communicate focused ideas through the power of a simple shape, a swash of color, an implied line or a single sentence. Attached are a few of my favorite picks of modern communication that say a lot without using too many words (or any words at all). You’ll notice they are all from countries outside of the United States—maybe we are a little preoccupied covering all our talking points on social media these days than actually focusing on a message that pulls people in and connects with them on an emotional level.

One of the challenges of the RV industry is the availability of products for photography. We usually have to scramble to get products in and out of the photographers, and often don’t have the leisure to take the products out for on-site photography. The solution is to use a little bit of digital elbow grease and a lot of attention to details. This tow-shot is the compilation of five photos and nearly 50 detail, color adjustment and blurred layers.

With 20 years in the books at HuebnerPetersen, we’d like to document some of our favorite work that may have never seen the light of the world wide web for one reason or another. We’ve decided to try and compile some of this work in a series of posts that explore “things we like to do.” This first installation is a brief collection of design that involves organizing and categorizing complex information into quick, easy, understandable visuals. Some call it information design or information architecture. We don’t care what it’s called, we just love doing it.
