D&AD presented the next creative generation this weekend, and we went to check it out. A collection of the best creative, design and graphics from graduates across the UK and as far out as Miami Art College, this year D&AD’s caused less of a fuss than the suicide-based posters of last year. Here’s you a roundup of some of my favourite work and a few things that I couldn’t help but take photos of as we walked around. This post originally appeared on (untitled) London.

Shane Noonan does some lovely illustrations – his Fox in Human’s Clothing caught our eye. And here, on a lighter note, are some men holding a shoot-out in a wood. Glorious.

Jay Wright manages to make recycling fun and quirky with trees that chop up humans.

Ellie Pickering’s collection of characters caught our eye with their individual quirky profiles. I adored her family of owls and am pining to buy one of her mugs.

Sarah Water’s beautiful animal illustrations caught our eyes with some gorgeous ducks. Some reminiscent of a more sensible Quentin Blake, they’re gorgeous.

And I spotted this ‘about me’ poster, which was one of the best that caught my eye. Unsurprisingly it won a Best New Blood award.

I did some work (and continue to) for (untitled) over summer during which they were idly plotting Toby Triumph, art friend and cohort of graphic designer Dudley Wild, coming in to draw illustrations all over the big white studio walls. Toby does nice pictures of giraffes and fat people. He did the wall this month, and the video is lovely. With lots of posing.

I am enjoying illustrated tweets today. Lovely and peculiar illustrations by Katie Vernon of tweets plucked from the public timeline. Of particular note are the father-like hairy legged animals; my father is made of 90% beard and had some glasses exactly like these in the 80s. (He was a trend setter, and is still rocking the look today.) Anyway these are ace.
