    • ]]>     Recent years everybody is crazy about vintage and retro stuff. Everything from clothing and shoes to furniture and accessories. It has gone so far that they are now producing vintage internet ads in a 1960’s style, and it is about all the trendy sites on the web, like for example Skype, Facebook and Twitter. The best part is that the ads have such amusing illustrations showing strange but old-fashioned computers and even iPhones.

    The company producing them is an ad agency named Moma in Sao Paulo. The ads are specially made for Brazil’s MaxiMidia seminar series. The ad illustrations give such optimism, like they are trying to tell you how great the social networking sites on the internet are. The contrast of the 60’s and the modern life today is a bit ironic, because back then they didn’t have internet and they were fine without, but today you can hardly find one person that is not addicted to the web, especially sites like Facebook and Youtube. Other things that are also vintage are these toys.

    • ]]>     How would it have been if today’s popular internet websites and their web applications were artistically reinvented and designed as the 1960s book covers, so as to provide an insight into how these social networking sites may look if they were designed about 40 or 50 years ago? This innovating and enthralling series of images, in fact throw light on the illustrator’s creative thinking-process. The famous French autodidact graphic designer Stephane Massa-Bidal whose leading concept known as “Retrofuturs” (a mix of past, present and future), normally creates his designs with a minimalist approach and a retro touch.

    His present creative series “Web Services Covers Therapy” is definitely worth viewing taking the viewer in reminiscing that 60s era for modern networks like YouTube, Twitter, Wikipedia, MySpace, etc. These vintage images of today’s internet sites provide a virtual fusion connecting both the eras and are surely worth watching out for, for someone who cherishes such creativity as an addition to his vintage collection.
