Nando Costa: Defective

Wow, I’m doing some research for a project and I decided to swing by Nando Costa’s site. It’s been a while, and I noticed he posted a piece back in May called “Defective.”

Don’t know if this has already made the rounds, but it’s new to me. I really, really dig it.

“thats an unbelievable winner”

As in, “I can’t believe that won”?

I’m really not feeling that one. Like at all. I prefer Nando’s.

Perfect example of trying too hard to be more than what it is: interesting on the surface. Lacks substance. Keep up the nice work.

hahahahhahahahhahahahha at yotam.

what a perfect snob. damn.

actually i think this piece is full of meaning if you’ve ever heard of things like ‘symbols’. But i guess they don’t teach that at snob school.

it’s beautiful and a really really nice departure from the common fare. It’s good to see design as art every now and then. refreshing.

Justin, yes, as in “Its a travesty”

2e, I think the winner has some merrit, it’s a very nice narrative. Obviously the execution doesn’t highlight the latest design trends and advanced technical skills but that goes to show that content is king.

THA - DON

yes nice to see art its refreshing…
ah portland hey.. cool, but he already owns the world.

nuff

the winner kinda reminds me of ‘La Jetée’ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056119/

hahahahaha… All these “design-pussies” and their “VOTE FOR ME NOW!!!!!!!”-link on their sites. too funny.

Anyway, nando is annoying as hell with his brazil-patriotism. Imagine if he was american. Beside his girlfriend or wife is a lot more talented than him.
