Gluekit is the moniker of American designers Christopher Sleboda and Kathleen Sleboda used for their collaborative projects. Since 2002, Gluekit’s award-winning work has been featured in hundreds of magazines around the world and more than a dozen books about design and illustration. The duo was featured on the cover of Print magazine in 2008, and in addition to creating art for the covers of dozens of magazines, the pair have produced graphics for book covers, theatre productions, and television. Their self-initiated projects are an important part of their practice; these range from experimental photo collages and typographic explorations to the creation and curation of various product lines. In 2007, Gluekit launched Part of It, an online boutique which offers a curated selection of products with proceeds going towards artist-selected charities. More recently, the pair designed steel bookends that mark Gluekit’s foray into metal fabrication. Gluekit’s work has appeared in exhibitions in Japan, Sweden, the UK, New York and Los Angeles.
FiZZZ BZZZZ! is a Paris based art direction & design studio, founded by Alexandre Viault & Benoît François. They use and create Texts, Images and Objects as raw material, for the mise en forme and mise en scene of the projects they are involved in.
