Designer Bill Ferenc Brings Characters to Life for Holy Cow
Feb 8th
You will see several animal characters coming to life at Holy Cow Headquarters. These characters each come with their own identity and special attention to detail. Thanks to designer Bill Ferenc, these designs are taking on a whole new appeal and coming to life. Beginning with Spring 2010, Bill created Amy the Elephant, Tracy the Tree Frog, Joy the Monkey, Karyn the Toucan, Bobby the Tiger, and Dennis the Alligator. For Fall, Bill developed Lola the Bear, Missy the Squirrel, Larry the Moose, and several more to follow. Bill helps Holy Cow define the identity of these characters through special attention to detail. Once Bill has set design in motion, Sandy and Connie work with our factory in production. You can see more of Bill’s great design and illustration work here.
Q&A with Holy Cow Designer Nani
Oct 22nd
We are working with some amazingly talented designers from around the world. We prefer a wide mix of artists because each brings such a different perspective. After seeing some of Nani’s street murals, we knew that she would bring a fresh approach to Holy Cow. We caught up with Nani to chat about her style and the latest Holy Cow design.
Nani, where are you from?
I’m from Indonesia but am currently in Melbourne, Australia.
How does Melbourne inspire your design work?
Everything here does. I love to see beautiful things and see what people are doing. I love the landscape. I will take photos, sketch, or even my dreams. They all inspire my work.
How do you define your overall style?
I don’t want to define my style because I love to try every kind and mix all styles. I use different media. But if people see my work, mostly they say its pop art, vintage and colorful.
What is the story behind your most recent design?
Holy Cow has an Earth-saving mission. Birds represent an animal who feel the air and have problems with air pollution. The colorful background represents change and beautiful things for the air.
