Vectorvault + Brita + WalMart = Awesomeness
Charitable Water Bottles
Here is a perfect example of vector art in action. With a very tight timeline, and multiple versions to produce, I took on this assignment for Brita and WalMart.
Someone was nice enough to send me a couple of samples. I’ve got them up on the shelf as a reminder of the project. It was fun to work on with allot of room to play. I hope you like where they ended up.
All of the elements used to build these can from The Vectorvault Vector Library. Take a look for yourself here.

Not so fast little mouse. Vector art is here to stay. Here’s why:

Little did you know, that each quarter was already going to support vector based technology? You were paving the way for other designers to keep the format alive. You are already involved, whether you know it or not.
The one thing that you probably noticed from that type of game play was how smooth it was. How precise the aim and touch. Over time, colourful games like Pac Man came along and gobbled up much of the attention. Pixel-based design was about to take off like a rocket. Vector art took the low road. Finding it’s way to graphic designers who admire qualities like precision and measurement.
Today there are thousands of vector based micro stock collections on the market today. The best are captured here.
Because of it’s mathematical characteristics, vectors will never go away. That’s like geometry going out of style. Not gonna happen. Here’s why…
