Two desks, turntables, books, a lightbox and drawing board all feature in this week's designer desktop challenge. But which creative duo does it all belong to?
We've featured a selection of images of a mystery artist's desktop, accompanied by a set of clues. All you have to do is guess who it belongs to...
Clue 1: Turntables
"During our lunch break, we like to DJ. In the past, we used to DJ to pay our students bills and the fun and skill of it has never left us."
Clue 2: Tools of the trade
"A couple of years ago, we launched our first graphic novel, which was put together on this lightbox and drawing board. We are deep into book two, which will be finished soon!"
Clue 3: Studio space
"Our studio is big enough to shoot in. For the past six years, we've worked in the advertising and fashion industry as a photography and creative direction team."
Clue 4: Reading material
"We have a huge library of books, from history to graphic design and even tarot reading. This material fuels our desires and creative heads."
Clue 5: Another pair of hands...
"We've worked as a dynamic, creative duo since 1998, where we made our name early on as type designers. Today we are more commonly known for our photography and art direction."
So, did you work out which creative duo this all belongs to?
