andrew miller

millers current project aims to test the quality of design against our recognition of brands. everyday (for 100 days) the 'brand spirit' blog showcases a new example of an everyday object sprayed white in an effort to test our constant expose to branding. miller himself is 'by day a strategic agent of change... i study by night....and I’m on a perpetual quest for the perfect burger.'

keep an eye on this one.
