Diem Chau + W+K = NIKE Crayons- 06.09.10

standing_group_crayola_nike.jpg Unbelievably awesome. When my favorite crayon carver, Diem Chau, emailed me with pics last night of the latest project with W+K for Nike… for World Cup… the press kit for Write the Future campaign…. i was instantly amazed and jealous of all the lucky folks that got one. Such a beautiful piece of art. Incredibly packaged. Awesome idea. All the soccer stars are personified in crayon carvings! Huge thanks and congrats to Diem and W+K on an awesome project (and for providing the pics!) and see close ups on the next page…

Firstly ~ the amazingly epic NIKE Write the Future World Cup spot

Forget Brazil, Argentina, Italy. This is the year the USA finally pulls it off. It’s a lock! Go USA!

These are amazing! Not only does it get us excited about the world cup starting in just a couple of days, but the design is inspiring too!

Hello from brazil!
This is amazing, but there is something wrong here. The official sponsor of the world cup is Adidas, not Nike. They should not use the words “World Cup”. If Adidas see this, they won`t like it.
