I'm Marius, the guy who does everything with pixels. This is
my blog in which you may read my artistic writings - in Romanian,
find Work In Progress [WIPs]
images and opinions about different aspects of today's trends. Have
fun readin' it.
The entire site is chock-full of texts and images. If you do not
enjoy reading, you may miss the purpose of these pages.

Buenos dias!
Last week I've done two new book covers. The first one was for a
book on artificial inteligence by Ioan Dziţac. I chose abstract imagery
and I used a colour palette which suggests a high-tech world.
Special thanks to Lucian
Marin for the suggestions on typography.
The second book is about new paradigms in artificial inteligence
authored by several people. For this one, I illustrated fuzzy logic
in two ways. For the front I did something rather complex, strictly
related to mathematics, but for the back I did something more
"humane".
'Till next time, best wishes to you :). Oh, and... it's almost
Christmas. I wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I doubt
I'll post anything new until next year.

I finally had the time to update the site. I added some new content
and we updated several pages.
My latest work is
"Love bites".
The first WIP saw the light in early November 2007, but I wasn't in
the mood to finish it until yesterday - 3rd of February 2008. Take
it as an image for Saint Valentine's
Day, but I didn't intend it to be so.
In early November 2007, I was asked to make a new logo and a new
site interface for Ovidiu
Bosancu. In two weeks my work was finished. This is with
what I came up with:
The organizers of the "Music and Poetry
Festival" from Arad, Romania, asked me to design the calendar
for 2008 and the cover for the next book of this festival. I am
really content how these two works turned out. Again, all this
happened in late September and in November 2007.
In January 2008, I was
contacted by the web designer behind Foundation Recordings,
asking me for the permission to use the image Old Radio. I ended up,
not only allowing him to use it, but also doing two 3D objects for
the site design. A mixing box and a disco ball. Hope you like them.
And, in other news... I am proud to announce that in October 2007,
"The wind
of change" image appeared in the "Best of Cinema
4D" gallery of the 3D
Attack magazine. That's not all: the same image became the
front cover in November 2007 issue, which also
featured a four pages interview with me :). It was
my first interview of any kind.
In conclusion... November was the most active month since august
2007. :)

This is the new ROBO Design web site. Thank you for visiting my
blog.
With this new site we made sure that we can keep in-touch with the
public more easier. Expect from now on more often updates. Feel
free to navigate the simple interface :).
New content on the site:
... after all... 2006 was highly active.
About the site
I've been told that the interface design is not good. The ROBO
Design logo is too retro, the colour theme is too brown and...
last, but not least the navigation system is not good. Well the
reasoning behind this interface was to make a simple, clean one.
Nothing too fancy. The colour theme is inspired by the Ubuntu Linux
distro, besides this we didn't want to stick to the blue colour. As
for the navigation system, it's clear that by having so many menus,
we would have cluttered the whole site. We wanted both to have our
own pages, our own sort of site. Thus, the decision was to hide the
menus under these two named parts/sides.
