Hungry Castle

The Brandery

ButiClub is making friends with fashion. Our homemade press passes allowed us to meet beautiful models, designers and personalities.

‘ButiClub, so hot right now. ButiClub’

Look it’s Charlie!

Painting Godzilla

dave — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 09:42:07 +0000

We were recently commissioned to make a short film for Watx&Colors. Time was short, the set kept moving and our lead Godzilla was late. Seriously though, it’s amazing what you can achieve in 21 days without sleep.

This exclusive making of reveals a few of our castle tricks. Music by Bag Raiders (thanks for making us look good guys).

Founded in 1930 and uncovered by Hungry Castle in 2010, ButiClub is a members only establishment dedicated to the celebration of life and the butifarra sausage. Hungry Castle sliced, stitched and stuffed fifty authentic butifarra sausages in honour of all 50 members for the ButiClub Exhibition Barcelona. The collection includes a line of special edition tee-shirts as well as two books about the club’s Members and Lovers. Photography by Mayka F

Color Attack

dave — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 10:00:09 +0000

Color attack is a special stop frame animation created in collaboration with Soon in Tokyo and commissioned by Watx&Colors Barcelona.

The initial brief was to make a short film using the pop up book mechanic. We took it a little further by building the first ever popup-book-cuckoo-clock (cuckoo-pop for short).

Table for 32

dave — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 09:59:17 +0000

What better way to celebrate our first year than by throwing the biggest intercontinental birthday lunch ever. Guests from London to LA and São Paulo to Sydney will all take part by dining out with their new pocket-sized friends (Castles are always Hungry). All we ask is that they eat well and that they don't blink when their photos are taken.

Typies

dave — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 09:47:03 +0000

These soft type toys are made using the finest fabrics and are based on the 26 characters from the Helvetica family. Each of the letters are made with love in Barcelona and personalised for extra satisfaction.

Stick with me baby

oriol — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 12:15:33 +0000

Pimp your MacBook with stickers guaranteed to bring you frame, fortune and sex appeal (not true, but the stickers are awesome).

Stick with me baby is a special collection of stickers created with our friends Herraiz Soto. The concept grew from a desire to give people the opportunity to personify their laptops. The sets include the MacBook Bros, MacBook Mos and our newest addition the MacBook Hos. We hope you like them as much we do.

They say me things

oriol — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 12:00:21 +0000

This project began humbly; as a collection of quotes and words from the mouths of friends, lovers and colleagues. Born from our desire to understand a new city (Barcelona) and a strange language, it quickly grew into an exhibition consisting of illustrations, spray paint and some very strange little objects.

Ø

dave — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 19:44:15 +0000

Norwegian label Ø recently invited us to create a unique identity and visual language for their new range of scarves. The result is elegant, timeless and at times a little quirky. Take a scroll through the new website.

Mind Travel

dave — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 14:46:05 +0000

Each year New Era invites select artists from across the globe to develop an artistic interpretation of their classic cap. This year Dave was chosen as 1 of 15 artists in Spain.

The project puts a huge emphasis on both concept and the creative journey. With two weeks from the delivery date, the pressure was on to create something that would make hats turn.

Sit back and enjoy!

OFFF brings together studios, artists, designers and creatives from all over the world to share their experiences and latest projects. This year we were lucky to be amongst the best of the best as we presented our mildly hilarious experience in creating the first club (that we know of) dedicated to the appreciation of the butifarra sausage.

The presentation was a success and yes that is Stefan Sagmiester wearing a ButiClub badge!
