David Maclennan wallpaper
This most awesome desktop wallpaper was designed & illustrated by David Maclennan. Check out his new site All Work All Play or see his work on Behance. There should be a wallpaper to suit anyone’s screen size after the jump so you can have your very own 10and5 leopard in a leather jacket. Thanks David! We love our luiperd.

A Reminder – Serenade Your Walls in Joburg tonight.
Photos from the Serenade Your Walls exhibition
Thanks to Lindi Schwella & Michael Tymbios for being our event photographers and to everybody else who picked up a disposable camera to help out.
A BIG Thank-you!
Wow. The Serenade Your Walls exhibition yesterday was even better than we expected! Thank you to all who came through to enjoy the art, the music, a few beers and great company. Also a massive thanks to all the AM I COLLECTIVE folk who worked so hard to help us make it happen. If you missed out, the work is still up for you to view at the AM I COLLECTIVE Garage and we’ll be uploading photos from the event soon! The posters are available for online purchase at shop.10and5.com.
Some of the posters meant to be displayed were damaged in transit so we couldn’t put them up. Biggest apologies to these artists and bands. We know it’s not the same but we think you still need to see them, here they are:
Kwani Experience by Lauren Fowler
Desmond & The Tutu's by Job Solario
Jax Panik by Arno Kruger
Also somehow the Latimer brothers’ names got switched around. To clear things up, the Pity the Fool poster is by Alex Latimer and the Sedge Warbler poster is by Patrick Latimer. Sorry guys!
All in all it was a very successful event and we’d love to do it again, we’ll keep you posted!
Serenade your Walls – a 10and5 exhibition
The 10and5 Poster Project 2010 is the first of our annual initiative of South African designers and artists designing posters guided by one collective theme. This year’s exhibition is called Serenade your Walls, and is a collection of posters designed for 14 local bands.
The project aims to showcase South Africa’s finest local design talent, whilst simultaneously celebrating this country’s lively music scene.
Serenade your Walls features one guest artist from Argentina and 12 local creatives, who will be showing their A1 band posters at the AM I Collective studios in Cape Town on 1st August and Wolves in Johannesburg on 4th August, respectively.
Please join us as we celebrate South Africa’s finest at our exhibition opening with wine, live music and very good design.
