An Identity System Even A Zombie Could Love.

German agency Jung von Matt AG, has created a brilliant identity design for television production company 13th Street which focuses on crime and horror.

The identity system uses the elements of the stationary to let you kill, maim, and rip open zombies. I love it. Hole punches, staples, and envelope tears taking out zombies one or two at a time. I especially love the buzz saw blade CD packaging. Visually clever, and unique I guarantee this system will leave a lasting impression on anyone that receives it.
