Talia Cohen is a graphic designer working in Vancouver, Canada, through her studio TACN. She essentially works for the package design, advertising and identity fields. Among her works, I think the most interesting are package designs (simple, sober, with a beautiful use of typography), and identities, which use illustration into the logotypes. This is a rare way to design identities today, but I think it can be a very nice differenciation element in many cases.

Polyester Studio is a multidisciplinary design studio located in Toronto, Canada. If a large part of their works are motion graphics centered, the studio's portfolio shows nice works in the fields of identity, illustration and graphic design. There is an outstanding rough and original aspect in their works, which is brought by bright colours, intricate graphics and original typography choices.

Maxyme Delisle is a canadian photographer based in Montreal. His personnal website shows his works in the fields of edition or fashion, for which he shot many pictures. But I would like to talk about a more artistic part of his activities, through this article about his series "Christmas in New York city". A series shot in winter 2007 when the artist was selling Christmas trees in the Big Apple.
