MEET BAUMANN: CRAIG BOYLAN'S PLASTIC MAN WHO CAN DO JUST ABOUT ANYTHING

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Inspired by the minimalist principles of the Bauhaus, Liverpool illustrator Craig Boylan developed a distinctive style around a flexible toy-like character called Baumann. The customizable figure—used in projects like branding for Verdant Brewery and illustrations for BBC Science Focus Magazine—allows Boylan to express playful visuals with deeper conceptual themes. He hopes to expand the character into physical art toys and larger installations.
