Louis Vuitton Styled Custom QR Code

The always-on Jean Snow posted an interesting tip on a groovy style QR Code campaign running for Louis Vuitton. Produced by SET, and designed by Takashi Murakami, this is definitely a level-up from the good old black & white standard. While we have covered several unusual 2D barcode offerings in the past, such as Design QR and Ishinokoe, this next-gen full color version certainly raises the bar.

It also leads us to wonder how the folks over at ColorZip [video here] will react, considering they claim to have secured IP covering all manners of color QR Codes, as it would seem at least somewhat disruptive to their established for-fee business model in this space. While we’re at it this sample of an embedded logo and Flash animated QR Code is also pretty cool!
