The Tridea Project

This book, The Tridea Project: Culturally Diverse Co-Creation, documents the brand's conception and its subsequent evolution. The content consists of three chapters, first an overview of the project and its creator. Second a detailed brand guidelines and thirdly a visual essay, discussing the brand values of inclusion and diversity, both of which have been pivotal factors to this 4 year research project. The book design has been crafted with materiality in mind and each aspect has been considered and contemplated to metaphorically represent the project values.

Visual Identity

Bank of England

Designing for a central bank means finding a balance between technical and sensitive information, staff-led outputs, engaging general communications, and a series of regulations. This is not simple to achieve and it is based on delicate internal dynamics. The new identity has been developed together with the people who will use it, balancing all the aspects of the communications. It focuses on reaching a wider public with an accessible, relevant, structured, and distinctive approach. These key principles have been used as a design direction for all the visual assets.

Wayfinding Signage System

Friday, 15 November 2024

Shenzhen Jiangangshan Hill Park

Henri Rousseau's impressionist style is ingeniously applied as the main visual elements into this project. Wayfinding signs are designed as interesting impressionist-illustration silhouettes here and there in the park, creating a tranquil eco-friendly hilly aura for visitors. The artist's thoughts and the project's purposes are brought into resonance by the concept of harmony between human and nature.

Afterimages

The graphic design concept and visual communication for the Afterimages art magazine is coherent: from logo, identity to the layout. The main goal of the project was to tackle with the legacy of the Strzeminski Academy of Fine Arts in Lodz and create a modern version of it that stems from the avant-garde tradition. Rough quality paper, dry-stamping technique, the printing colour (Pantone) applied to the cover, corresponds to the topic of each issue. The magazine is richly illustrated, filled with quality photos, and in this respect it resembles life style magazine.

Typographic Brand Identity

Wednesday, 13 November 2024

Moscow Ambassadors School

Interesting stories are hidden behind every turn of the old streets and it is impossible to associate the City with any one minimal set of recognizable symbols. While studying the city, the future ambassador discovers it anew, like a student discovers a primer at school. For the construction of the identity, a typographic solution was chosen, based on the principle of typographic eclecticism: the Old National script, interspersed with the cursive script and recognizable fonts of the avant-garde artists. The color scheme is laconic-bright red.

Q Shinsyu Apple Pie Lab

These are branding projects for Q, an apple pie specialty store. The typography of the store's name, Q, was created using the apple as a motif and symbol for the store. All brand tools, including the exterior, interior, lighting, stools, uniforms, and packaging, were designed using this simple symbol. In keeping with the product concept of utilizing materials as they are, the tools are also designed simply, utilizing the colors and textures of the materials, such as paper and wood, as they are. All designs are in line with the store's vision of valuing the original taste of apples.
