Titles, posters and credits for Dopamina, a fashion film directed by Nico Corvino and Sofia Tormenta for the Sabrina Ol brand in Mexico City.

We chose Monjiro for the title due to the its nature – hard to read, but fluid. And we used Serial Typewriter Compressed Emboss for the text, trying to simulate the emboss effect on metal. Both typefaces work really well with metal texture and low-contrast colors.

LILAMORS is a new project of old friends. With their latest album, When I Am Dead, My Dearest, they are presenting a new member, a new name, and new aesthetics.

The band name is based on a slightly edited Sword by Kazuhiro Aihara.
Eiko is the text typeface used on the back and on the labels.

The design is based on a black-and-white contrast made in 1-color offset printing. There are 200 unique covers with different numbers and combinations on custom hand-carved holographic foil illustrations.

The band members are Ana Čop (vocals), Thilo Seevers (piano), and Jaka Arh (sound processing, electronics). The album was recorded by Daniel Somaroo at Jazzcampus Basel, Switzerland. Martin Ruch did the mastering and Daniel Dettwiler the mixing.

Founded in 2018 by Anaïs Allias and Margaux Salarino (Temple Office), Temple is a cross-disciplinary platform on art, fashion, design and innovation with an annual publication. It presents contemporary designers and artists. The images are constructed by a principle of appropriation, re-intervention and collages made from the contributions sent.

Issue 11 of Temple magazine is titled “Made in Japon” and was launched on April 5th, 2023. The magazine was designed by Anaïs Allias and Margaux Salarino and curated together with Mathieu Buard. Contributors to this issue are Jon Rafman, HEAD – Genève, Neïl Beloufa, Mall Grab, Hanayo, Jeremy Benkemoun, Adabana Bloom, Salomé Chatriot, Gaspar Willmann, Julien Magalhaes, Sarah Makharine, Émile Kirsch, Mengche Chiang, Florent Cornier, Muse, Clara Ziegler, Charlotte Haulot, D-E-A-L, Matthieu Michaut, and Agga Stage.

“Now.Here No.Here” mixes capitals of Astro with lowercase letters from OCR-PBI Print Italic. The running text is set in (the Latin part of) PingFang.

The blocky letters for “Adabana Bloom” are from Forward.

“Hanayo” uses the italic style of Caramel.

Ultima Floración is the latest EP of Arcane Prospect, an electronic music (techno) project that seeks to reflect the ephemeral but beautiful melancholy that constant life has. In order to express this feeling I used Arachne that, thanks to its serifs, reflects the melancholy. I modified it, turning it into a more vertically extended version that will occupy the entire format to signify a statement of this moment. At the same time a superposition of the letters u and f set in Sword will generate a relationship with the Artificio record label which produced the record. On the back a composition using Telegraf and Fit adds an interesting contrast by dividing each of the songs.

Artificio’s Mix Tape Vol 01, ft. PT Mono.

Artificio is an independent electronic music record label, established in Antioquia, Colombia, using vinyl records for its mixes.

Being a label that was born during the pandemic, Artificio chooses to express the idea of ​​sound as a detonation that transmutes the body and allows to reconstruct a devastated world. It sought to communicate this concept of transmutation in the logo, through the superposition of two typefaces, Elastik and Sword.

From Saturnalia:

Inksist’s crew and its guests will take care of your soul and your inner desires. Pass by our clinique and take a pause while exploring every corner of the orgiastic enthusiasm of #Saturnalia2019. We will be at the same place, on the first floor. Take a deep breath and follow the parfume of the flowers, follow the white light, dance to the rythm of the machine, lose and free yourself. We will help your inner imaginary to emerge from your skin. Islands will take their form where they always were supposed to be.

This flyer was made for GX7M+5R, an event organised during the first semester of the Master course Communication Design at the HAW Hamburg (Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Hamburg). The event was designed to be a “space outside all spaces” which provided a platform for utopian ideas and concepts that aim to incite exchange and discussion about various topics. Detached from the consideration of feasibility GX7M+5R motivated to think and speculate about subjects such as ecology and urbanity in the context of Wilhelmsburg, an especially culturally diverse part of Hamburg. The event was a hybrid between exhibition and discussion workshop.

The graphic design for the event was devised and realised by Canan Bunk, Franziska Schmidt and Julian Stiber. They made use of the typefaces Termina by Mattox Shuler, Sword by Kazuhiro Aihara, 12:51 by Colin Doerffler and Oroban Masuria Italic by Blaze Type.
