Studio Andrew Howard and André Cruz Studio designed the graphic identity for the 2023 edition of the Porto Design Biennale, which opened in October.
A visual identity animated on multiple media, based on Baste (from lift type), 3D water shapes and a background color that evolves in gradients.
From their Instagram post:
The first item we conceived for the 2023 edition was the digital poster. From the outset, rather than designing for print, we were set on first designing for digital animation with the idea that all printed/static materials would flow from this. The printed posters are stills from the animations.
Baste A Black is supported by Klim Type Foundry’s Untitled Sans.
