with PARAT.cc (Jonas Beuchert,
Tilman Schlevogt & Johanna Wenger)
Winning proposal as part of a pitch for Gasteig, Europe’s biggest cultural center in Munich, made with PARAT.cc. The goal was to develop a CD system, in order to avoid confusion between events that the Gasteig hosts and offers. As a nod to the old logo, we designed a type system with brackets as a frame that allows type compositions in the center reacting to what is being promoted. It’s been designed to be flexible and responsive.

Poster series, 2021
Self-initiated
This poster series emerged out of a commission for a magazine celebrating 20 years of the Swiss music festival Festi’neuch in 2021 (hence the name “MF21” for Magazine Festi’neuch 2021). Using only typography in b/w, the posters extract and remix various content from the magazine into a poster format. It’s a way of rediscovering the experience of the magazine in a different way.

Modular identity system developed for Matière Vive, a Swiss based practice specialised in digital media and websites. The logotype is composed on a dots grid that allow to write their initials “MV” in various different ways, reflecting the variety of their work and the ability to adapt themselves in any kind of constraints within a project. The use of only lowercases refer to the web designer’s way of typing code.
Everett Lukumí
Custom type design, 2017
Diccionario Lukumí-Español offers a modern perspective on the Lukumí language, which is used mainly by the Yoruba community in Cuba during Santería ceremonies. Lukumí is an hybrid language, mixed of Spanish and African Yoruba. Commissioned by the designer Laura-Issé Tusevo, I developed a custom version of my Everett typeface for the publication. Based on the most recurrent letters in Lukumí, the typeface plays with double letters and thin punctuation, creating surprising rhythms throughout the various definitions of the dictionary.
PUCH Open Air

“Familial” describes best the atmosphere of the PUCH festival.
