KIOSK
Visual Identity for KIOSK
Playfulness, ‘odd’ typefaces, a strict grid and a touch of colour form the basis for this identity.
In Conversation About
Communication campaign for
the Graduation Show of the Sandberg Design Department.
In collaboration with Agata Jaworska, Ruben Baart, Roos Groothuizen & Anan Striker.
A Religion, La Mafia
A fictional identity for the Italian
Mafia. But how to design a secret
and hidden identity? How to design
an identity if nothing can be visual?
The answer is an identity that is
based on verbal communication
and gestures.
A chain of Italian restaurants
serves as cover-up. Members of
the Mafia communicate based on
the act of speaking, eating and of
ordering food. The menu serves
as the identity manual.
