Insecta Iridesse

Insecta Iridesse is a print sales catalogue created to present metallic printing effects. The catalogue replaces the standard colour swatch with a fictional explorer's journal that documents imaginary rare insect species. Thirty gem-like jewellery pieces, including bracelets, necklaces, hairpieces, earrings and brooches, are made almost entirely of paper and printed with speciality gold, silver and white inks. The folio holds folded maps, tickets, newspaper clippings and certificates on coated and uncoated paper stock. Viewers are invited to inspect each print effect closely.

Across

Across is a poster created for a digital art festival dedicated to the rock art of the Helan Mountains in China. The poster is printed on lenticular material. One image shows the original Helan Mountain motif and the other shows a modern digital version of the same motif. As the viewing angle changes, the ancient motif fades and the digital motif appears. The traditional image was painted with a mixture of ink, tea, gelatine and gold powder, applied by splashing to create a texture similar to rock. Across aims to preserve and share an endangered ancient culture.

Archadia

Archadia is a brand identity created for a higher education school of architecture based in Venice, Italy. The symbol is a stylized letter A, split into two solid volumes to suggest both stability and movement. The letter A stands for the brand name and also for academy, architecture and abitare, the Italian word for living. The form is built from an equilateral triangle inscribed in an isosceles triangle. The blue color reflects the institutional role of the school and the water of the Venice lagoon. The vector logo works on light and dark backgrounds.

Wind Art Museum

Wind Art Museum is a logo created for an art space in Xi'an that combines on-site creation, art exhibitions and aesthetic education. The mark is built from the Chinese character for beauty, which serves as the main memory graphic. Varying line thickness makes the character appear to be blown by the wind, linking the form directly to the name of the museum. The design was produced with computer graphics. The intent is a simple and distinctive symbol that expresses the character of the museum and remains easy to recognise and recall.
