Gu Yue Long Shan is the largest group of traditional yellow wine in China, founded in 1664. The new product they created for Gu Yue Long Shan, conveys the idea of enjoying slow time. The graphic design is based on the concepts of water, snow, glutinous rice and time, which are essential in yellow wine, and depicts the local mountains and water to form a complete picture.
Diplomatic Relations is a logo created for the German Embassy in Vilnius. The design symbolizes the ties between Lithuania and Germany. Inspired by the tricolor national flags, three check marks were drawn for each country in the colors of its flag. The marks run as two parallel sides, like train tracks that move apart and then come together again. The red check marks are combined to represent friendship and unity. The colored symbol is placed on a white background and can be applied to stationery, outdoor advertising and corporate gifts. Repeating the symbol in a line forms a pattern.
Neon Nights is an event design created for a fashion trade fair in Hong Kong. The concept combines current fashion colour trends with the look of retro Hong Kong neon street signs. Three areas were designed. A welcome installation stands at the main entrance of the venue. The entry of the exhibition hall received a matching treatment. Inside the hall, a 300 square metre multifunctional space hosts fashion shows, seminars and informal meetings. Metal frames with die cut patterns, backlit coloured panels and neon style signs shape the vibrant look.
An innovative, unusual and carefree design to define the identity of these wines. A geometric design that takes its cue from the seventies and enriches it with iconographic elements that represent the characteristics of the Sardinian territory. The design of these labels is studied to give a tactile effect when the bottle is removed, thanks to the paper of the label and the embossing of some parts of it. The goal is to communicate a fresh and youthful, carefree and immediate design suitable for a young audience looking for a quality wine with an intriguing appeal.
Role is a corporate identity designed for a video production agency. The identity works in motion and in still formats. The symbol is built on a rectangular shape, inspired by the rectangular forms common in cameras, clapboards and screens. The letter o is cut in half, recalling old film rolls. In motion, the symbol rolls continuously, linking the mark to the name Role, which comes from a Portuguese verb meaning to roll. All printed pieces were made using the Golden Ratio. The identity conveys energy and movement across many applications.
Bel Gusto is a packaging design for a line of fresh pasta made from durum wheat. The packaging is styled as a postal parcel sent from Italy. Postage stamps, postmarks, hand-drawn illustrations of Italian historical places and an imitation of kraft paper are used. A viewing window allows the buyer to see the pasta inside the box before purchase. Colored stripes of the same saturation and brightness separate the different pasta shapes within the line. The packages are printed on PET film with selective varnish.
