Design as a process is rarely linear and is often frustrating, seen as a “mess” or a constant work-in-progress. This project treats the process itself, through multiple iterations of the artist’s modular M, as the work, shifting focus from the final outcome to the beauty and significance of development. The resulting piece playfully acknowledges the long, frustrating journey of the project, turning the evolving letterforms into a humorous dance shaped by this trial and error.
Modular eM
This project explores typographic weight through a textured modular system. The letter M is developed in three weights not by altering stroke thickness linearly, but by diffusing and splitting its modules. Visual weight is expressed through density, rhythm, and colour, allowing the letterform to shift between solid form and textured surface.
Oh, Deer
Created for a tragic theatrical play, this poster uses embroidery as a lettering technique. The title and subtitle are stitched onto linen with thick cotton yarn, while loose, untied threads suggest fragility, interruption, and abrupt endings. The deer functions as a symbol of enduring love, with textile materiality reinforcing themes of vulnerability and emotional permanence.
Inkwell Eyes
This poster is a typographic self-portrait composed of handwritten marks made with four markers of different states and thicknesses. Intimate and diaristic, it resembles notes in the margins of everyday life. The title refers both to the artist’s eye color and to walnut ink as a favored material, merging physical identity with personal practice and affection for the medium.
Smoke and Mirrors
These posters explore stage magic through material process. Hand-drawn lettering is written with a charred stick, while coal dust and debris become both texture and meaning. Untouched and smeared coal marks reference smoke, illusion, and transformation, playing with visual stereotypes of magic: appearance and disappearance, black and white, and the act of hiding meaning through material traces.
gravitype
A fusion of Gravity and Typography, gravitype explores the forces governing visual form. Once, letters were metal shards with undeniable mass. Today, they are weightless symbols. This project reclaims that lost substance through digital gravity simulations.
By decomposing a typeface’s vertices, computational gravity creates organic forms beyond control. It is a journey to restore the letter-as-symbol into a “physical object.” In these traces, we find a new sense of touch for the digital era.
NONO
NONO is an User and Brand Experience for cacti and succulents. A big part of this branding is the house Mono Type “NONO MONO”, a flexible Type meant to be used as a frame for the cacti. While mirroring the organic shape, the fleshy water filed bodies and the sharp thin spikes in its growth alt glyphs. “NONO MONO” can be used as an irregular pattern or as a single letter in different growth states of the alt glyphs.
D6
The typeface is rooted in an obsession with dice and the search for expressive tools in the everyday. Built by stacking dice, it explores the challenge of balancing legibility while using the smallest possible number of elements. Each face, position, and number of pips defines the construction of glyphs. Variable axes allow adjustments to pips and edges, resulting in robust, double-line letters that invite designers to play.
Become Senseless
Humans are bombarded with senses every day: touch, sight, and sound. Becoming senseless is the only method for a person to protect their individuality, to reject foreign stimuli and retreat into one’s inner being.
The work is a guide into meditation; we see a ruined world, distorted beyond understanding. By concentrating on becoming senseless, we dispel the distortion. With enough concentration, our will can force change into the world. To become senseless, to master life. To live.
EX.26 / »Experimental Design – Our Way to Typography«
The exhibition “Experimental Design – Our Way to Typography” showcases first-semester student poster designs from the 2025-26 winter semester of the “Experimental Design” module at Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences along with original posters from Wolfgang Weingart. The exhibition poster design follows the students’ collaborative as well as iterative design process and is simultaneously a homage to Wolfgang Weingart’s design method.
G for Gestures
The theme of my work is human gestures and their varied expressions in individuals. The poster was created using techniques I have been experimenting with recently – 3D renders, textures, and reflections – which have come to characterize my artistic style and creative gestures.
wow fonts
Very cool, super fresh, and free fonts created by secondary school students using ordinary objects such as mustard, spaghetti, and Play-Doh. Because of our infinite relationships, potentialities are there. The shapes of form are not yet exhausted, and there are no miracles beyond living matter, they said.
Fonts created by Lena, Lilli, Mira, Paula, Ilian, Joel, Tanel, Jonas, Jonas, Ana-Maria, Camila, Aaron, Max, Ben, Ben, Eric, Fiete, Amalia, Lilia, Vlad, Darlin, and Liia.
High effort, low returns
This illustration uses learnings from basic public signage. The composition is arranged to allow the viewer to capture what’s essential at first glimpse.
The lettering uses these learnings as well. However, it takes a few gestural detours, bringing the basic stroke-based font closer to impulsive handwriting.
As stated, that extra effort does not pay off: all the decoration brings a font — that could have been constructed with a just a few anchor points — closer towards illegibility.
Roll every dice in the room
Randomness plays a key role in the studios’ design practice.
As do grids, which are guardrails for construction, meant to be broken at a certain point to avoid flatness.
The dice allows disruption while within the grid, yet sticking to its rules having 6 paths to go from here.
This font was created on a fixed grid with basic elements, challenging traditional typographic paths on the verge legibility.
Basel Reversed
Basel Reversed defies typographic norms with a consistent 21.5° backslant. Rooted in my left-leaning handwriting and Basel’s industrial architecture, this display font merges humanist italics with harsh, geometric stems. The lowercase-only design emphasizes a fluid, rhythmic gesture within a rigid grid. It functions as a concept-based system, translating a personal idiosyncrasy into a systematic, architectural framework that explores the tension between organic flow and structure.
Natłok
NATŁOK is a typographic experiment created through the multiplication of a zigzag-shaped outline. Using special settings, a very wide stroke was configured, composed of smooth, rhythmic zigzags, which was then duplicated and densified. As a result, the typographic sign acquired a heavy, fleshy, slightly abstract, tar-like form with a distinctly material character.
Lingua Arboris
Lingua Arboris gives voice to the silent victims of global warming, presenting an asemic dialogue between trees and climate change — a language beyond words.
Le Baiser – Malfra
A complete art direction was developed to accompany Malfra, from the cover of his single to that of his EP Le Baiser. A custom logo and three original typographies were created: one for the EP and two for the singles, which were also integrated into their music videos. Le Baiser, the title of the EP, echoes a sculpture made by his grandmother and reflects recurring themes of love and human relationships, exploring family heritage and its influence on our own stories.
CT_SANS
CT_SANS applies medical CT scan methodology to typography. Letters are treated as a three-dimensional specimen, sliced layer by layer to reveal thier internal structure. The animated version shows this process over time, while static variants capture individual cross-sections as finished letterforms.
Available in Sans, Serif, and Mono, each letter has a unique volumetric & temporal signature—defined by how the scan plane moves through it and the density of information at different depths.
Bug
In this project I was discovering the possibilities of the glitch effect in typography. As I was playing with the different opacities, layers and negative spaces of the letter ‘O’, I suddenly realized I also created a shape that resembles an insect, a bug, which is also a common synonym used for glitch.
New Year, New Attempts
This work is about attempts, failures, and trying again.
The words NEW YEAR are written with a toothbrush to lose control and make them imperfect.
Each new year of our life is only a series of attempts.
It will not be perfect, and it does not need to be.
It will be special, alive, and it will be a new step forward.
Typestry_02
A complex piece which started off as a riso printing project during a workshop with Radek Górniak at Slopi Kopi during fig festival, Sofia.
P |_ /\ Y
P |_ /\ Y is an experimental exploration built in After Effects.
Alongside it, I built a simple HTML tool to import video, generate graphic compositions, and introduce subtle typographic details.
