Projects
  • Brokat
    BrokatMy take on Brokat font created by Boafff. In Polish “Brokat” means Glitter. I was invited among other designers to create something with it. The idea was to materialize digital file into the physical object. Like the typecreators back in the days were meticulously shaping small pieces of metal to create the whole alphabets, I cut two glyphs from a small sheet of copper.
  • nananana
    nanananaLogotype propsals for a fashion brand Nananana which wants to promote veganism within the apparel world. One of the material used for the clothes is Piñatex – vegan leather made of pineapple leaf fibre. This fruit served as a main inspiration for a typography.
  • Continuity
