• SWEAR NewsletterThis was just a quick exercise i've done a while ago based on the brand SWEAR. I've imagined how a newsletter about one of their main products would be like. I've chose the "Olly 10" high top sneakers because i like the simplicity and the neutral color. I've used "Avenir Next" for the main font because has round but impactful forms as the sneaker itself. Hope you like it!

  Nike: ReactlandThe background How do you truly test out the new Nike React shoes? By running in them, of course. But Wieden+Kennedy Shanghai didn’t just want to take Nike fans on a same-old-same-old run—they wanted to create an experience people would never forget. We were invited to build an installation across China that runners couldn’t stop talking about. It’s a real-time video game, and the players are the fans.
