PHOTOGRAPHY

Benoit godberT

IdeaWhisk - Business card design

< Logo designs Lange Photography - Kevin Lange is a nature photographer, his main topic is the mountains. Benoit Godbert is a French cabinetmaker. For him I created a traditional style emblem, from which he can make a burning tool for furntiures. Aereon - Aereon General Trading LLC., Dubai, UAE. The company trades commodities of metal scrap, coal, iron-ore, gold and bulk commodities. For their design I chose the shades of these materials. The emblem has the character of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;?, as Aereon.

IdeaWhisk - Logo and poster design IdeaWhisk. Where the good ideas are cooked out. The emblem is a fresh sketch, which symbolizes the fresh, free ideas. Be born, twist, whirl, flash and... Heureka! The main steps of an ideaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

Victorinox Swiss Army Knife - Limited Edition - Graphic design I created warm and cozy designs about my favorite hunters with their prey. A cute polar bear and a penguin with fish, a fox with rabbit and a brown bear with honey. Be a hunter with Victorinox!

Midwest Refreshments - Postcard design Hot or cold? Sweet or salty? The Midwest Refreshments offers a wide range of hot and cold drinks, snacks and sweets for your office.

Rebeccaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cat - Ordered painting Watercolor-ink pet portrait < Manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s portrait - Fast, fresh, characteristic graphite portrait

ROLL-UP soap holder This soap holder has an unusual and striking appearance which breaks up with the routine. The shape is unified and clear, and easy to clean. These soft curves can fit any bathroom. Unconventional, dynamic. The planned material is ceramic with silicon cover. On the pictures you can see the glazed ceramic prototype.

Plywood jewel - Product and package design Handmade, steam bent plywood earrings made of different types of plywood – elegant, and youthful. The packaging has a playful shape. It is an “offering box” which lets curious people peek inside, but also protects the jewelry from damage. The box is also a greeting card with “from: …” and “to: …” on the back. We can write our personal message inside. < Jack Attack jewelery collection Extravagant, youthful jewel collection for technology enthusiasts. The earrings made of 3.5 jack and RCA plugs, male and female. I used “memory wire” for the necklace. This material is a specially shaped and hardened steel which always returns to its original shape. It is really easy to use, you can lock and unlock it with the male and female part of the plugs.

Handle - Full size wax study, precision exercise Made of beeswax, colored with iron oxide, graphite and carbon. < Shadow book - Development enhancing tools for children of different age groups It is indispensible to develop childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manual and verbal skills to teach them how to behave socially, to increase their self-confidence and help them express themselves. My topic was to design a development enhancing tool that playfully (based on the creation of shadows) helps children learn their way in the visual world.

Autumn-winter fashion collection Our task was to design an optional collection which has the following elements: trousers, top, and a dress. Earth colours and natural shapes inspired my design. I created elegant, clear patterns with special cutting lines. The big pockets on the dresses are made of the same piece as the base (skirt part). I like to combine different materials, here I mixed the knitted, hand dyed mixed wool pieces with mixed cotton fabric.

BLAO modular bedroom furniture family The task was to design a modular bedroom furniture family. During the design process, I had to consider the material and technical capabilities of the company. The main character of the furniture is a simple leaf motif, which can create different patterns. A kind of traditional sensation and a touch of modern, minimal style is combined on the furniture.

OMBRA plywood lamp OMBRA plays with the light to show you its secret pattern. Each piece has a unique, handmade graphic in two types: “The Spirit of the City”, “The Meadow”. The lamp made of two layers sycamore veneer, an elegant black porcelain socket and a three meters long, durable, textile covered wire.

KUBO stool Made of french walnut and french oak wood, mixed composite and patterned upholstery, high density foam. My family or friends often gather round the coffee table, but the low stools and small chairs are usually hard and uncomfortable. Instead many times we just throw pillows on the floor. My aim was to create a little chair, which is low enough to comfortably reach the coffee table, with a soft seat. Thus the KUBO was born. > Magnolia - Flower shop furniture family and interior design The intent of the design was to treat all the spaces and the furniture uniformly. I installed a â&#x20AC;&#x153;living plant wallâ&#x20AC;? onto the west wall of the shop. The staircase - leading to the warehouse and fridge - is also a display for the potted flowers.
