branding

This conceptual product keeps beverages carbonated. The design is associated closely with the purpose of the product, by using literal visual elements. These elements force a kind of engagement with the consumer. The logo elements are simple in contrast to the bright photography paired with the logo.

THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG STEIPE

DISPLAY TYPEFACE DESIGN

Steipe is a display typeface I designed while studying in Trier, Germany. I was inspired by the acute angles of the architecture in Trier. The sharp roof of one of the buildings in Trier is called steipe. This typeface was inspired by old, Gothic architecture, but in contrast functions in modern environment.
