MTO designed the brand identity for ‘Cultural City Yeongdeungpo’, a program running from 2022 to 2026. Based on research and a cultural branding strategy that reexamines the district beyond individual projects, the identity adopts a label concept rather than a conventional logo. The label is applied across all initiatives led by the center and attached to diverse content, marking and communicating Yeongdeungpo’s culture.

The main picture was taken in the heart of Seoul. As in some of my previous works, this is a collage of different analog photos I took, reinterpreted to capture the energy of this vibrant, beautiful city. At the center of attention, I placed a cat I encountered during the trip to symbolize my journey as a gentle observer. Gamsahamnida, Seoul, for all these beautiful memories.

Seoul-based designer Jung Hyun-ju explores diverse fields through graphic design.
She is currently researching Hangul lettering based on “hyukpil,” a traditional Korean calligraphic style.
She is currently publishing the “Daylight Collection” series, which documents daily life through visual language.

MTO designed the graphic identity, promotional materials, and festival space for ‘Namdo Film Festival Season 2 in Gwangyang’, a traveling festival held across regions. A modular Hangul pattern creates a puzzle-like visual rhythm, while a variable title system adapts across media. Extending Season 1, the poster features a container cinema symbolizing the city of light and steel, with blue contrasts and layered typography expressing experimentation and locality.

We are developing a monospace typeface called FWB MONO. It originated from lettering we created in 2025 for Club Prisma in Berlin.

We designed a movie poster for 3670, participating in the exhibition 100 Films 100 Posters, The 26th JEONJU International Film Festival. We highlighted how society makes us lonely, but we keep looking for relationships that are for relationships so close, yet so far.

In contemporary design, designers have practiced variable and transformative typographies exploring interconnected and hybrid systems. Such phenomena have also created type-driven landscapes where graphic designers have reflected on their multicultural, multi/ translingual, and liquid identities. Typo-Heterochronia: Seoul-Atlanta is designed to imagine a space-time where writing systems and typographic identities, Hangul (Korean) and English, intersect to respond to those design practices.

We designed the Catalogue for the exhibition “Digging Soundtracks: Music from Korean Films on LP, Cassette, and CD,” held by the Korean Film Archive from October 2, 2025, to January 31, 2026. In addition to track commentary, it includes a supplementary booklet featuring “My Personal Film Music Playlist” contributed by 15 figures from the cultural sector.

This project is the 2024 visual identity for Culture Station Seoul 284 RTO365. The graphic system reinterprets spatial experiences—light, shadow, and openness—into expandable modules. Based on three symbolic elements (circle, oval, and line), it visualizes the encounters and narratives formed within the cultural space, creating a flexible system that reflects the dynamic nature of the programs.

This project is the visual identity for the 30th anniversary of the Korea Sexual Violence Relief Center. The identity frames the anniversary as “water,” a force symbolizing energy and surface tension that enables solidarity. This concept is translated into a visual system that embodies the slogan: “Courage that creates cracks, change that permeates everyday life,” reflecting a mission for structural change.
