This series includes posters for cultural events in Bern and Fribourg, Switzerland. Due to the pandemic, these events did not take place.
In my designs I focused on adding effects to the typography, disrupting it and making it unreadable. With repetitions and overlays I worked to create rhythm.

The Lost in Translation project transform a particular typeface from its readable meaning into visual language. In the process of transformation, the primary readable form evolves into an unreadable one having its own visual language. The research used a custom-made Serbian Cyrillic typography inspired by Architype Van Doesburg typeface. Project combines a creative process of applying a visual intervention into the existing road markings of a pedestrian crossing. Application of the design research process was conducted in cooperation with 58th October Salon international art exhibition in Belgrade, Serbia. Lost in Translation project was made by Eduard Cehovin and Tanja Devetak.

‘A – Aerial’ allows viewers to experience an immersive journey deep in the heart of an imposing city. The viewer is lost in the scale of the urban chaos, staring upwards at the never ending lines. Then, just for a fleeting second, the buildings align to form the letter A.

The film explores brief moments of clarity within intense urban environments. Using CGI, we were able to bring this imaginary world to life. We used the technique of anamorphosis, in which careful compositions and changing perspectives are used to create moments of order within chaos and complexity. Here, the recognisable form of Letter A can only be interpreted from a certain vantage point at a certain moment in time.

‘X – Extrusion’ is set in Syon House, Robert Adam’s Neoclassical masterpiece. Within the project, light, perspective, movement and form are extruded to create one brief moment of clarity out of rotation, chaos, and vacancy. Using a combination of live-action and CGI, the location, Syon House in West London, was captured digitally and filmically. A three-meter custom-built light bar, mounted to a motion control rig, was used to rhythmically illuminate the room. This is a still from the film showing the brief moment letter X appears in the space.

GranulR is a logo proposal (unused) created as part of the branding of a specialty coffee start-up from Romania.

I have created the logo from scratch, it’s a completely custom logotype and it hints to mysticism, ancient symbolism, chemistry and uniqueness. The background image is also my own work.

Optical Arts is a creative studio based in London. With an experimental approach and a collective spirit, we explore new ways to tell visual stories, applying innovative techniques to live-action, digital, and print. Our Alphabet Series is an experimental project, which provides the opportunity for our creatives to test and showcase new ideas and techniques.

‘Letter S’ is a study into the relief of a letter form over time. The project mimics the darkroom process that early artist and graphic designer Karel Teig would have used to create his 1926 avant-garde alphabet collages. Much in the same way as the photographic paper starts to reveal its image in the darkroom, our sculpture still requires human intervention and judgment to allow these forms to submerge and surface.

‘U – Utopia’ presents a journey through an imaginary take on the Mausoleum in Chandigarh, Le Corbusier’s modernist city in Northern India. A cross-sectional perspective is used to show the changing environments, revealing the building and the characters navigating the complex concrete structure.

The film was inspired by architectural perspective illustrations, first developed in the renaissance period and still used in the present day. The building was designed in collaboration with an architect to create a functional structure, which incorporates the form of the letter ‘U’ in the final frame.

These posters were purely an experiment—a chance to disregard rules and explore a process of creating with limited constraints and without concessions to accessible communication, typographic legibility, or conventional style. More art than design. The rules were: 1) Design one poster each evening, within an approximate two-hour time limit, using only typography. 2) Make each poster stylistically different, using only black and white to unify the different executions.

“ITATI” BOOK COVER.
“Is That All There Is” by Bruce Turkel.

In the spirit of the title, the book cover design teases the title by only showing half of the “ITATI” initials. It is only fully revealed when putting it next to another book or next to a mirror.

A very heavy headline only typeface which should be typeset at rather large type sizes due to its fine counters.

It’s the ideal typeface for building a brick-wall out of letters.

Surprise is in the details, so play it loud and big! It’s fun.

“Successful Failures” was an exhibition celebrating thirty years of intertwined projects from thousands of contributors, featuring publications, programs, festivals, restaurants, breweries, and beyond. Its living logotype was born out of this spirit of collaboration.

For each of the letters in the name, multiple letterforms were illustrated and built into a working font that exhibition designers could combine as they saw fit. On-site and in collateral, the same instance of the mark seldom appeared twice. It was designed to be a “Successful Failure” of sorts—not every permutation worked perfectly, but each embodied the fearless nature of the work it was designed to represent.

The Romanian Cultural Institute in Vienna organized Hot Romania – a 4 day festival bringing together the very best of Romanian jazz in the heart of Vienna. Because the festival was held in a humid and slightly cold September the design of the poster seemed very reasonable to be visually directed towards an “as hot as possible” visual click.

The cultural heritage of the Higher Artistic and Technical Studios (VKhUTEMAS, aka “Soviet Bauhaus”), laid the foundation for design in Russia. In the 1920s students and professors of VKhUTEMAS boldly reshaped the art education system.
But with all the innovations, such an iconic phenomenon as VKhUTEMAS did not have its own visual identity. 100 years later we decided to fill this void. Inspired by the work of teachers and students involved in printing, we have created a unique typeface. VKHUTETYPE is a key element of the visual identity of the VKHUTEMAS.ACADEMY – a digital project that revives the original spirit and excellence of VKhUTEMAS through new media formats.

I have been designing the JazzTM’s communication materials for 4 consecutive years. In time a concrete visual language surfaced which encouraged the discovery of a structured framework while allowing for the freedom of expression for each jazz festival in itself. Kinda like jazz altogether. In the poster series that I designed for the 2018 JazzTM festival the fluidity of time was chosen to visually deliver that year’s voice.
