Tampieri is an important industrial group, leader in different fields. Sign and colour form a single system of meaning and relationship that conveys the values of the multifaceted Tampieri universe.
For their traditional open-day, under the guidance of +fortuna it was decided to break away from the traditional form of communication linked to photography and introduce colourful illustrations with the industry skyline. A set of identical images coloured with different palettes of complementary colours, inspired by the contrasting combinations typical of Pop Art. The diverse activities referring to the same group are so emphasised by Andy Warhol’s detached and iconic use of polychromy.
King – Ice cream in a cup
After being consumed exclusively as a premium ice cream bar for many years, famous European ice cream brand King, for the first time on the market it is available as the dessert in a cup. The change in format required a noticeable, playful and contemporary design. A stylized shape of the crown was used, which symbolically communicates how the moment we consume our King in a cup turns into: a royal moment. The product comes in 4 flavors, but the classic ways of displaying flavors to which the manufacturer has been accustomed so far (photos of ingredients), now has been replaced by the emotion that ice cream provides and the suggestion of flavors is given by a thoughtful choice of colors.
Mid-quarantine dream. A sweet escape
During the pandemic and the first lockdown, people hung messages of hope outside their windows, posters with a hand-drawn rainbow and the words “everything will be alright” written on them. I found myself dreaming that those rainbows would turn into bridges to escape with the imagination from the walls that at times seemed to imprison us. Moreover, I wished they would lead us to a new world, in the hope that this terrible situation could be transformed into a positive drive for global renewal.
Interfaces 1
fractals and mandalas as visual representations of mathematicals principles fascinate me. pushing my analog pixel art into this area of op art/minimalism, i am researching the effects of acrylic colors on canvas. the work is created digitally beforehand, therefore printed in RGB. in the process, i try to get as close as possible to the digital sketch, naturally failing in greens and orange. i consider this an experiment in creating visual stimulus for experiencing an area beyond thought, therefore the naming interfaces.
Radiant Philistinism
In the virtual room installation “Radiant Philistinism”, which was realized using 3D software, I contrast various lifestyles. Dignified ambience meets neon tubes that proliferate in the room. Lighting moods inspired by works of Dan Flavin. A place that seems surreal and familiar at the same time. We celebrate color, we celebrate diversity!
Spectrum
A sketchbook collection Spectrum is a celebration of vibrant colours and variety. Inspired by the word itself and meaning behind, I wanted to showcase Spectrum as a unified set where each individual product is represented by a strong and bold colour. Taking this meaning a little bit further, Spectrum also as variety of opinions and meaning. Technically speaking each single sketchbook is made using a sole section case binding technique where the text block consists of 64 pages of 100gsm Fedrigoni Arcoprint Milk Blank Paper, end sleeves are decorated with Arabic and Islamic patterned paper and hard cover itself is wrapped in solid full colour book cloth.

36 days of type 08
The work is based on the outcome of the 36daysoftype challenge on instagram. The difference from other type projects is that only one letter was designed per day instead of designing a group of letters from the beginning. I started early to make variants of each letter though, which makes the typeface more versatile and flexible to use. I experimented with simple and geometric shapes and reused those shapes for the following letter whenever possible. The typeface grew slowly and became playful, funny and funky. Since I love playing with colors as well, color became another important element in the series for 36daysoftype.
colour this with colour
The joy of colour comes from it’s ability to expand, clash and mix together. This is an attempt at creating a space for colour to shows it ability as a autonomous tool. Much needed space for judgment free creation of colour.

Double Meaning Queen – Alio™ Pro Type Specimen
This is a type specimen poster for the Alio™ Pro typeface. We would like to showcase the unique design of the letters – inspired by sleek sans serifs and flowing cursives – to create fun vibes.
Tabelle 2 zu “Auf der Leitung stehen”
The table displays daily recorded telephone times of a relationship and structures them according to a colour code.
Neon Sun Beam
Color and type is a powerful combination. At the same time, the elementary and serving character of typography usually requires a limitation to a single color. That is why the design of polychrome (multi color) fonts is still a niche. The polychrome font TR Grind contains 12 layers that can be colored and combined in any way. The character is inspired by wood type styles, geometric patterns and modernist shapes. Depending on the configuration of the layers, the font conveys a variety of tones. TR Grind is currently designed as an uppercase font which includes a Latin Extended character set.

Synesthetic Trip
A visualization of synesthetic perception. A feeling of an unbearable connection between months of the year and colors. My interpretation of how words, letters, numbers and shapes can trigger a vivid color experience.
Cubio™ Mono Type Specimen
Here’s a type specimen poster for the Cubio™ Mono font family from R9 Type+Design. With the hexagonal silhouette as our inspiration, we applied this angular form through all aspects. This includes the overall look of the letters, patterns and icons to the terminal of each letter stem.
Colour Animé
I have explored how fields of flat colours change, interact and become three-dimensional depending on the relation to one another.
The Art of Typography – Aldero™ Type Specimen
This book spread was created as a type specimen for our latest typeface, Aldero™. With five weights, ten styles and 1,100+ glyphs per style, this font family is excellent as a display type and legible and readable in small sizes.
SculptPuzzle
The SculptPuzzle is part of a process (see also Colour Animé poster) where I had a wish to create patterns to interact and build with. I experimented with one shape (based on a square divide in four) to make flat colour patterns and three-dimensional puzzle sculptures with.
I explored how flat shapes could translate into three-dimensional shapes. I explore how colours change depending on relation to one another and depending on the light that hit it.
