The Local Badass range is born from a profound appreciation for local communities and their pivotal role in cultural evolution. It’s a tribute to the skaters of each locale, who collectively shape and preserve the roller skate culture. The logo, bold and dynamic, mirrors the spirit of the roller skating scene, with vibrant colors and strong typography. It reflects the energy, passion, and individuality of participants who find expression and connection through this culture.

“Vivid Dreams” is a custom-made shirt that captures the essence of artistic expression and personal style. This garment features short sleeves and an all-over print, crafted from 100% viscose at 120 grams. The design highlights a captivating contrast between textured and distorted graphics, creating an engaging visual effect that aligns with the sleek, custom fit. This seamless fusion of patterns and materials elevates the shirt from a basic item to a unique and memorable fashion piece.

Proun Society is a virtual haute couture founded by Edwin Mohney. It breaks through limitations using AI to reinterpret fashion archives.

In this project, we integrated this approach into our design system by deconstructing and reassembling various languages strokes into novel visual symbols to create a fictional dictionary. This strategy aims to bridge communication gaps across disciplines, enriching the narrative with new layers.

A scarf with beautiful Ukrainian typography demonstrates an important inclination of Ukrainians to free will.

During her second semester of design studies, she collected various everyday objects and scanned them. The patterns were interesting, so she came up with the idea of designing a scarf. And that’s how this scarf came about. Because my friends and I liked it so much, I had it made. There are a few examples all over Germany. I’m always happy to wear it myself or see others wearing it. And if you look closely, you’ll see that the pattern is based on a scan of a screaming cat.

The Project is fully explained in the PDF. On the 29th April, more pictures of the project will be made in a beautiful library in Zürich. I’m looking forward to sending you those pictures aswell.

In Wilderness: Light Sizzles Around Me, I seek to create a linguistic and visual weaving of 15 historical figures (1591-1980) and their unique relationships to the wilderness. Sojourner Truth was electrified and grounded by her Vision of the Universe when there was an attempt to take her child from her. She is a heroine sown inside America’s stain of slavery who escaped slavery and shaped herself into a leader, an abolitionist, a feminist, a speaker before thousands.

This installation is the story of Dill’s encounter with Sister Gertrude and the Book of Revelations. Sister Gertrude Morgan was a preacher, artist, musician and poet who worked in New Orleans in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Morgan was primarily noted for her folk art. She had a vision that she was to commit her life to Christ, and she was to wear only white as she was now the Bride of Jesus. Brightly colored fabric words, Glory, Power, Revelation, etc. are hand sewn onto the white dress.

This dress is part of the story of Dill’s encounter with Sister Gertrude and the Book of Revelations. Sister Gertrude Morgan was a preacher, artist, musician and poet who worked in New Orleans in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Morgan was primarily noted for her folk art. The black dress references Sister Gertrude’s years teaching in the orphanage and what she wore. The words Heaven & Hell in red and white hand sewn letters are the only words on this dress.

Big Gal Faith, is the central figure in Faith & the Devil, a large-scale installation which investigates the philosophical and existential conundrums of evil and underlying faith in the world. Her wild word hair and lavish twenty-six foot wide dress of drawn images and words express the main themes of the exhibit: cruelty and violence, lust, forgiveness, reflection, and transcendence.

For this project I researched Ukrainian work produced during previous times of war. To ensure my design communicated, I wanted to combine elements of Ukrainian ethnicity and national tradition with motifs associated with current mass market design.
This is my personal contribution to the struggle for the freedom of my country.

What, Lorem Ipsum is not real Latin?

I am popular and powerful. Society accepts me. My work is important. I am seen. Everyone listens to me. I <3 ME is a project about privilege, oppression and abuse of power. It plays with the underlying meaning of a suit. The ironic shift that happens when applying the privileges of a white cis-gender male onto a minority, makes the observer question their own position.

The present is full of problems, the zeitgeist is confused and scared, the day is full of experience. The way of seeing is the process of translating visual informations. The question of the significance of the visual is negotiated in many places and within many discourses at the same time. Seeking a conclusive answer feels urgent, yet acknowledging underlying issues and their implications may suffice.Three vestments one attempt.

Police violence has endured through the ages, these shirts are regarded as a bold proclamation against such brutality.

New York ain’t Berlin, Paris ain’t Berlin, Frankfurt ain’t Berlin – and neither is Offenbach. Yet we take pride in running a club for 23 years now that most of you wouldn’t expect to be situated in Frankfurt’s not so popular neighbor city.

Making mistakes is the best way to learn.

Is Normecore still a thing in graphic design and fashion? Is it just an outdated trend or a permanent counter-movement to overloaded visual aesthetics? This is the first drop [1/4] of a small, experimental collection series. The longsleeve is durable with a thick neck, thick elastic sleeve cuffs and boxier cut.
