WE ARE ALL EMOTIONAL

Visual identity of a Performance Festival

“Emotions – be they highs or lows – are coded into the social media platforms on which we spend so much of our lives and which thrive on our emotional engagement, as our own emoticons remind us every day. (…) We react emotionally to what is happening around us, but sometimes it seems as if the ways in which we react make us incapable of dealing with the problems at hand.“

Because of the theme we wanted to design an identity which would feel somehow intense and urgent. Through using exclamation and question marks with an orange phosporecent color within the whole communication, the identity of the festival became sort of noisy, anxious and a bit passive aggressive.

2019, Prague

The visual identity was based on claims from various unboxing YouTube videos – we were trying to express the main topic of the festival through that specific language, because we saw a link between that phenomenon with the main topic of the festival; huge expectations and big disappointment in Czech society after the transformation from totalitarian regime to capitalism in 1989. Based on this we temporarily renamed the title of the festival to Unboxing democracy.

2020 Never Happened

Concept and design of a Faculty of Architecture yearbook
2021, Brno

While designing a Yearbook we got our hands on an archive of pictures, including many screenshots of Zoom calls, empty studios, etc. In spite of the 2020 pandemic reality, we decided to present a different, dreamy year, full of colorful events and fun experiences. We felt like everybody around us was already so overwhelmed by what was happening that we decided not to include any of the content so typical for that year; lockdowns, zoom calls, keeping safe. We decided to look at the year 2020 at the Faculty of Architecture from a totally utopian point of view and show it as a year that happened in a different universe.
