Motion / Type
LiveWIRED: 30
2023
Motion visuals and wordmark for LiveWired, a yearly event organized by Wired Magazine featuring some of the most influential people in tech, business, and entertainment. This year it raised questions about technology’s impact on our past, present, and future. As a result, the visual language designed for the event goes back in time and is inspired from early internet aesthetics, retro tracks, and the demoscene.

Editorial
Desde el estándar
2023
"Desde el Estándar" (From the Standard) is a book that showcases an investigation about the role of digital tools. Designed using online generators and alternative software that is not typically used to design, the project’s value lies in the interplay between possibilities and limitations and in bridging the gap between what is digital and physical. Motion by Olivier Estévez.

Experimental/Print
Open Works
2021
Open Works is an exploration project about standardized aesthetic production methodologies and programmes. It generates visual material with open-source and non-exploitative software, this way questioning the premises under which future designers are trained. Together with Josu Larrea.

Lettering/Print
Thank You
2023
Selfiniciated lettering for a Thank You card.

Object
APIT scarf
2024
Analyse/Process/Interpret/Transform is a scarf designed in collaboration with Noia Magazine for the Input-Output capsule. The scarf explores the process behind the human research method, the way we observe the world and make sense of our surroundings. Photography by Albert Font.
