Promo for ReSolute’s 18th Year Anniversary party, celebrated in Paris, France.

A defining force in New York’s underground, ReSolute built its reputation through uncompromising curation, unforgettable warehouse nights and marathon sessions that shaped the sound and spirit of an entire community. Few collectives have managed to remain so consistent, independent and influential over nearly two decades – their impact continues to resonate far beyond their hometown.

This promo is designed by Mălin Neamțu and Dreamrec, to emphasize ReSolute’s New York energy for the fans and public in Paris. To do so, the perfect typogarphic combination and layout to shine for this occasion is Segmentor-03 and Volina. This combination sparks raw energy with grace and hi-end glow to underline the event's energy.

A project designed and developed by la-di-da for the Royal Academy of Arts (KABK) in The Hague, in collaboration with KABK workshop instructors, students, alumni and staff.

KABK’s monumental foyer dates back to 1937 when it was an integral part of the modernist building designed by architects J.H. Plantenga, J.W.E Buijs and J.B. Lürsen. For many years, however, the service desk has been cramped into a far corner and the entrance area underused; an echo chamber for footsteps and whispers.

By identifying and activating materials and making skills throughout the KABK, the architectural practice la-di-da has developed an ecologically responsible, yet experimental mode of practice where waste products of the academy’s creative endeavours are gathered and repurposed and new construction techniques tested and shared. Shredded 3D print filament, unused aluminium pipes, Japanese knotweed, and human hair, for example, find new application in compressed biolaminate surfaces, cast lamps, and acoustic textile paneling. KABK workshop instructors, students, staff and alumni with skills in weaving, metalwork, carpentry, and hospitality have formed an ad-hoc collective to facilitate the construction of a vibrant and welcoming space for all.
