The visual identity for Ama, a hidden Japanese cocktail and raw bar in Vancouver, balances a retro-futuristic aesthetic with deep oceanic inspirations.

Designed by Glasfurd & Walker, the branding centers around a fluid, custom wordmark inspired by the flowing movements of Japanese “sea women“ (pearl divers). To contrast with this expressive logo, the studio utilized an old version of Ranua by Muhittin Güneş as the supporting typeface.

Amsterdam-based agency ON A DAILY BASIS developed the visual identity for De Hallen, a cultural landmark and former tram depot.

From film and food to design and craft – this is the place where creative makers, local entrepreneurs and cultural initiatives come together.

The system is built around the concept of “connection,” inspired by the unique symbols and colors of Amsterdam’s tram network. This modular language uses three geometric forms – a square, an arch, and a triangle – derived directly from the venue’s architecture to represent the diverse initiatives and communities that gather within the space.

The identity is set in Bugrino by Muhittin Güneş, with support from Overused Grotesk by RandomMaerks. Graphic design by Sjondebaron, Keren Avrich, Kirsten Bolwerk, and Maikel Timothy Botterman at ON A DAILY BASIS (ODB). The website was realized by Boring.

Identity and posters designed for the Mahnmal Keupstraße, an anti-racist learning and memorial site in Cologne, Germany.

In Cologne, there is a fight for a memorial. It’s intended to commemorate the two right-wing terrorist bombings by the National Socialist Underground (NSU) – one in 2001 in Probsteigasse and another in 2004 in Keupstraße. In 2016, artist Ulf Aminde's proposal for a memorial was selected. However, it has not been realized to this day. The affected individuals, the artist, and initiatives have been fighting for the learning and memorial site at Keupstraße for more than eight years.

Over the past one and a half years, Marie Teigler, Lena Würsching, and Volker Buchwald – members of the Studiengruppe Informationsdesign at Burg Giebichenstein Kunsthochschule Halle – developed a visual language for the memorial site and the website. This was done in collaboration with Ulf Aminde and in exchange with the initiative Herkesin Meydani – Platz für Alle,

On Sunday, June 9, 2024, marking the 20th anniversary of the attack in Keupstraße, the designers presented their work as part of the commemorative festival Birlikte, alongside Aminde (project management and conception) and headtrip immersive media GmbH (mobile UX design and augmented reality) on Keupstraße. The poem is by Aminde, the translation by Engincan Kumlalı.
