Form Farbe Material is Felix Bareis’ diploma project. The visual research experiment was finished in July 2018 at ABK Stuttgart. From Felix Bareis:
The first part is a theoretical reader (40 pages | 11.25×28 cm) dealing with everyday-life-objects as a source of inspiration and finding new ways of creating visual output by categorizing the personal environment.
The second part is a visual archive (452 pages | 22.5×28 cm) containing 3,000 images I did during the last four months showing everyday-life-objects ordered by visual attributes form, color and material. The book can be seen as a daily-life source of inspiration to generate new ways of graphic output by merging different things through classification in categories.
The third part [not shown here] is a screenprinted, black & white poster-series of 14 posters – handpulled [by Felix Bareis (3.1), Daniel Peter, Marcel Häusler, Brando Corradini (3.2), Vrints-Kolsteren, Jan en Randoald, Benoît Bodhuin (3.3), Studio Lindhorst-Emme, Sascia Reibel, Pouya Ahmadi (3.4)].
Supervised by Daniel Martin Feige and Uli Cluss. Also thanks to Patrick Thomas, Gerwin Schmidt, Marcus Wichmann & Hans Georg Posspischil.
The whole project is set in Suisse Int’l Light by Swiss Typefaces and Clarendon Graphic Light by Optimo.
Suisse Int’l is part of the Suisse collection available from Swiss Typefaces.
