Identity and website design of Trial and Error, a DIY music conference in Hannover, Germany:
We’re a DIY music conference that brings together creatives of all genres and welcomes participants of all experience levels since 2018. The event promotes creative exchange, experimentation, and the sharing of technology and knowledge with a strong focus on subculture and not on commercial viability. We are guided by the DIY spirit of the early punk scene, in which the joy of doing things yourself is paramount, failure is recognized as part of the process, and solidarity rather than competition is the order of the day.
The design by Bareis + Nicolaus uses Right Grotesk by Alex Slobzheninov, available via Pangram Pangram.
