Urbana LND

type design

Urbana Lnd is an experimental font based on the road system of London, which I found to be full of beautiful ornaments, when flying over the city one day. I took a closer look and eventually found all the capital letters, numbers and some punctuation marks. The font won the TDC award for typographic excellence in 2010.

This this monster this things

exhibition invitation

at Typography Summer School

For the exhibition "This this monster this things" over 40 artists were asked to design a body part, which was assigned to them. At the exhibition all the body parts are put together to form a big monster. My proposal for the invitation is a poster, on which all the body parts are listed on a grid in the position where they would be on a body. The back side shows the names of the artists in place of the body parts they designed. In this way the invitation works as a map to the exhibition.

Oh Canada

postcards

Writing postcards is only fun, when you put some effort in. For the ones I sent home from my trip through Quebec I made little collages out of leaflets and other stuff I found on the way.

Abbey is an old caravan transformed into a mobile gallery. It started its business in 2007 and has since then hosted 4 exhibition series in Graz. Every week it changed its position within the city and a new artist has the possibility to display his or her work.

in cooperation with Arian Andiel, Konrad Zirm, Katharina Kolar and Barbara Rettensteiner.

calendar

For my diploma project I made a calendar that focuses on the rhythmical character of time. There is a booklet for each month that can be folded out to a poster, showing photos of 3 locations in Vienna, taken from different spots and at different times of the day. The pictures themselves only seem to be snap-shots at first sight, in fact they are multiple shots, taken within a certain period of time, put together. The existence of a point in time is denied.
