"100 Stories of Design to Improve Life" / INDEX: Design to Improve Life / 2011

 

 

In this book, INDEX: have collected 100 of the very best examples of Design to Improve Life

from 2005 to 2009 - each standing as indication of how design is neither useless nor pointless.

 

I designed the book from A to Z or actually from 1 to 100. With the use of the INDEX colon

as a building block, I created an illustration of 100 small squares in 100 different shades,

separated in five different colors in reference to the five design categories: Body, Home,

Work, Play and Community.

Book cover design and book interior layout / Creative Circle Award / 2009

 

 

During my internship at Make® I had the opportunity to design the look for the 2009

Creative Circle Award Book. By interpreting the main idea of the Creative Circle's

identity - to unite, hold on to and attract creative efforts - I worked with a 'magnetic'

core of triangular pyramids made out of cardborad

 

The result appeared on the cover of the book and on several spreads inside.

X designs / The Danish School of Media and Journalism / 2009-2011

 

 

The identity of The Danish School of Media and Journalism holds the significant ‘x’ from

the Aller font. This has been basis for my designs that includes invitations, t-shirts, bags

and promotional material.
