IKKARI

“Inspired by the island of Ikaria in the Aegean sea – a certified Blue Zone where one in three people live into their nineties, IKKARI is a modern-day apothecary designed to offer curated, holistic and natural solutions to optimise health and wellbeing through the symbiotic relationship between what you put in and on your body.”

“IKKARI’s fundamental truth brings the idea that true wellness is a result of an interconnected set of conditions that cannot be achieved through any single method, treatment or product. The approach to methodologies, and structure of product ranges is split into three core categories: INNER, OUTER and AURA.”

My involvement in the project was finalising the motion design for IKKARI to use on their website/social media as well as the overall curation of the case study on the Made Thought website.

PLINK!

“Effectively the bath bomb of the beverage world, Plink! is a naturally flavoured effervescent tablet that turns any glass of water into a refreshing drink, using just 1% of the packaging of a normal bottled or canned drink with 98% less carbon impact per serving.”

“From the name to the bold and graphically charged identity–we envisioned an energetic and exciting brand where flavour, fun and authenticity are at the forefront. The name itself is both onomatopoeia and instruction. It's the sound of the product entering the water and starting to work its magic. For us, the energy and emotion that the name Plink! evokes helped to guide the rest of the brand language, including the use of bright colours, exaggerated typography and a very human, authentic way of communicating with the world.”

My involvement in the project was creating the final brand film and various animations for PLINK! and the Made Thought case study.

IKLECTIK

IKLECTIK is a self-funded creative platform founded in 2014 that showcases contemporary art, experimental music and artistic critical practice and approached Pentagram for a re-brand.

I was the lead designer in this project and worked closely with IKLECTIK and Pentagram to create a visual identity which captures their unique experimental work with sound artists. This project involved creating a new logo identity with supporting visuals, based off generative sound textures and a website which functions as an intersection between their online exhibition space called V:SONIK, their on-site live events called ART LAB as well as their unique sound events called IKLECTIKA. This duality is reflected throughout the website design which is still in development and launches in the near future.

SPACE10:
EVERYDAY EXPERIMENTS

Yuri Suzuki and the team were commissioned by SPACE10 to create one of its ‘Everyday Experiments‘—an ongoing series of digital experiments with IKEA which challenge the role of technology in the home.

The first experiment looks at using existing technologies to create invisible partitions in the home. These ‘Sound Bubbles’ use white noise from IOT speakers in a space to create noise cancelling barriers. The second experiment looks at how spatial audio can be used to manipulate the scale of domestic space, using a term called ‘Convulsion Reverb’ - creating different echoes mimicking the change in scale. For both projects, we worked with a 3D Designer to create these visualisations, which I conceptualised and helped manage throughout the project.
