Francesco Fallisi Calendar Graphic Monday, 10 August 2026

Fck 2020

Fck 2020 is a table calendar for the year 2021. The calendar is produced as a leporello, a long sheet folded into twelve panels. It can be kept flat and browsed like a book, or placed on a desk in the shape of a circle or other forms. Each month carries a short wish for the new year, told through polychrome modernist graphics and minimal illustrations. The intent is to turn the page on a difficult year with humour and imagination. Printing is digital on 240 gram white paper. The folded size is 169 by 240 millimetres.

Primary Residence Type Design

Primary Residence

Primary Residence is a typeface design that turns minimal architectural forms into letters and numbers, using the three primary colors red, blue and yellow. Each character shows a small part of a building, without a clear entry or exit. Stairs, windows and geometric shapes refer to the Bauhaus movement and to minimalist architecture. The design was also informed by stairs and windows observed in different parts of the world. The sketches were made on paper, based on photographs of real buildings. The aim is to blend the form and the identity of the structure.

Keitaro Sugihara Pop Up Picture Book Graphic Saturday, 8 August 2026

Who's That Eating

This interactive pop-up book follows seven animals enjoying their favorite snacks, each with a 3D pop up fold showcasing their distinct eating style. Each pop up was designed with a single page cut out, and a second backing page revealing the inside of each mouth and adding structural integrity. This simple design, combined with paper collage illustrations, brings life to each animal. The text includes eating sounds via Japanese onomatopoeia, encouraging the reader to open and close the pages as the animals munch away.

Muse Conceptual Exhibtion

Michelle Poon Conceptual Exhibtion Graphic Friday, 7 August 2026

Muse

Muse is an experimental design project studying the musical perception of the human through three installation experiences which provide different ways to experience music. The first is purely sensational using thermo-active material, and the second display the decoded perception of musical spatiality. The last is a translation between music notation and visual forms. People are encouraged to interact with the installations and explore the music visually with their own perception. The main message is that designers should be aware of how perception affects them in practice.

Designers Brasileiros

The brand of the website Designers Brasileiros consists of a panel in the shape of the letter D composed by geometric pieces that fit together and represent the design specialties. These pieces are shapes extracted from the Brazilian flag and also form the letter B and a toucan. The toucan was defined by the fact that it is one of the largest seed dispersers of Brazilian fauna and one of those responsible for the formation of tropical forests. Thus, for the brand, the dispersion of seeds by the toucan conceptually symbolizes the dissemination of knowledge that is the purpose of the website.

Flexo InForm Assembly Pavilion

Mauro Chiarella and Veizaga-Gronda team Assembly Pavilion Generative Wednesday, 5 August 2026

Flexo InForm

Flexo InForm is an assembly pavilion derived from an innovative design processes oriented to geometric-material performance. The process developed begins with the parametric discretization of a complex geometry inspired by the weaving of natural fibers typical of the Argentine Littoral region. Simulation algorithms use active bending behavior as a design tool applied to structures that base their geometry on the elastic deformation of laminar elements. The result is a low-cost mono-material pavilion, self-supporting, adaptable to any terrain topography, low weight and fast assembly.
