Spring in Athens.
We were commissioned by the free press “LiFO” to illustrate this week’s cover story.
The concept was inspired by the award winning campaign we have recently designed for the Athens State Orchestra.

We were commissioned by MEGARON – the Athens Concert Hall to brand and do the fitting of their new store located in its foyer. The initial of the words Music and Megaron becomes the name of the store and is accompanied by all words that start with M.
Magic, Modern, Mania, Melody and More at “The M Shop”.

More The M Shop: Identity

For the seventy year anniversary of “Icarus” press we created – along with Vivian Efthimiopoulou – a commemorative identity that will be used during the course of 2013 in all communications. In all languages, intonation and punctuation define pauses and breaths setting the time that elapses between thoughts and meanings.

A tilde, a single quote mark and a dot. Intonation and punctuation form the number 70 which marks the years that have past and the years to come.
