Beiersdorf needed an entertaining TV spot to kick off Germany’s first shampoo with activated charcoal as a cleansing agent, formulated for real men. This commercial was shot and aired in Europe. It is also the first time for Beiersdorf to hire a challenger agency, to produce and shoot a TV commercial out of their country.

Bon Chef

Recently we’ve been working on a logo for an Indonesian restaurant chain. Bon Chef is a family restaurant, where people come to enjoy home-style food in a cozy atmosphere. To convey that feeling, we decided to go with a heart-warming hand lettered logo.

After ruining a stack of paper, I jumped into illustrator and placed those bezier points in the right spots.

Below are the initial logo sketches I made in search of the right treatment.

WIP Big Podcast Radio – concept app design

Here are some work in progress shots of an app I’m making for Vasily Strelnikov – the father of Russian podcasting. Knowing his obsession with an old-school radio, I was aiming for a very vintage, yet warm and comforting look.

From Russia with love

A tiny illustration I made over a lazy Saturday afternoon, probably slightly missing that chilly Russian winter, especially after spending a whole year here, in Singapore. Can you imagine if Merlion was standing in the middle of Red Square? Easy. This art print was inspired by the work of Aaron Draplin.

“Making It” documentary

I’ve been waiting for almost 2 years to see this movie. The release date is finally here and it’s 17 February. Mark your calendars. “Making It” is a Documentary about the daily struggles of making a living, staying creative, and making it all up as we go along. In one word, the stuff they don’t teach at school.

Clara Clayton Canyon

The second print from the series goes to the iconic DeLorean and BTTF3. Still experimenting with this style, but already liking the results I can get simply by adding a little bit of rough texture to the silky smooth vector.
