Travelogue by Olga Najdanović

We've just finished working on a travelogue book by Olga Najdanović, Igor's grandmother who turned 90 this week. She documented her travels in a book of short stories we've designed to look like travel suitcases and printed in various vivid colours. Check out the case study.

A witch and a post-apocalyptic man ready for the Halloween party!

After boycotting Halloween for the past few years, at the last moment we decided to attend one of the best parties in Zagreb — the Shock Show Industry Halloween. 

MemoAngel visual identity

Last year we were working on a new startup — a visual identity of MemoAngel, launched this month. MemoAngel is a web service that helps you turn your loss into a legacy. You can collect the best of your memories such as photos, quotes, e-mails and texts in one place and keep the memory alive and share those cherished life stories with your family and friends.

Last Thursday we attended a photo session with the whole team that worked on this impressive project, for the article on Netokracija.

 

We're renovating our studio!

We've started construction works on our new studio — a former garage space next to our house. Many great startups began their legacies in a garage and now it's our turn! Isolation and facade is almost done and brand new windows are on the way. Roofing comes next, then interiors, the car fence and canopy. We're hoping to move in sometime in December, marking the opening with a party :)

M∞M at the 2013/14 Croatian Design Exhibition

A making-of video for 2014 Clox Summertime Collection

Curious to see how this year's CLOX Summertime Collection was made? We made a short making-of video that takes a peek behind the scenes of the factory process and campaign photoshoot. And don't forget to turn up the sound!

New VIDRA Logotype Animation (with sound)

VIDRA is Virovitica-podravina county’s regional development agency. Their young and ambitious team is responsible for EU funding of projects from sectors ranging from entrepreneurship and agriculture to tourism and human resources—and they're very good at it.

We designed their new visual identity around the concept of a flower pot, inside of which their county grows. The logo is a friendly, dynamic and optimistic story of growth and development. The illustration style, color scheme and fonts were brought inline with the visual identity of Virovitica-podravina County, making these two important institutions work together in design as well as in life.

Sound Signatures

Completion of a new visual identity usually involves finishing touches such as finding a good sound signature to accompany the animation of the logotype. 

A sound signature creates an instant audio connection between a brand and the customer (example: Nokia or iPhone sound signatures). We like them to be uniquely composed and recorded specifically for each brand but when the budget doesn't allow for this we have to turn to stock sounds, which can be appropriately adapted.

We love this quote by Amir El Kadi, a sound designer:
"Visual impressions rule our life yet it is sound that gives those pictures a soul."
