DESCRIPTION
Everything that can happen in a year — my own moodboard collection of one year living and working in the design field at Studio Knox in Stockholm and Studio Besau-Marguerre in Hamburg.TRANSCRIPT
.
Everything that can happen in a year.
First, I worked five months as an intern for Studio Knox in Stockholm.Studio Knox is a young, highly ambitious graphic design studio. It was founded by Chris Knox, a british designer from Scotland.
The studio’s main philosophy is that good graphic design should be user-centric and that the audience is placed at the core of all design solutions.
.Later that year, Studio Besau Marguerre invited me to join them for six
months. The experimental workflow with materials, colors, concepts and products are the speciality of Eva Marguerre and Marcel Besau.
The studio’s main goal is to circle around, product design, interior design, architecture, trend development, sustainable design and graphic design.
Today, almost one year later my ambition has not changed. Design thinking keeps me inspired and motivated every day in creating meaningful and
sincere design to people. I am happy that this year happend.
Thank you,

STUDIO
STUdio KnoX
Studio Knox is a young, highly ambitious
graphic design studio. it was founded by
Chris Knox, a british designer from Scotland.
The studio's main philosophy is that good
graphic design should be user-centric and
that the audience is placed at the core of
all design results and solutions.
Fundamentally it also works on the belief
that innovative and sustainable design is
created from the combination of both traditional
and future reference points. This means that a
conscious decision has been made
to reject current stylistic trends in favour of
proven graphical approaches.
deSiGner
Chris Knox MFa is a British graphic designer
who was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1981.
He has extensive professional experience
within graphic design, providing skills which are
applied to all the studio's projects. This great
experience is also complemented by detailed
knowledge gained in his educational back-
ground in the same design field.

HELLO
GladH&co
Gladh&Co is an multidisciplinary event
agency operating in Stockholm, Sweden.
The company was founded by anna Gladh
in 2006. The concept and goal of Gladh&Co
is to be a smart platform for the creation of
exclusive events in a very professional way.
THe worK
We were asked to design a new graphic identity
and a set of communication tools for
Gladh&Co. The style of the identity should be
simpler, cleaner and than the existing identity.
Gladh&Co's aim is to appear »professional« and
»exclusive« to their clients.
it may appear »retro« but not »bling bling«.
The logotype/identity needs to be applied to
primarily to communication tools like the web-
site, business cards, and ipad/mac presenta-
tion – but should also take into account how
it might be applied to letterhead, a signboard,
stickers and envelopes.

CiTiES is a foundation based in amsterdam.
Their mission is to develop a platform to bring
urban issues back to citizens'. CiTiES has been
working on many national and international
urban analyses and development projects.
THe worK
WeOwnTheCity was a collaboration work
between the aRCaM team, CiTiES, an
urban research collective and Studio Knox.
The output was an exhibition at amsterdam
architecture Centre in autumn 2012.
We were asked to give the exhibition a graphic
identity. More than that we had to plan and
build the whole exhibition with a small budget.
The structure of the the exhibition is based
around a series of steel frames over which
bright yellow fabrics netting has been stret-
ched. These bright, semi-transparent walls
helped divide the space and encourage
visitors to move through the exhibition.
The exhibition is also scheduled to go to
Brussels, Marseille and Hong Kong.

STUDIO
STUdio BeSaU marGUerre
Material experiments, innovative color schemes
and creative staging: the collaboration work of
Eva Marguerre and Marcel Besau is fascina-
ting. it's no wonder that the product designers
established their own studio in may 2011 and
benefi t from their combined resources.
The two designers' diversifi ed styles and wor-
king methods incessantly give rise to innovative
concepts and eye-catching implementations
ranging from visual communication over pro-
duct design to interior design.
Everything's coming from one source.
deSiGnerS
Eva Marguerre loves working with paper, rib-
bons, wooden materials, smooth surfaces and
colors. at fi rst, it is the detail catching her eyes:
sensually grasping the objects, refi ning and
transforming them into something excellent.
This is what makes her work for magazines and
also her stool series »nido« so distinctive.
Marcel Besau combines digital with analog
technology: the mixture of human thought
processes, classic crafts and precision machine
work is his focal point. For him the essence of
his work with generative computer programs
lies especially in the variety of inputs and occa-
sionally in the ensuing unprecedented results.

Looking from a distance, the glaring »nido« Stools seem to
be fragile, anyhow, while sitting on them, they turn out to be
very robust. Form and function ot the stools are interwoven
so successfully, owing to their light construction of fi breglass.

TenSnaKe
Marco niemerski, known professionally as
Tensnake, is a German DJ and music producer
from Hamburg. He is best known for his 2010
track »Coma Cat«, which appeared on at least
15 compilations that year.
THe worK
We made a redesign of the existing logotype
and created a new layout for the website. after
this we had the pleasure to shape tshirt motives
and to develop a vinyl cover for the new album.
For the upcoming album-release-party in de-
cemeber 2012, we created a fl yer based on the
new logotype and the new color world.
Tensnake started as a digital project. But during
the process the project became more like an
analog work. The paper logotype is cut in lay-
ers. Every layer has its own color surface. The
paper surface is painted with color sprays.
We spent days over days trying to get the right
shape, proportions and color concepts. in the
end, it is a joyful, haptic and colorful solution
made out of colored paper.
