Custom hand drawn illustrations for DJ, Music Producer Dunkelbunt for ‘The Vienna Tapes’ audio cassette limited edition release December 2019. As Dunkelbunt says,  ‘the Vienna Tapes, draws substantially from the pool of  international and globally active musicians in Vienna’ – The inspiration for the design was drawn as a map, referring to the cities where the artists & musicians who are part of ‘the Vienna Tapes’  originally come from – en route to Vienna.

Umgebungspläne für U-Bahn

Client: Wiener Linien
Project Supervision: Veronika Egger,  is-design GmbH

‘You are here’ surrounding area map re-design and info-graphics for each of  the 98 Ubahn-Metro stations in Vienna, including extended line of the U1 Metro (U1-Verlängerung) and other key intersections/locations. The implementaion of the map has been gradual since 2014. This colossal- project was successfully completed in 2017.

The Wiener Linien projects in particular were designed aiming for minimal cognitive load for the users- in this case the commuters. (The time taken for the commuter to orient himself using the map as soon as he/she alights from the U-bahn.)

Each of the map in the Umgebungsplan project was unique, be it a part of Donauinsel or the heart of Innere Stadt or Schönbrunn. While the core graphic language was maintained,  a unique component would need to be designed and considered with every new map –  such as a transparent bridge like in Hütteldorf, or detailing of the Karlsplatz or the Praterstern junction or when the underground metro line goes over ground etc. All the stations were visited, researched, processed and designed from the POV of the the commuters – does it lead or distract them from the goal?

Hietzinger Festwochen 2018

I was approached to completely revamp the Hietzinger Festwochen Brochure design such that it appeal to all demographic, the young and the old in Hietzing – the 13th municipal district in Vienna. The prevous brochure design that the HFW had, was very traditional and we wanted to break that thought. After a lot of discussions, we decided to sketch little elements that would have a fresh outlook on not just the design but also reflect on the mood of the festival.

The final print output was quite appreciated and I was asked to design for the next year as well.
