Sleek and angular retail wayfinding for the Highpoint Shopping Centre in Melbourne, Australia by Diadem. The use of a trapezoid face to the signs is carried throughout the system in all of the freestanding signage and along with the strict color palette creates a modern fresh look for the space. In addition, the exposed concrete footer that is worked into the design of the signs is an excellent detail, and an excellent way to use a structural requirement to your advantage instead of hiding it.

A great inspiring artist for all Signage and Environmental Graphic Designers.

Bright and festive environmental graphics for the Masticar Festival in Buenos Aires—“the most important gastronomic festival of Argentina”. These graphics use hand-lettered type, custom illustrations, and a vibrant color scheme for a look that is both unique and full of life. Its commitment to raw forms and a repetitive poster wallpapering is reminiscent of street event posters and painted window promotions and give the event a bold feeling of excitement.
