Cole Gabriel's Work | ContraWork by Cole GabrielCole Gabriel
Designing unique works for Music, and Tech and Marketing.
A reimagined direction for Gentle Monster built around a new logomark and a full campaign concept for an Atlanta pop-up.
I explored how sharper geometry and sculptural visual cues could merge with the energy of Atlanta. I Pulled from its fashion, nightlife, and mixed-media art culture. To bring the campaign to life, I shot and modeled for the visuals with a team, leaning into bold poses and atmospheric lighting to echo both the brand’s surreal identity and the city’s attitude.
One of my favorite explorations in blending place, branding, and self-directed art direction. Here's a callback to one of my early university projects. They are concept designs for a wakeboarding magazine.
Still love the raw texture, motion, and energy in these spreads.
Wild to see where these early experiments led. Motion exploration inspired by Machine Girl’s MG Ultra, channeling the chaos, speed, and glitch energy their sound lives in. Exploring identity through sound and form.
A series of album covers built for Atlanta DJs and imagined for global techno producers, driven by texture and experimentation.
