Most security brands look the same, with overused tech icons that symbolize “protection.”
With Authox, I wanted something more intentional.
The challenge was to design an icon system that feels structured, precise, and intelligent without relying on clichés. Instead of drawing literal symbols, we built a dotted grid language. Each icon grows from a controlled matrix, forming clear shapes through alignment and repetition.
The result came exactly as I had envisioned: an iconography system that resembles infrastructure.
Thanks, Ciro!

"Iconography that resembles infrastructure" is such a precise and elegant design brief — and the dot-matrix icon execution delivers exactly that. It communicates security through structure and precision, not through padlocks and shields. That's the kind of intentional design thinking that separates good brand work from great.
This is such a generous read, thank you. We felt that if reliability is infrastructure, the iconography should behave like it too. I’m happy it resonated.
This is Insane

DUALLY YOURS - ZINE
This project is about the tug-of-war between seeing things clearly and finding beauty in the blur. It began as a study of my own spectacles for a typography class at Elisava, led by Mark Bohle.
The zine looks at two different ways of moving through the world. My right eye represents the person I feel I should be—the one who follows the rules, sticks to a routine, and stays organized. It loves clean lines, precise writing, and everything being in its right place.
My left eye is different. It mirrors my lazy eye condition, where things naturally "drift." Instead of trying to fix the blur, this perspective finds something special in it. It finds beauty in the unexpected—like the way sunlight looks through a broken window or how a simple smudge on a lens can change the way a story feels.
Nice and creative idea with excellent execution.
