Led the creative direction for MDRT Day 2018 Hong Kong & Macau across stage visuals, environmental branding and campaign assets, building one cohesive event experience. The campaign contributed to 1,500 tickets sold within one hour.
One of the project's greatest challenges was creating an identity that is instantly recognizable and inspires investor confidence, while balancing a futuristic aesthetic with the sense of reliability intrinsic to the brand's values.
The core concept draws inspiration from the cosmos and the brand's drive to transcend boundaries; no matter the distance, the delivery is guaranteed. We translated this visually through patterns forming paths that lead to a destination, a motif that extends to every corner of the visual language.
I explored a portfolio website for Meriot, a product designer based in the Netherlands who wanted a digital presence that felt more personal, editorial, and design-focused.
The challenge was to avoid the typical portfolio formula and create something that communicates personality within the first few seconds.
The direction
→ Bold editorial typography
→ Strong personal photography
→ Minimal black-and-white foundation
→ Warm orange accent for CTAs
→ Simple, structured navigation
→ Clear positioning as a product designer
→ A portfolio experience that feels like a personal brand
The idea was to make the website feel confident without being complicated.
Rather than leading with a long introduction, the hero immediately communicates who Meriot is, what he does, and where the visitor should go next.
