Found Subjects.
Every project here starts with something that already exists — an album, a painting, a philosopher, an idea — and asks what visual system it actually deserves.
The sources are deliberately unrelated. A 1790 Dutch painting by Johannes van Dregt. Seneca the Younger. A Berlin electronic music night. A two-part campaign about discomfort. What connects them isn't subject matter but method: find the logic inside the material, build a system around it, and hold that system until it either proves itself or breaks.
Sometimes that means Swiss grid and grotesque type. Sometimes it means serif and archive. Sometimes the illustration takes over and the grid has to negotiate. The work doesn't resolve into a single style — that's not the point. The point is that each subject gets a visual language precise enough to be its own.
