This project is an award show concept designed to celebrate and elevate Greenlandic artists whose music is used in film. The intention was to create a visual identity that feels both culturally grounded and cinematic. This project positions the award show not just as an event, but as a platform - one that acknowledges the presence of Greenlandic music in film and gives it a clear, confident visual voice.

I designed and built this website for cabinetmaker Laura Bergsøe, a one-person studio creating handcrafted tables. Her previous site followed a generic white layout with rigid, square imagery - an approach that IMHO worked directly against the organic forms and tactile quality of her work. So my idea was to reframe her work through atmosphere and narrative. I inverted the visual language by moving to a black more mysterious palette, using negative space and unconventional shapes to echo the character of the materials. Typography was a critical component. I needed to balance restraint with personality. From the outset, we decided the site had to be built in Squarespace, which imposed clear structural constraints. So I challenged myself to design a site that still felt custom and expressive.

Skin by Coco is a skincare brand, and I assumed the role of designing the logo, developing the brand identity, and crafting the packaging. The primary objective was to encapsulate the brand's essence in a visually appealing manner that would resonate with the intended audience. I adopted a minimalist approach, drawing inspiration from the timeless elegance found in the worlds of perfume and fashion.

Perfectly Deep is a vinyl subscription service dedicated to electronic music. I was tasked with creating graphic artwork for each sub-genre. This approach was designed to help users navigate the website more intuitively. The use of a monotone palette emphasizes the underground nature of the genre, reinforcing the brand’s identity while maintaining a consistent, deep aesthetic that resonates with its audience. That reflects the core of the electronic music scene.
