For the People – Live project with Apple that was exhibited at Apple HQ at Hanover Street, London. It aimed to tell the narrative of an unsigned artist. Dan and Out is a disco/funk DJ that puts the audience before himself. Therefore, with the help of musical elements, the audience finally gets the chance to know dan. Vinyl is the core element in Dan and Out’s performance. To highlight this, we created his personalised dubplate. It contains stories of the journey he went on to become a DJ. And being an essential part of his performance, the audience gets a chance to respond to Dan and Out.

For the People | Audience Respond – Just like vinyl has two sides, the project focuses on two main subjects: Dan and Out and the audience. This video focuses on the audience's response to Dan's creative practise.

RIGA – The project aims to rebrand Riga as a cultural destination for young adults. Riga has a stag party city reputation. However, the city has much more to offer, and it hides a lot behind the old facades. The concept is to show the real image of the city, its authenticity and cultural beauty. Thin outline up the front of the logo represents the facades of the city. Although it has charm, some might find it 'ugly.' Thick type underneath represents the rich culture that is hidden under the walls of the city.

Spirit of The O2 – The live project in collaboration with The O2 Arena aimed to create a narrative that brings to life people’s memories of the arena and explore how it contributed to the life of those who use it. People have left many things at The O2. Therefore, the idea is to give the second life to the lost memories of The O2 by creating an online store.

Spirit of The O2 | Online Store – The live project in collaboration with The O2 Arena aimed to create a narrative that brings to life people’s memories of the arena and explore how it contributed to the life of those who use it.
