GOLDEN SIGN

For the debut album „Golden Sign“ by Berlin-based artist Meravi, I created a visual identity that reflects her dreamy, horn-centered indie pop. The concept merges the music’s magical and experimental tone with subtle nods to the element gold— integrating its atomic details and scientific references throughout.

SCOPE

Art direction, cover artwork album + singles, vinyl packaging, photography

CONCEPTS

Day-dreamy, magical, velvet, experimental

Single Covers

For the singles, we used specially-shot photos of the artist combined with a carefully selected colour palette and typography. Without revealing the artist’s face, each cover captures the essence of its respective song, contributing to a larger visual narrative throughout the campaign that sparks curiosity and invites deeper attention. The chemical numbers and subtle outline illustrations of various parts of the instrument serve as understated clues, hinting at what will be revealed on the album cover.

Album Cover + Vinyl Sleeve

The album cover reveals Meravi’s face alongside an abstract representation of the horn, capturing the profound connection between the artist and her instrument. The finishing touch is the artist’s hand signature in gold leaf, featured on a limited edition of the vinyl sleeve.

Social Media Competition

Each single cover features cleverly integrated chemical clues—such as the melting point, the boiling point, or the atomic number of Gold—offering a playful promotional twist. A competition invited fans to decode the visuals, transforming the release into an interactive experience.

PRODUCTS

Synthesizer V Studio, Synthesizer V Studio Pro 2, Vocoflex

In this ongoing collaboration, I have been responsible for designing each new product brochure as it launches. This includes individual trifold brochures for their core products— Vocoflex, Synthesizer V Studio, and Synthesizer V Studio Pro2—as well as a comprehensive, updated global brochure.

Each piece is designed to fit within a cohesive visual system that grows with the brand. By establishing a flexible yet disciplined framework for layout, typography, and information hierarchy, each new brochure enters the suite as a fresh chapter that feels inherently part of the same story, while respecting its product’s visual identity.

// THANKSGIVING //

At NI the Thanksgiving campaign is one of the most important campaigns of the year – with big discounts on all of their products.

As the responsible designer for seasonal campaigns I helped to develop a new creative concept with more abstract and contemporary designs, creating a fresher look and feel, higher functionality and easy adaption of the different campaign assets. All campaigns included the design of the key visuals and all marketing assets such as newsletters, online banners, social media formats, website images and press kit.

// NKS CAMPAIGNS //

NKS (Native Kontrol Standard) is a format created by NI that allows to bring software instruments, effects, loops and samples into one intuitive workflow – creating seamless integration between NI and other leading developers.

Over the years NKS became an industry standard and NI regularly teamed up with software developers to push their NKS-ready products. Since the beginning the challenge of the NKS campaigns was to find a creative concept that respects the style guides of both, NI and the corresponding partner company. The individual campaigns included the design of the key visual and all marketing assets such as landing pages, newsletters, online banners, social media formats and press kits.

// NATIVE INSTRUMENTS BEATFIGHTER TOUR //

The Native Instruments Beatfighter Tour was a live roadshow in late 2013 that brought cutting-edge hardware and software integration directly to audiences in Japan.

Featuring artists like DJ Shiftee and Jeremy Ellis, the tour showcased the creative potential of Native Instruments gear, particularly the Maschine production system through dynamic live performances across techno, dubstep, and breakbeat genres.

I was responsible for the full campaign, designing all assets from concept to delivery. This included the event logo and key visual, as well as online (newsletter, landing page, social media) and print (poster, merchandise) materials.
