FBA. — Ferrand, Bicker e Associados – The Portuguese in the Golf 1507–1650: An Interlinked History
Reflecting on great historical journeys, we envisioned a large-format book designed to be enjoyed slowly, printed on natural rough Arena paper. This format allows for better observation of rare and valuable objects such as manuscripts, engravings, and parchments, as well as large items like maps—icons in the travel universe vs representations of the unknown. The […]
Armée de Verre Bookdesign – Bibliofiel
Belgium’s national poet Mustafa Kör ended his two-year term with the poem ‘Bibliophile’, a love letter to books, reading and libraries. An enormous (three by five!) panel was put up in his own community library in Leuven, showing the poem almost literally emerging from a haze of blurry text, symbolizing how books can help us […]
Idem Design – Sulcus · Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Sulcus evo oil tells a story of deep roots and of a land of caves, stones, and rocks—ancient and rugged, marked by the passage of time and the toil of human hands. The furrows, deep and enduring like those carved by the plow, are reflected in the letters of the name “Sulcus,” which seem to […]

PIKA snc – CALENDARIO interattivo “Mens sana in corpore sano”
The “interactive” calendar Mens sana in corpore sano is a special calendar, almost a game, developed over 9 pages. The idea is to create an annual journey where every Monday the user discovers, thanks to the scratch-off technique, a challenge, that is, a task for their well-being, both for the mind and the body, to […]
Armée de Verre Bookdesign – Fresh chicken (blend)
This packaging project involved creating a paper chicken that could hold a small glass tube of ‘chicken blend,’ a creative spin on a previous design featuring fish and spice blends. The challenge was exciting, and as it turns out—absolutely doable! We thoroughly enjoyed the process, as at Armée de Verre Bookdesign, we love experimenting with […]
