💥 A few days ago the longlist for this year's #worldillustrationawards was announced and I'm pretty happy that my poster for @saintvassilyfilm was selected in the Advertising category! Some great talent in he 500-long list of artists selected, so it feels amazing to be in such company. Congrats to all of you who also made it! And big thanks to @masha_egv and the @reformationfilms team for the commission in the first place. "Saint Vassily" truly is the gift that keeps on giving!🔥

STIR is a quarterly magazine about democratic ownership, the green transition, and building a different kind of economy. It's published by @stirtoaction , a worker co-operative based in the UK. It's the kind of publication that probably shouldn't exist given its budget, but stubbornly keeps fighting on. #editorialdesign #magazinedesign #typography #stirtoaction #cooperatives #democraticeconomy

STIR Magazine is published via @exacteditions , and I wanted to make the most of their well-thought interface. Each issue is built as a continuous scroll, with articles and sections overflowing into each other, one swipe at a time. #editorialdesign #magazinedesign #typography #stirtoaction #digitalpublishing #uxdesign

I built the new identity around having to do more with much less: when illustration cannot be commissioned for every article, you make typography do the heavy-lifting. Black, white and one accent colour per issue. Four letters, four colours, four issues a year. #editorialdesign #magazinedesign #typography #stirtoaction #typographicdesign #graphicdesign

And speaking of design work, sharing the one I've been doing at STIR magazine, published by @stirtoaction . Last year I was asked to redesign the quarterly magazine as it moved from a 10-year life in print to digital-only. #editorialdesign #magazinedesign #typography #stirtoaction #publicationdesign #digitalmagazine

Too much design work these days, but still chipping away at a project I hope to share properly very soon. For an early peek, link in bio. #afterkormis
