Originally born and raised on the Caribbean island Curacao, Marc Martha has learned from a young age to utilize what he has and whatever he was able to find. This has been till this day the way that he treats art and clothing. His love for the Caribbean culture and lifestyle are tightly woven into his aesthetics. This approach and the concept behind his collection are especially reflected in the choice of typefaces for the brand identity.

with Bjoern WolfThe Honorarium regulations for architects and engineers (HOAI) serve as a guideline for many architects and clients as to what services are to be expected and remunerated. It is based on a social understanding of what planning and building is. In view of the current challenges, however, the question arises if the instrument of HOAI needs to be rethought and reoriented. The DAZ organised a series of talks, which were accompanied by a brochure with an essay by Christian Holl.

Unpublished Press is a collaborative creative practice that explores topics through research, conversation and publishing. In this publishing house, we do not only act as the designer, we are authors, editors and publishers in one — or in our case two—person(s).
Unpublished Press is challenging traditional forms of publishing by questioning the definition of public in the first place. We want to open up the evolution of contents to the public, give insights into the process information go through and make the process visible. What is usually shared with the public and what remains hidden? In our publishing house, the reader is not only invited to engage with the final product but every stage of the process is accessible to anyone.

HISTORIC PRINTING
Bachelor Project, University of Applied Science Aachen
October 2018 – February 2019
Letterpress printing is probably one of the most important inventions in human history – it has made the dissemination of knowledge possible. However, in view of the current state of technology, letterpress printing no longer seems up to date. Offset and digital printing have replaced the historical book printing process. But is it really no longer relevant today? The project “Modern Ways of Historic Printing” aims to find out if and how designers still work with letterpress technique today and whether a combination with contemporary techniques can produce creative innovations to the design. In order to explore the topic experimentally, a typeface was designed and translated into a modular letter system for letterpress printing, which was used to print a poster installation.

Different windows of the academy are shown in a graphical way and symbolize the openness of the art school and the insights that the visitors can get at the “Open House” event.
Illustrated books in an abstractly shown bookshelf behind these windows visualize the knowledge and the learning that is happening in the academy.
