Leo Burnett “When to take my name off the door”

To celebrate Leo Burnett Worldwide’s 75th anniversary, Lobo has created an animated tribute to Burnett’s speech, which should serve as inspiration for anyone tempted by the siren song of giving less than 100% on every project.

Poly - Web Fonts
Poly  is a medium contrast serif font. Poly  was originally designed for aglutinative languages, (which is why it’s  wide) specifically a South American indigenous language (Wayuunaiki). I paid a lot of attention to the “diacritics zone” to harmonize and unclutter the upper zones of the lowercase letters.

Travel Itineraries
Lichtreise is a visualization of a specific holiday itinerary. What makes this  work special, is how simple non-digital technology has been used to  generate the map: the basis is a long-time exposure picture, which was  lit with a physically moving batter-powered UV-LED light and a battery.  The map itself was lit in a separate step, which all combined resulted  in a beautifully “rendered” infographic.
