How do you define your own style of work?
We playfully define our style as ‘Cool & Communicative,’ meaning designs that are cool and modern while also maintaining clear and meaningful communication.
What inspires you and what principles do you apply to each project?
Our inspiration stems from engaging discussions and the exchange of perspectives with others. We believe in grounding our work in a diversity of opinions, harnessing the potential of teamwork, and exploring new possibilities.
Which project are you most proud of and why?
The graphic design for Pattani Decoded 2024 stands out because it allowed us to delve into our introspective perceptions of unfamiliar aspects within ourselves. The ordinary and mundane, which is often overlooked, served as the starting points for our exploration and discovery in design.
Which part of the process do you enjoy the most during work?
We find the most enjoyment in the presentation stage with clients, where we are able to appreciate the opportunity to showcase our designs and thrive on the insightful critiques and discussions that follow.
If you could invite any ‘creative’ for a coffee, who would it be and why?
Santi Lawrachawee, also known as Professor Tik, who is our mentor. Conversations with him always lead us to encounter new facets of ourselves.
