Affärsliv24

Visual identity

In the autumn of 2015 Västerbottens-Kuriren launched their business news website Affärsliv24. I was asked to develop a logo, guidelines for typography, color schemes, icons and layout. The goal was to find a visual expression halfway between a modern, digital realtime news site, and a traditional news journalism publication, for a balance between contemporary digital culture and the journalistic credibility that is associated with the printed news publication.

The choice of font fell on Akkurat in the weights Bold and Regular, a modern sans-serif designed by Laurenz Brunner, combined with a color system of four reds (and four additional grays for external content), which allows structuring of information hierarchically while representing a reference light to the red (pink) paper many business publications are printed on.

Book binding - handbound journal

Handbound journals

A book is, despite all the digital innovations, unmatched when it comes to accessibility and simplicity. In addition, it lacks batteries.

Blind embossed business card

Embossed business cards

If you come across a rare piece of dyed raw black cardboard, it’s difficult to resist the impulse to emboss it. So I turned it into business cards.

Buttons in different designs

What does a button look like?

What does a button look like, what happens when I press it, and how flat can it become before I stop perceiving it as a button?
