Komplexival
Poster and communication design for an indie, non-profit music festival
About the Project
I've been involved with Komplexival festival for 2 years, taking on design and cooking responsibilities for this small, intimate music festival.
Based on the 2022 theme "contact", I chose a key visual from my existing illustrations and built the visual identity from there.
The festival's spirit is very DIY (during the day) and the atmosphere is dominated by colorful lights (during the nighttime music acts). I chose the indie font Anthony by Sun Young Oh to encapsulate Komplexival's DIY character. I paired it with the rounded display font Allan by Anton Koovit, which worked surprisingly well for two very different, very expressive styles.
The dark theme with neon colors is a good match for the funky, loud, indie, experimental line-up of music acts.
