SAISON MOBILE

Saison Mobile is a visual identity project designed for Théâtre Le Grand T in Nantes, created for its traveling program. The main objective was to develop an identity capable of expressing movement, mobility, and nocturnal temporality, while maintaining strong visual consistency across different locations.

The project began with the design of a poster, conceived as the foundation of the entire visual system. The concept revolved around movement, interpreted through the light of car headlights at night. This visual direction evokes motion, urban journeys, anticipation, and the sensory experience of live performance. Light trails become a graphic language, suggesting flow, speed, and direction.

From this initial poster, I developed a global visual identity applied across multiple media to ensure consistency across all touchpoints. The system was adapted to Instagram posts, banners, business cards, and merchandising (tote bags, t-shirts, stickers), as well as functional items such as envelopes and tickets, inspired by cinema ticket formats.

This project explores how a visual identity can adapt to various formats while remaining clear and recognizable. The goal was to create a cohesive, immersive, and instantly identifiable graphic experience supporting the theater’s cultural programming.

EUROPEAN NIGHT OF MUSEUMS

European Night of Museums is a visual identity project created for the 2024 edition of the event, as part of a school project at EDNA. The objective was to design an identity capable of promoting a national cultural event while appealing to a broad audience and highlighting the unique experience of visiting museums at night.

The project began with in-depth research into cultural events, museums, and their communication strategies. This analysis highlighted key challenges related to accessibility, cultural mediation, and the attractiveness of a free, one-night event. Based on this research, two conceptual directions were developed, exploring different ways of representing the relationship between the public and the museum.

The selected concept was then developed into a coherent and flexible visual system. Designed to adapt to multiple formats, it ensures strong visual consistency across both urban and digital environments. The goal was to create an identity capable of existing in public space as well as in promotional and animated formats.

The identity was applied to various media, including posters, merchandising, and motion design. These applications explore different moments of communication—before and during the event—while reinforcing visibility. The project offers a contemporary and dynamic vision aimed at sparking curiosity and encouraging public engagement.

SUGAR RUSH

This project was created as part of the 2025 Chaumont Design Biennale competition. The objective was to visually interpret a musical piece by designing a graphic object capable of translating its sound, rhythm, and atmosphere into a coherent visual proposal.

We chose the track Kasmoe by Kmoe for its richness and diversity of sound elements, as well as its connection to hyperpop. With its experimental and digital aesthetic, this genre—born from internet culture—became the foundation of our visual exploration.

To convey the energy and intensity of the music, we designed a triptych of posters. Each poster represents a different phase of the track: a rhythmic introduction, a softer transition with piano and strings, and a powerful drop marked by intensified sound effects.

The visuals draw from hyperpop aesthetics—saturated colors, digital textures, and instability. Typography plays a key role, using pixelated and electronic styles to prioritize sensation over explicit narration.

Blurred analog photographs were used to evoke movement, dance, and speed. These images were recolored and combined with textured gradients based on complementary colors, creating immersive compositions. The result is a dynamic visual experience translating the sensory nature of the music.

PETITES ÉTOILES

This project explores inclusive writing and the role of design in representing gender identities. It combines research, critical thinking, and design development to create an engaged and coherent graphic response.

The project questions the supposed neutrality of the masculine form in French and its impact on representation. Through historical, linguistic, and social research, it highlights how language contributes to invisibilizing certain identities.

The outcome is an inclusive illustrated book for children, designed to introduce professions through non-stereotypical representations. Characters are depicted with stars instead of faces to avoid assigning gender or identity, allowing each child to project themselves freely.

Bright colors and contrasting palettes create an engaging visual universe, while inclusive language is used naturally to normalize it through exposure. A custom typeface was also designed to reinforce the project’s identity.

The project functions as both a pedagogical and visual tool, using design to promote inclusivity in an accessible and non-prescriptive way.

NOZAY OMNISPORTS

This project focused on redesigning the visual identity of Nozay Omnisports, a multi-sport association.

The goal was to create a cohesive and unifying identity representing all disciplines while improving clarity and recognition.

A modular system of geometric shapes was developed to express movement and flexibility. These shapes combine to form dynamic figures, creating both a main logo and variations for each sport.

The identity was deployed across print and digital media, ensuring consistency across all communication platforms.

This project involved the design of an editorial type specimen showcasing a typeface created by a woman or non-binary designer.

The goal was to highlight often overlooked typographic work while exploring its context, history, and usage. Research was conducted to understand the designer’s approach and the formal characteristics of the typeface.

The layout was designed as both a reading and display system, balancing information and visual demonstration. The project also included technical work on print imposition in InDesign.

APALA : PLANETARY BOUNDARIES

This project translates the concept of planetary boundaries into a motion design piece, as part of a fictional collaboration with the organization Apala.

Based on scientific research, the project explores how to communicate complex ecological concepts through accessible visuals. A graphic system based on thresholds and imbalance was developed to represent environmental limits.

The motion design acts as a pedagogical tool, guiding viewers through the concept with clear and engaging visuals. Supporting materials (print and social media) extend the communication.
