Death of Classical
Branding / Collateral Design
2020
Visual identity re-design for the non-profit organization — Death of Classical — a producer and presenter of classical music and opera, committed to bringing new life to the performing arts by creating unique and unexpected concert experiences, reaching new and broader audiences, and giving a voice to underrepresented composers and performers.
Playing with musical notations and paradoxical idea — "the death of classical music." the branding roots deeply in gravestone and obituaries' visual languages.
This project completely designed with the typefaces: Sneaky Times (designed by Collletttivo), Restora (by Nasir Udin), and AUTHENTIC Sans (by Christina Janus and Desmond Wong).

Taking cues from the graphic system of MTA and the visual language of newspapers, the event identity is characterized by typographical chromostereopsis. The voice of the font faces helped create light and warm visuals throughout the experience.
