Agency Self Promo - AdGlobal Cafe Wall Painting

All we wanted to make our office café a new look. The Proactive project called ""The Great Wall of Communication "" I started with illustrations on paper... soon sketch it on the wall and the entire team (creative, accounts, marketing, hr,) gets involved to try their hand to color and add life to the characters. It was a fun project and soon after finishing, the wall became a new selfie-zone. https://www.behance.net/gallery/12129527/Agency-Self-Promo-AdGlobal-Cafe-Wall-Painting

  • Research Interest
  • Illustrations, Design, Regional Typography, and Experimenting
  • My research interests focus on illustration, regional typography, and experimental design practices. I am particularly interested in exploring how illustration can serve as a powerful medium for cultural storytelling and visual expression. My work examines the role of regional typography in preserving linguistic identity and enhancing cultural representation within contemporary design contexts. Through experimentation with form, material, and technology, I aim to investigate new ways of communicating meaning, bridging tradition with innovation in visual design.
