Marco Cantù book covers

# book design

For Marco Cantù’s ‘Delphi 2007 Handbook’ book cover I duplicated the birds using the Fibonacci sequence.

Nothing represents relation between nature, computer science and mathematics better than the Fibonacci sequence.

Delphi in 2009 adds Unicode features so birds becomes Y and some similar glyphs.

In Delphi 2010 the new great feature is gestures so birds becomes gesture signs. ✎ 2007-2015

Molto FM identity

# corporate identity

Molto FM was a project of online radio of Molto Recordings.

My concept for the logo is to reinterpret the symbol of volume, designing it using typographic symbols. The red part of the logo is composed of symbols found in all fonts. Circles are represented by the “bullet” symbol (shift+.) and the bar is made by the symbol, “bar” (shift+/).

The revolutionary idea is that the logo can be realized with any font and no pictures are necessary, so changing the way it looks while the structure remains the same. ✎ 2002
