There's good design hidden in everyday objects.

And so many of these objects are seeing the last light of day. An old oil can sitting on a dusty shelf, a weathered hardware box, a piece of industrial packaging that most people would overlook.

These artifacts often contain incredible examples of typography, illustration, and visual storytelling. Long before branding became a science, designers were creating work that was bold, functional, and most importantly human.

This project is an exploration of forgotten designs. My goal is to create a personal archive of designs of the past that catch my attention and admiration.

Rather than simply tracing or reproducing what already exists, I rebuild these pieces from the ground up. Every logo, illustration, and typographic detail is carefully redrawn as vector artwork, preserving the character of the original while creating something new in poster form.

In many cases, the most interesting challenge lies in the lettering itself. When an object features a unique typeface, I don’t stop at recreating the letters that appear on the artifact. I research the design, identify its patterns, and try to construct a complete alphabet, extending the original idea beyond its limited application.

The resulting posters are both documentation and interpretation. It’s a way of preserving graphic design history while celebrating the craftsmanship and personality found in everyday objects.
