This Beautiful Mess – The Soft Powers
Art direction, design
Collaboration with Bas Van Nienes
“Times are hard and truth is nowhere — so we chose beauty and spirit over stances and words.”
For The Soft Powers, the artwork had to feel lived-in rather than explained. Historic drawings were embedded in newly designed letterforms, forming an image shaped by opposing movements — upward and downward, light and dark, surface and depth.
Not a statement, but a presence — with room to let the music speak.
