We are Ducks

PROJECT

Flying Ducks


ROLE

Director

Designer

Animator


When Flying Ducks approached me to create an identity for their studio, I was sure I was interested in developing an experimental typographic piece that would showcase their services while also would tap into the idea of frustration as a positive force of change and productivity.


I was given creative freedom with which I developed a set of style frames (see all 77 below). One of my goals was to include type animated in many different ways and I was happy to incorporate use of several plug-ins to achieve the look.

In the summer of 2022, “We are Ducks” was awarded with a Silver Laus award (the most prestigious design awards in Spain) by ADG FAD in Barcelona and was showcased in the exhibition “Best Design of the Year” at Disseny Hub, Barcelona’s Design Museum. Through the award, the project is now also published in the hardcover “El libro de las criaturas fantásticas”.
