Visual identity for “Molto Piano”

Posted: 20 Aug 2014 11:21 PM PDT

MCO_JER_2014_POSTER_MARTIN_

Designing for a Jazz festival must be a wonderful experience, you get to work with rythm and musical references. La Mamzelle & Co did a wonderful job at designing a promotional toolkit for the “Jazz en rafale” festival.

The studio, based in Montreal, Quebec, worked in black and white, and found a way to give a jazzy feeling to the whole toolkit. I actually hope they based the festival’s identity on that.
