Branding




Books, brand identities and presentations for architects, structures, projects and people connected to creation, art and culture, but also to scuba diving, the ocean and drums — my other passions — that’s what Dawa creates.
   Dawa’s not a studio; Dawa’s me, Christophe Lorvo, a Creative and Art Director, originaly educated in Applied Art and Art History in France. With battle scars to show from working three decades as Graphic Designer, Art Director, Copywriter and Creative Director in some of the most competitive environments. On agency and client side. In Europe and Asia-Pacific.
   You wouldn’t bet on my Frenchness when looking at what’s in my plate — I am a cheese and wine free specimen. But my accent gives me away. 
    This website presents a selection of work that reflects my taste for beautiful books and thoughtful layouts, for (im)pertinent ideas that challenge conventions while retaining a strong attachment to certain graphic traditions. It also highlights my approach to structuring content and developing brand narratives.

07 — ARTISAN PARK
Leaflet

Industry:
Property Developer
Forget about the typical panel roll folds and accordion folds: with a custom folding solution, the leaflet created for Artisan Park reinvents the leaflet experience. It is a large 240mm x 320mm piece that reveals the neighbourhood’s story in layers. There are four versions, smooth or rough, printed on the thickest versions of Arjowiggins’s Curious paper.
   This bespoke folding solution adds a pleasing and captivating sound layer to the brand experience, something that evokes the sounds in an artisan's workshop.
