Η ΟΠΤΙΚΗ ΤΑΥΤΟΤΗΤΑ ΤΟΥ ΦΕΣΤΙΒΑΛ ΑΘΗΝΩΝ ΕΠΙΔΑΥΡΟΥ 2026 ΑΠΟ ΤΟΥΣ POLKADOT DESIGN
Η οπτική ταυτότητα του Φεστιβάλ είναι μια πρόσκληση που καλεί τον θεατή να επιλέξει για το πως θα σταθεί απέναντι στην τέχνη. Θα τον τοποθετήσει ως έναν παρατηρητή ή θα του επιτρέψει να συμμετέχει στην ουσία του έργου;
Στο βίντεο που ακολουθεί, αποτυπώνεται η διαδικασία: χειρωνακτική, σωματική, σχεδόν τελετουργική.
Εκεί όπου η χειρονομία μετατρέπεται από ίχνος σε οπτική γλώσσα, περιμένοντας από το κοινό να δώσει το τελικό νόημα.

THE VISUAL IDENTITY OF THE ATHENS EPIDAURUS FESTIVAL 2026 BY POLKADOT DESIGN
The Festival’s visual identity is an invitation for the viewer to choose how they will stand towards art. Will it position them as an observer, or will it allow them to participate in the work’s very essence?
The following video captures the process: manual, physical, almost ritualistic. It is where gesture is transformed from a trace into a visual language, waiting for the audience to define its final meaning.

The book’s diagrams are more than visuals;
they are optical proofs that transform data into arguments. By choosing what to highlight, each chart builds a case based on precision rather than rhetoric.

The cover references the early digital era, when data appeared as green light on black screens—not as nostalgia, but as a reminder that before interpretation, there is always the raw flicker of data.

Printed with fluorescent ink, light becomes both a literal and conceptual tool: diagrams illuminate information, reveal relationships, and bring forward what often remains unseen.

This approach avoids emotional rhetoric, relying instead on research and evidence, encouraging a clear reading of facts before interpretation.

Crispy Pils is a carefully crafted Bohemian-style pilsner, defined by balance, precision, and a clean, refreshing character. Floral notes, classic bitterness, and a delicate finish reflect traditional methods and patience-driven brewing, resulting in a lager that is subtle yet deeply satisfying. 

Our design is driven by typography, drawing inspiration from classic Bohemian and Central European beer lettering. Bold headlines, structured hierarchies, and decorative details take center stage, creating a strong visual rhythm without unnecessary embellishment. The result is a design that feels timeless yet contemporary—understated, precise, and as carefully composed as the beer itself.

Beyond Borders is an International Documentary Festival held annually in Kastellorizo, showcasing a curated selection of documentaries from around the world. For the 10th anniversary edition of Beyond Borders, a visual identity was developed with memory as a structural element of storytelling. The starting point was The Weavers (1905) by the Manaki brothers, one of the earliest examples of social documentation through moving images in the Greek and Balkan context.

Weaving is used as both a conceptual and formal reference. The identity is structured through repetition, layering, and subtle distortions, reflecting the gradual construction of narrative and image.

The color palette consists of intense, clean colors, situating the identity in a contemporary visual context. Typography remains simple and modern, functioning as a stable system that ensures clarity and consistency. The identity was designed as a flexible visual system, adaptable across print, digital, and spatial applications, maintaining a coherent graphic language at all scales.
