Series of animated cards created for the homepage of Kontour, an independent type foundry run by type designer Sibylle Hagmann. Built in After Effects and exported as lightweight JSON files (35–250 KB), the animations render in the browser as scalable vectors at 60 fps.

Licini-Morandi divergenze parallele
readI’m a freelance graphic designer working with small and medium-sized businesses, agencies, freelancers, institutions and associations. I design logos that last, clear catalogues and price lists, effective advertising materials, essential packaging, websites built for visitors rather than search engines, and engaging 2D animations. I combine photography, shapes, typefaces and colors (but never Pantone’s Color of the Year) to promote products, services and events. I live in a small village in Central Italy facing depopulation and I work halfway between the kitchen and the bedroom.
