STUDIO MONIKER

Moniker was founded in 2012 and was an interactive design studio until 2023, until the two founders had went their separate ways to practice independently. When I first discovered this studio I was drawn as the projects had very odd and weird concepts to what I usually see, which made it very interesting as the ideas were out of the box, but made it all that more engaging. Some projects did not come across as polished, which was the beauty of the work.

the studio has explored AR/VR, collage, film and more. The designs they have created go typically against the rules of design. Seeing polished work and concepts everyday compared to coming across this studio was very refreshing. The work is very explorative, which is an important factor of design, concepts and ideas could get weird and it’s okay to explore that. Designing is really what you make of it and you can create anything with your imagination and exploration. This studio has encouraged me to explore designs, even if it doesn’t go to plan and it takes me off course from the initial idea. The journey to a design is just as important as the finished product.
