About

MiRiS channels the visual atmosphere of degraded film stock and Eastern European art galleries. We work with imperfection as material.

Game Prototypes

Experimental mechanics and visual systems developed alongside the miris.bar game-making circle.

Aesthetic

Multi-layered grain systems reference analog photographic processes. Grain is the primary design material, not decoration.

Selected Works

A curated selection of projects spanning print design, digital interfaces, and experimental media installations.

Process

Each artifact carries visible grain: not smooth generative noise, but harsh clumping grain of expired film pushed three stops.

Typography

Zilla Slab headlines paired with Source Sans 3 body text, creating the typographic tension of documentary film credits.

Duotone

Warm and cool channels (#C4723A and #4A6670) reference analog duotone printing, creating persistent color temperature split.

Texture & Marble

Weathered marble of old European building facades, where centuries of soot have turned white into mottled warmth.
