About

Co-lab (S7 Airlines Subbrand)

Identity, Digital, Merch

As part of the Co-lab creative team, I updated the design system for the company’s e-commerce, adapting its visual style for marketplaces and extending the brand’s presence to a broader audience. I developed key visuals, 3D objects, advertising layouts, and magazine ads aligned with Co-lab’s positioning as a modern brand that blends contemporary approaches with traditional self-care rituals.

This project for Co-lab translates the brand’s values of mindfulness, sustainability, and pleasure into a light, tactile visual language. Beyond e-commerce and advertising layouts, the identity unfolds into an atmospheric world of textures, forms, and narratives — from product campaigns to imaginative brand storytelling — reflecting Co-lab’s philosophy of modern self-care rituals.

Yesenin Moscow State Museum

Art direction, Identity, Website design

As a part of the design team, I worked on rebranding the museum to make Yesenin’s legacy resonate with younger audience. The challenge was to craft a flexible yet distinctive identity that could engage a wide range of visitors while respecting institutional requirements.

Shifting the focus from Yesenin’s biography, we highlighted the poet’s singular sensibility: his way of perceiving the world through imagery and intense emotion. We wanted the museum to stand out by presenting it as an open space for lively exploration and engagement.

The museum functions as a cultural space with exhibitions, a local café, posters, and merchandise kiosk – all reflected in its visual identity. So, projects such as reprints, mechandise pouch bags and posters for acorn coffee (a summer special and Yesenin’s favourite) followed.

Первая встреча скульптора и поэта произошла ещё до революции, предположительно в 1915 году. Знакомству Есенина и Конёнкова способствовал их общий товарищ — поэт Сергей Клычков. Случайная встреча двух творцов положила начало зарождению дружбы длиной в жизнь.
