About
“The thing is to climb the mountain from under your feet, never the one in front of you.” O.H.
Synopsis™ spawned out of a strong belief in doing good work, in analyzing beyond the surface, in provoking thought, in touching people’s hearts, in educating and exploring new ways in visual culture. This belief is still shared today by its founders Ovidiu Hrin and Silvia Hrin who are running the studio together since December 8th, 2001.
The independent design studio employs talented people while working on both cultural and commercial design projects. For the sake of custom-tailored solutions, the team has remained small and focused throughout the years using a teleological approach toward the building of complex communication systems & visual identities. Some of the posters, books, magazines & visual identities designed in this studio have been published, awarded and exhibited in honorable company all around the globe like The Art Directors Club (NY) – The Cooper Hewitt (NY) – IF Design Archive (D) – Red Dot Design Museum (D)– Toyama Triennial (JP) – Graphis Design International (NY) – Chaumont Poster Festival (FR) – Brno Biennial (CZ) – Golden Bee (RU) – Shenzhen Biennial (CHN) – American Institute of Graphic Arts (US) – European Design Awards (CH) – Type Directors Club (NY) – Tokyo Type Directors Club (JP) – Museum of Design Zurich (CH) and many more…
