Using codes and culture to fuel a printer’s mythos
Future Format
Elements 2
Studio life offers few opportunities to bask in past glory, so any chance to do so must be grabbed with both hands. In the afterglow of our award-winning identity design for Future Format, we were brimming with new ideas for scripting the printer’s on-going dialogue with culture. “Elements 2” is a snapshot of a business in full bloom: print publishing at its most ambitious—assembled from the collective energy of Greece’s brightest artistic talents.

For over four decades, Future Format has been a pivot point in Greece’s vibrant graphic arts scene. Their mastery of traditional techniques—along with a remarkable openness to technical innovation and collaboration—has earned them a place among Europe’s printing elite.
Accolades for Future Format’s 2021 identity reset earned significant international attention, ensuring that momentum for a new showcase publication was strong.
Maintaining and surpassing the high standards of “Elements 1” implied high stakes. It was a task that would demand championship-worthy levels of curiosity, coordination and creative flex.
The Elements publications demonstrate a special kind of virtuous circle: showcasing Future Format’s skills and sensibility through the assembled works of creatives in its orbit.
For a business that has channeled so much of its energy and ability into celebrating culture, “Elements 2” is an apt outlet: both a manifesto and a menu of limitless possibilities.
Many years of collaborating with publishers and museums have made us experts in concept and curation. We create print publications at all levels of complexity for a range of applications.
