ELBRIOT FESTIVAL 2025
For the iconic Elbriot Festival in Hamburg 2025, I crafted a bold and dynamic visual identity. Central to the design is a retro skull with octopus tentacles ( And, yes, I know these are technically arms, not tentacles) — a striking, surreal emblem that captures the festival’s intense energy and echoes the vibe of the bands. The identity comes alive through textured details and impactful graphics applied across posters, merchandise, and digital channels. The outcome is a powerful brand that resonates as strongly as the festival’s music.

Elbriot is a one-day open-air metal festival in Hamburg, first launched in 2013, and has featured legendary acts like Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax, Kreator and Machine Head alongside modern heavyweights such as Architects, In Flames, Enter Shikari, and Arch Enemy. I have been responsible for the festival’s design and branding since its very first edition in 2013.
