Sabo Day

Sabo Day is an Amsterdam based studio for art direction and visual communication.

In his design practice, Sabo Day performs precision and consistency while retaining a vexing, unconventional approach. His off-centre methodology can thus be pinned down via a series of oxymorons: soft yet bold, sombre yet upscale, solemn yet trivial. A trick. A façade. A shadow. A sign. An anthem. A jingle. A rose. A cliché.

Sabo Day’s vast experience and steady collaboration with numerous international artists, publishers and institutions allows him to develop prismatic yet straightforward visual identities. His commitment and dedication are but some of the many facets that come to nurture these very projects’ endurance. (text by Andrea di Serego Alighieri)
