Art& Bloom was a multi-sensory celebration rooted in Persian maximalism—layered, expressive, and alive. The night marked the launch of art& and the North American debut of TPM (The Persian Mag).
Set in a soaring industrial space, the experience unfolded through curated cocktails, live vocals, jazz, DJs, small plates, and living art—each element intentionally abundant, overlapping, and designed to bloom together in celebration of rebirth and cultural creation.
Act I
Defining the Identity
The identity was shaped through motion, structure, and restraint. Letterforms were broken into modular glyphs and reassembled into a flexible system designed to work across static and animated states. Color was introduced with intention—rooted in cultural reference and contrast—supporting clarity, rhythm, and adaptability at every scale.
Act II
The Vocabulary of Bloom
The identity expanded into a modular illustration system built to move, repeat, and recombine. Elements flowed across motion, print, and tactile formats while maintaining a consistent visual rhythm—allowing the system to scale without losing character.
Act III
Taking It to the World
The launch was led through a sequence of art-directed video pieces supported by a cohesive digital rollout. Talent, setting, and motion were treated as primary storytelling tools, with the visual system grounding each asset into a unified release. Together, these elements framed the introduction of the event as a moment—designed to be felt before it was experienced.
Act IV
The Experience
The identity was realized through the live event itself. From menus and printed details to motion-led moments and candid interactions, every touchpoint was designed to feel cohesive and intentional. Food, drinks, and atmosphere became extensions of the visual system—captured through real moments as the space filled, the night unfolded, and the work moved from design into lived experience.
