Nojoke Studio is a socially engaged design studio working in the fields of social and societal issues, graphic design and illustrations. My work is mainly centered around making serious themes such as politics or the environment more aware and tangible. Often the end product is not a goal in itself but a medium to share a message. In practice this means that I deliver a wide range of designs and services from research to participation sessions, and from games to illustrations.
As a human being, it can feel frustrating to feel powerless when confronted to the issues the world is facing. But as a designer I try to use this frustration as an inspiration and translate it in my work, by giving shape to current social issues and putting them in the spotlight. I believe design can be a tool for activism. The products I create are a medium to share a message with an audience, to confront them with things they might know but don’t want to think about. By doing this I hope to raise awareness amongst people so they realize they can also start to take action on their scale.
