"Powst - After the point comes the line" is a comprehensive exhibition and design concept that addresses the question of what properties the design medium of line entails and how it persists in today's cultural concerns. The work encompasses the fields of communication design, editorial design and motion design, and stands out for its careful implementation of all relevant aspects.

The project includes the development of an exhibition on the theme of "line" with contemporary works of art as well as an adequate visual appearance, both inside and outside the exhibition. The two key visuals, the "Badge" and the "Tape", serve as a common thread and design recognition values. The "Tape" is used in various applications such as admission tickets, invitations, merchandise and digital media such as social media and the website.
