Pinar&Viola is an office for contemporary image making, founded by Pinar Demirdag and Viola Renate. We suggest new forms of visual representation in the age of digitalization. Besides our autonomous projects, we work in commission as creative direcors.
Pinar&Viola initiated a new way of working in the realm of design. Every year, we launch a Surface Collection, where we create a fantasy scenario reflecting an extreme happening, a sensation or a change which we believe will mark the years to come. Our former collections include The Credit Card Collection, Diva Opaque, 4eva, Scandal Aqua and Optical illusion selfies.
These collections and our other autonomous projects form a cutting-edge inspiration source for the projects we do in commission. Our client list is broad, from technological companies, fashion designers and museums to musicians and popular brands.
We are also open to share our vision with others. We give advice as brand strategists, assisting to develop the vision of a brand as consultants for the future trends to come.
