There’s a depth and rawness to it. A darkness which we wanted to be reflected in all of the graphic material, to give the feeling that you’re given access to a personal diary.

Working closely together with Daniel Åberg, I wrote hundreds of versions of every word, not necessarily trying to achieve beauty but rather something personal and honest. The rawness comes, in part, from wearing out pens to about 10% of capacity and getting a gritty texture.
