For nearly 500 years, Jakarta has undergone various transformations. The resilience of its residents has enabled Jakarta to continuously evolve into a progressive megacity. This year, Jakarta will also transition from its role as the national capital towards a new direction, emerging as a global city. The celebration of Jakarta’s 497th anniversary brings a spirit of optimism and pride to its residents as the city embraces this new chapter.

A unified identity for Jakarta’s 497th anniversary is a crucial milestone, marking the significant changes the city has undergone. It signifies Jakarta’s transition from being the nation’s capital to becoming a dynamic global city capable of competing on the international stage.

The visual identity reflects the optimism of Jakarta’s residents, characterized by harmony, resilience, synergy, and progressiveness—qualities that propel the city forward amidst its ongoing transformation.

This identity belongs to all Jakarta residents. Through their involvement in creating and adopting this identity, we collectively celebrate change, honor our cultural heritage, and shape a brilliant future for Jakarta as a global city.

I extend my gratitude to ADGI (Asosiasi Desain Grafis Indonesia) for providing us with the opportunity to contribute to our homeland. Happy anniversary, Jakarta!

The Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia is once again organizing the Kemenkeu Satu Negeri (KSN) 2024 event, this time with the theme “Bersatu untuk Mengabdi” (United to Serve). Entering its fourth year, KSN will be held for 5 days, bringing together 154 junior high school students from various regions across the country. The event will take place simultaneously in 5 locations: Jakarta, Palembang, Pontianak, Palu, and Manokwari.

We had the opportunity to collaborate on the entire digital media design process for the event, from conceptualizing diversity to producing merchandise that was applied to 11 types of merchandise. It was a delightful experience working on this project, and we poured our hearts into every illustration, bringing them to life so that the project could reach all participants, especially the school children, with joy and enthusiasm.

Freakie X-Lab is an initiative project that serves as a platform for exploring various mediums that support each other, ranging from illustration and storytelling to product development. Freakie X-Lab also serves as a way for Cipsi Studio to respond to the impact of artificial intelligence on design. It explores how AI can be utilized to enhance the design process without compromising the fundamental principles of design.

The project revolves around a sci-fi narrative about genetic engineering of animals, resulting in the creation of anomalous beings or monsters. At Freakie X-Lab, a team of researchers is conducting a large-scale project involving genetic engineering experiments on various animals, with a focus on reviving extinct species.

We envision Freakie X-Lab as a collaborative endeavor that unites science fiction enthusiasts and creators. To build momentum, we’re promoting the project on our Instagram account @freakiexlab, where we’ll share original stories and AI-generated visuals showcasing the creation of these anomalous beings. Our goal is for @freakiexlab to evolve into a community platform where fans can share their own stories and ideas about these creatures.
