Before the Midnight Hour Furniture Illustrations

Before the Midnight Hour

A series of black and white illustrations commissioned by Marc Krusin and featuring his most prominent furniture designs for Knoll and Desalto. Inspired by comics and noir cinema, the project breaks the conventions of furniture illustration by bringing narrative to the scenes, use of exaggerated perspective and a moody noir aesthetic. The lack of human presence and scattered objects add an element of mystery and suspense to the story, while the protagonist is revealed in a surprise ending. All images were drawn digitally in Adobe Photoshop using Wacom Cintiq tablet.

Before the Midnight Hour Furniture Illustrations by Martin Reznik was highlighted as an innovative illustration of communication design by the A' Design Awards. Before the Midnight Hour Furniture Illustrations earned the Golden A' Design Award in Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design in 2022. The A' Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design Award is a highly prestigious international design competition that honors exceptional design of logos, posters, infographics, brochures, packaging designs, business cards, book covers, billboards and more.
