After handing out every shirt at the first show I designed for in 2025, Marcode collaborated with me for the entire 2026 event season.

I crafted an illustrated brand world for Marcode. See that here.

Event

Affilifest in Margate, UK, 2026

Inspiration

This event was held at a derelict amusement park called Dreamland. Featuring an old-arcade, it occurred to me to turn the entire occasion into a pinball machine that includes bits of the town, the park, and fraud references.

Mini merch

In addition to the shirt, Marcode brought along some temporary tattoos I designed.

This is an evergreen concept centered around internet cafes. In this case, an "internet fraud cafe" layered with Easter eggs everywhere.

Freight Island, an old shipping and railway yard-turned event space has a slogan "Escape to Freight Island." This tee'd me up to create an "Escape from Freight Island" concept with a maze.

"As a challenger brand in an industry of tired incumbents, we needed to stand out. Daniel gave us a look and feel that doesn't resemble anything else in our category. We're known in the industry for the annual merch collections he designs for us, and there's a constant queue at every conference we exhibit at. We'd highly recommend him."
