Merchandise DesignClient: Signal Sounds2026
Commissioned to design a new range of merchandise, T-shirts, tote bags and stickers, for Signal Sounds, a Glasgow-based synthesiser, Eurorack modular and studio equipment shop, marking their expansion into the EU with a new store in Warsaw.

The brief called for a concept that felt fresh while sitting comfortably within Signal Sounds' existing identity, built as a system capable of generating variations across each item. Rather than the simple, single-line Lissajous curves typically seen in the sector, I wanted something more layered and textured, while staying recognisably rooted in the same idea.

Using Processing, I built a digital oscilloscope that generates Lissajous curves from live audio input, exported as SVG and used to create three distinct curve patterns across the range. With the store now shipping worldwide, the concept combines the grid of a classic oscilloscope display with a wireframe globe, the Lissajous curves sitting within this "Oscillo-Globe," with both store locations, Glasgow and Warsaw, subtly worked into the design.
