What is visible, what is verified, and where the boundary sits.

01The challenge

Creepy vibes without scaring the kids

Asked to come up with a Halloween-themed design for Dave & Buster’s without competing or clashing with their existing branding. The Headless Horseman struck the ideal balance between creepy Halloween vibes and brand-safe event artwork.

02Design process

Silhouettes, sketches, and companion prints

A simple silhouette of the horseman over a black-and-white forest photo created strong atmosphere. Tying the D&B logo into a Jack-O-Lantern for the companion print brought the full set together.

03Applied production

Striking contrast on black event shirts

The final artwork delivered high visual impact when printed on black T-shirts for Dave & Buster’s Halloween event staff and attendees.

From first marks to real-world use.
