description

Darklands is an annual fetish festival in Antwerp, Belgium, and the world's largest indoor fetish event, drawing attendees from around the globe. Our goal was to create cohesive visual communication for the MR. Riegillio booth while differentiating it from the House of Riegillio stage, which represents the brand's flagship Amsterdam store.

The MR. Riegillio booth features dark aesthetics with neon accents, while the stage offers a bright, psychedelic atmosphere.
