Project Details
Title: Hand-Drawn “No AI” Illustration Badges
Client: Peer Giemsch (Germany)
Type: Commissioned Illustration / Visual Identity Elements
My Role: Illustration, Concept Development, Visual Design
Status: Completed
Scope of the Project
• Development of custom hand-drawn illustration overlays and badges emphasizing the absence of AI-generated content
• Creation of exclusive visual symbols tailored specifically to the client’s project and communication needs
• Illustration of minimalist graphic elements suitable for professional and editorial contexts
• Design of an additional child-friendly Bunny Bear variation to demonstrate stylistic adaptability for different audiences
• Preparation of illustrations for print and digital applications, including brochures, whitepapers, and branding materials
• Conceptual alignment of visual elements with discussions around authenticity, authorship, and human-made creativity
Project Description
For Peer Giemsch, I created a commissioned series of hand-drawn illustration overlays and badges designed to clearly communicate that no AI tools were involved in the creation of the visuals. These symbols were developed exclusively for his project and remain his intellectual property.
Beyond their immediate functional use, the illustrations engage with a broader conversation around creativity, authorship, and the role of AI in creative workflows. While AI can support analysis and process optimization, this project intentionally emphasizes illustration as a human-driven, expressive craft.
The set includes both minimalist, professional designs and a kid-friendly Bunny Bear version, demonstrating how custom illustration can be adapted across tonal ranges and target audiences. The visuals are suitable for use in editorial imagery, brochures, whitepapers, and branding projects, where authenticity and clarity of communication are essential.
Hand-Drawn Symbol Series – Commissioned Design for Authentic Branding
For Peer Giemsch (Germany), I created a commissioned series of hand-drawn overlays and badges designed to highlight: no AI involvement. These exclusive symbols were tailored to his project and remain his intellectual property.
The work reflects a broader debate: while AI can be useful for workflow analysis, true illustration and creativity must remain human-made. This project demonstrates how authentic visuals can strengthen identity and communication, especially on imagery, in brochures, whitepapers, and branding projects
Alongside minimalist designs, I also developed a kid-friendly Bunny Bear version, showing how custom illustration can adapt to diverse audiences.
If your organization is looking for tailored illustrations or visual elements for print or digital use, I’d be glad to create something unique for you.
