Hello Menthol team was the one that built the entire visual strategy for TEDxBucharest. The proposed solution went to the core of “Make it Happen” and had as key graphical elements normal tools that people on the stage used in real life to build their stories, tools that wouldn’t have mean anything without determination, passion and a huge load of work.
