Great new work from Valencian illustrator Sergio Membrillas

Date
20 January 2016

Sergio Membrillas just keeps on knocking out visual puns that layer both meaning and subtle shades to great effect. His recent work has included posters for Julie Byrne and Gun Outfit that feature sassy ladies with carefully placed locks, a man who appears to be trapped in a pizza slice and characters in the midst of scientific research; as well as many other commissions for the MIT Technology Review, Die Zeit and Wired. On his website Sergio describes his studio as “The illustration office that you need”, and if intelligent, witty and well composed illustration is what you’re after – and our previous articles on his work are anything to go by – then we think he might just be right.
