Philip DiBello

The portfolio of Brooklyn graphic designer Philip DiBello is a masterclass in restraint and typographic order. It opens on a stark black screen with a single Oblique Strategies prompt, then unfolds into a precise, tabular index of projects — Harvard Art Museums, Scope Architecture, Sightglass Coffee — each neatly annotated with its role and collaborators. Set in crisp Neue Haas Grotesk with clear rules and columns, the layout reads like a well-kept ledger of a thoughtful practice. The switch from black to white and back again gives a quiet sense of chapters as you scroll. It is disciplined, system-based typography and web design that lets the work speak plainly.
