Sabice

Raffaele Sabella — the communication designer and art director behind Sabice — sets his personal site against a deep black backdrop where two elegant serif initials, R and S, sit inside overlapping rings of rotating Italian type. The circular lettering introduces him with quiet confidence as a brand identity designer and art director at Onlab, while a bold geometric portrait in electric blue and hot pink balances the composition on the right. That playful illustrated avatar, framed by the note “I am more geometric, more rounded,” brings warmth and wit to an otherwise refined, monochrome layout. Neat footer labels — designer, art director, illustratore freelance, available for collaborations — keep the information clear and generous. It is a stylish, self-aware piece of art direction that pairs classic type with a distinctly contemporary illustration.
