Check out this extremely creative interactive campaign of IKEA in Paris…

Tarek Atrissi has been a fulfilling source of inspiration ever since I started college. His designs are inspiring and his creative concepts are a pleasure to practice, they’re built on ideas that are strong and straight-forward. He doesn’t only master the art of arabic typography, but also devotes himself to each medium available out there.
