The Phil­har­monic Choir Berlin is one of the most renowned or­a­to­rio choirs in Ger­many. For the 125th an­niver­sary, the tra­di­tional choir, founded in 1882, pre­sented it­self with a new look de­signed by Moni­teurs. Af­ter the 2007/​2008 sea­son, among other things, the posters of the con­cert se­ries in the Berliner Phil­har­monie Moni­teurs are in­di­vid­u­ally de­signed, Moni­teurs de­vel­oped in the course of the 2017/​2018 sea­son, a re­design of vi­sual com­mu­ni­ca­tion tools, which now the self-un­der­stand­ing of the choir – ana­log and dig­i­tal – into the city life trans­fers. Ty­pog­ra­phy and color trans­late the mood of the choral pieces vi­su­ally and make them vi­su­ally sound. The poly­phonic texts are at the cen­ter of the de­sign con­cept.

hammeskrause ar­chitek­ten, an ar­chi­tec­tural of­fice from Stuttgart, is spe­cial­ized in pro­jects in the fields of in­dus­try, pub­lic build­ings, build­ings for care and health, and es­pe­cially in sci­ence and re­search build­ings with some­times highly com­plex re­quire­ments.

In 2018, a move to more mod­ern premises marked an in­ten­sive phase of fur­ther de­vel­op­ment – hammeskrause was look­ing for a part­ner to work with them on a sta­ble foun­da­tion and de­velop a con­tem­po­rary and mod­ern ex­ter­nal im­age.

Moni­teurs de­signed the on­line pres­ence for the ar­chi­tec­tural pho­tog­ra­pher Ste­fan Schilling. The web­site was de­signed on the ba­sis of a Word­Press theme and adapted to the re­quire­ments of Ste­fan Schilling. His pri­mary area of ac­tiv­ity is ar­chi­tec­tural pho­tog­ra­phy, al­though ed­i­to­r­ial or doc­u­men­tary mis­sions for agen­cies and ed­i­to­r­ial of­fices are also part of his port­fo­lio.
The task was to clearly but in­di­vid­u­ally po­si­tion the mul­ti­fac­eted pho­tographs from the pro­jects and si­mul­ta­ne­ously re­flect his artis­tic ap­proach. From this grows a multi-lay­ered archive. The pre­sen­ta­tion of the works is ac­com­pa­nied by texts in large ty­pog­ra­phy and gives the site a bold, ex­pres­sive face.
