The Ways We Disconnect

A series of editorial illustrations for WorkLab – a platform developed for Microsoft, dedicated to the science and stories behind the future of work. 

The illustrations, commissioned by San Francisco-based creative agency Godfrey Dadich, were to accompany an article about how people around the world are finding better ways to set boundaries between work and personal life. This series of paper cut images were created based on the themes 'Peace of Mind', 'Schönen Feierabend' (translated as "evening celebration") and 'Clocking Off', each featuring the same calming circular motif tying the series together.
