If you run out of the right tools, just build them yourself!

That inside look at our digital workflow was exactly what our Art Director Firyal Purwanto (Ferry) shared at the first edition of Works in Progress, a new format by ex-Forkie Sean Loomis.
Using our recent Spielwarenmesse case study, Ferry showed how we leverage AI-generated tools to unlock design possibilities that would be impossible with traditional workflows. The result? Transforming just a few stills into a fully interactive, living landing page for the mascot Furryngton.
Big thanks to Designzentrum Hamburg for hosting us! 💛

Did you know that our very own Mar-KI-Mark is a doctor? „Of what?“ we hear you asking. „Of motion design, 3D design, and subdermal design, Digga!“ would be an appropriate response and that would mean this St. Pauli aficionado comes with three doctoral degrees. We’d go with that response because it somehow fits the wunderkind story of Huffy, who was able to operate the terminal of his C64 even before he could read. When he finally left his childhood bedroom, he began leaving his mark (sic!) on everything one can paint, spray, or prompt. He-Mark is a master of the visual multiverse and, what’s even doper than that, he lights up any given workday or video call with the sunshine of his mind.

Those who want innovation must not fear the blank page.
Or as Roman Hilmer puts it:

„Creativity is primarily about openness. You have to keep your inner critic in check to allow new paths to emerge in the first place.“

Roman has been nominated as a finalist for PAGE Magazine’s Creative of the Year.

You can cast your vote until Friday via the link in our story 🖤

Ania delivers good design because she effectively tackles challenges, creates real value for users, and never forgets the poetry of the work.
Her outcomes are as clear as day, while the creative process within her remains dark and inexplicable. Even an observational analysis leaves only questions and a feeling, like after watching Mulholland Drive on a Keracolor Keraclonic Sphere, around 25 or six minutes to four in the morning. The process is Ania’s very own journey, which remains unfathomable, even when she tells us that it feels to her like wandering through Basquiat-yellow deserts under an ultramarine Paris-Texas sky and across many cultural borders. It is her creative process—complex, rich, and enigmatic—but it always leads to a clear and wonderful outcome.

A cultural explorer, Pasqual is on a lifelong quest for the perfect brand. Well aware that perfection can never be achieved, he travels space and time to get close to the special intensity that lies at the heart of every near-perfect branding. The type-geek uses a ‘lost Baedeker’ for his field notes on how to make or break the rules of identities to come. As a ‘90s minimalist and idealist, the Munich-based Herr Schillberg has no interest in taming brands, but in opening up immensity for them.

System design for systemic relevance 🩺
16 states, hundreds of local health departments — and visually, everyone doing their own thing. 🚧

We put an end to this visual chaos for the German Public Health Service (ÖGD). Right on time for today’s #LocalHealthAuthorityDay, here’s the result of our collaboration with our colleagues at fischerAppelt relations:
No “pretty rebranding”, but a highly modular communication system. Brand technology serving society.

🔴 Strong nationwide identity with maximum local flexibility.
🔴 Complex health information—accessible, digital, and clearly structured.

Design isn’t just decoration here; it’s digital infrastructure. It creates clarity, and clarity drives trust. The most critical currency in prevention.
Design systems in the public sector: Just a “nice-to-have” or a hard requirement for building public trust? What’s your take?

We tell Lea’s tale as an epic, accompanying our heroine through the highs and lows of research, conceptualization, and design.🧙🏻‍♀️

She wanders through the void known as Paperwhite, outruns the ever-hungry web crawlers, and resists the siren song of the Arctic Monkeys. She scales Alpine peaks to frolic with the cloud dancers, yet always finds her way back to the valleys of daily craft. Lea is both generalist and specialist. Accompanied by her faithful alarm clock, she navigates the world of ones and zeros for anyone seeking a truly eventful life.

Tattooed stray kitten goes from abandoned to loved. Yeah, this would make a good headline for our story with Susi. Having picked her up in our backyard, one rainy-day, she turned out to be creative Wonder Girl. We can’t tell who’s luckier, the girl with the ship on her forearm or her new people. 🖤

Join The Force! 🪩
At Fork, we don’t build digital business cards. We develop scalable brand technology for art, culture, and business. That means: complex architectures, API-first approaches, and an absolute passion for clean solutions.

We are looking for a Senior Fullstack Developer (m/f/d) in Hamburg, Berlin, or Cologne.

Modern Stack: React, Next.js ➡️ Headless is a language we speak fluently.

TechTime: Once a month, the time is yours. Spend it on internal standards, infrastructure, or deep learning.

Teamwork: You are a sparring partner for design and concept. We negotiate architecture instead of just processing tickets.

What you bring to the table:
You have mastered modern deployment workflows, love high-performance systems, and have a deep understanding of UX/UI. You want to take responsibility for software architectures that truly make an impact.

Then let’s talk. 🛠️

Algorithms are great for efficiency, but they suck at curation. That’s why our monthly Unstable Tunes are hand-picked by the humans behind the scenes at Fork.

Volume 11 is a high-contrast mix of technical precision and creative grit. From the glitchy textures of Oneohtrix Point Never to the heavy-duty energy of Queens of the Stone Age.

It’s the sound of deep focus, pixel perfection, and the occasional system crash. 🛠️
