At ØTYPE, we treat AI as a creative partner, not a shortcut. Every design starts with human concepting: moodboards, sketches, visual motifs. We use AI to help us explore and evolve those ideas, then take them back into our hands for refinement — masking, adjusting, and hand-editing until the piece feels just right.

Some works feature hand-drawn backgrounds with AI-assisted silhouettes. Others use visual outputs as a springboard for manual composition. But every design is shaped by us with direction, curation, and care.

We believe art can exist at the intersection of instinct and innovation. And we’re proud to be part of that conversation; openly, with both integrity and excitement.

A: We see our process as a dialogue between human and machine, intuition, and intention. Each piece begins with a vision and grows through collaboration, shaped by instinct, iteration, and the mutual aspiration to create something truly unique. As this relationship evolves, so will our work. What we can create together is limited only by imagination; it’s organic, unpredictable, and infinitely open.

For us, this kind of collaboration carries a rare magic: the quiet thrill of creation, the spark between artist and algorithm, the shared breath before a dream becomes form. We think that’s special, and worth exploring.
