BADIALLO DIAWARA
GRAPHIC DESIGNER

Currently working at The New School.





Badiallo recognized from a young age the joy, impact, and importance of communicating thoughts, ideas, interests, and emotions with others. As a first-generation individual born to Malian immigrants in New York City, communication became Badiallo’s way of sharing unique and underrepresented perspectives with the world. Discovering graphic design nearly a decade ago opened a path for Badiallo to express these thoughts and viewpoints in ways that words alone could not capture. Badiallo found meaning in realizing that the people who resonated with the work didn’t always share the same background but connected through shared experiences and emotions. As a graphic designer and communicator, Badiallo continues to craft art that speaks across boundaries, driven by a desire to engage with and inspire a diverse audience.

Elektra Records Mock Branding - Pentagram Program Project

Mock branding created through the CCNY × Pentagram program (2022).
Elektra Records is a record label representing artists who play contemporary folk and rock music. For this brand identity, my inspiration came from how a record spins and how the artwork and words on records distort as the music plays.
