Halim Harrache

Senior Designer and Artist

2021 – Present

Following the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Agency (MAD Diffusion Serviced) where I had been employed ceased operations, prompting me to delve into the realm of online freelancing. Leveraging my accumulated expertise, I swiftly adapted to this new professional landscape. Over the course of the past four years, my tenure as a freelance practitioner has been characterized by a continuous pursuit of excellence and a steadfast commitment to growth. This journey has not only exposed me to a plethora of opportunities but has also presented me with a myriad of novel challenges. Each obstacle surmounted has served as a catalyst for acquiring invaluable insights and honing my skills within the dynamic domain of design.

Product Design

From modelling to texturing, lighting, and rendering, I created this pen for Block & Böhe following their brief. I took inspiration from classic luxurious fountain pens but put a modern flair to the overall feel of the design with sleek and slim trims and curves. The final result turned out to be great and appreciated by the client.

Revenant

Revenant is as they put it “ The first decentralized gaming platform on Metis. Explore Revenant’s decentralized gaming ecosystem for gamers, game developers, and investors. Earn $GAMEFI while you play and trade with Revenant!” They reached out to me for a second time “After the Vesus Project” to create yet another NFT series for their platform Revenant.gg to be used as nodes and stake investments. The Sculpture was provided to me by Skywarrior Studios’ Art director and I was tasked with bringing it to life with a vivid and animated environment that matched the mood and vision of the brand. The word Revenant means “a person who has returned, especially supposedly from the dead.” So the overall mood needed to be dramatic, with a limited color pallet which consisted of only neutral grays and neon green. The lighting played a big role in conveying the mood.

Abstract Artwork for NinetyNineDesigns Calendar

3D Abstract Artwork for 99Designs Calendar. I'm a huge 3D nerd, I love everything about 3D, so when I saw the 99D Community contest, I knew that this was my chance to do whatever I want creatively without worrying about a specific direction. I wanted to create an abstract look with multiple colors and shapes without it being confusing, rather being so full yet minimal, a hard vision to achieve XD, but at last, I did it. It all started from the center, the red ruby sphere is the creative eye, and the two torus shapes around it are the creativity harvesters, then we have the blue floating beds a throwback to the summer days, on the left we have two toys that were a huge part of my childhood, the glass marble and the Beyblade, the blue sticks represent music soundwaves as its an essential partner to every creative individual. My goal is that when people look at this illustration is, that it would feel fresh and new every time they look at it, they would discover a hidden detail in it every day and would make connections with the shapes on their own, everyone sees stuff on his own way, so this would give them an image to a memory one day.

Architectural visualization render

A 3D architectural visualization render depicting an industrial manufacturing facility for BPH Equipment LLC. The client sought to revitalize the building's appearance with a fresh paint application. However, they wished to explore various options before finalizing the decision. Utilizing reference images supplied by the client, I modeled the entire compound, applied textures, and added a beautiful environment to go with the render. The outcome yielded a photorealistic representation that greatly satisfied the client's expectations and requirements.
