A collaboration straight from Marseille
The Marseille collective Molo Molo is behind these surprising works of art. Their tools? Paint, spray cans, stencils, and a lot of imagination. Their mission? To raise awareness with humor, style, and creativity. The result: lettering inspired by comics, bright colors, and catchy slogans.

So, at your next red light, look down—you might just see a message that brings a smile and makes you think!
