Fred + Nym is an original character-driven IP rooted in warmth, everyday emotional storytelling, and the quiet, meaningful rhythms of friendship. At its heart are two contrasting personalities—one scattered and hopeful, the other calm, grounded, and occasionally grumpy—whose relationship generates gentle comedy and emotional truth. Developed as part of Studio 505, the project highlights my work in character design, tonal worldbuilding, and narrative-driven illustration.
The Relationship
Fred & Nym are defined by their relationship. One scattered and hopeful, the other calm, grounded, and occasionally grumpy, their bond creates gentle comedy and emotional truth. The project focuses on how two different temperaments move through the world together—finding warmth, humor, and meaning in small, everyday moments.
