The goal of the assignment was to create a wedding suite with a deadline of one week. Each fictional couple had a specific theme, location, color palate, and request that required graphic designers to think outside the box.
The couple had specific wording they wanted on their invites, of which they required two versions: one in English and another in French. They wanted their wedding to feel bold, chic, contemporary, and summery. Their wedding colors were bright blue, olive, dark blue, light gray, and a light (but not lime) green.

Designing layouts for Kentucky Kernel, a student-run independent newspaper, involves creating visually engaging and organized pages that balance editorial content with graphics, photos, and advertisements. My design approach emphasizes clarity and readability while ensuring the newspaper's tone and values are effectively communicated to its student audience.
Once Upon a Plate Cookbook
In this project, I designed a professional cookbook that blends practical culinary guidance with creative visual design. The inspiration behind this work was based on Fairy Tales. Each recipe was inspired by a popular fairy tale with visual elements that aided the story. The design reflects storybooks with a contemporary color palette.
Using Adobe InDesign, I focused on creating a clean, visually cohesive layout that allowed each recipe to shine, integrating high-quality images sourced from public domain platforms or created in Photoshop and Illustrator. Attention to typography, image placement, and consistency ensured the book was not only functional but aesthetically pleasing.

The Backseat Lovers Swiss Concert Posters
The Swiss Gig Poster Project employs the aesthetic and ideals of the International Typographic Style (Swiss Style) from the 1940s-60s to a contemporary artist/band. Under this graphical style, I used a modular grid structure with a dichotomy of symmetry and asymmetry to create a compelling concert poster. The use of typographic elements to encourage the poster to be interactive, bold typeface, and scale inviting the viewer to analyze the Posters from multiple perspectives. The Backseat Lovers Swiss Concert Posters focused on capturing the clean, modernist design approach emphasizing clarity, structure, and visual dynamism.
