here are some samples of my work:
Summer Festival
A design system inspired by Biosphere's instrumental album, Summer Festival. Each song features nature sounds such as babbling brooks and songbirds, and the tracks are based around a theme of innocent, nostalgic romance. The design conveys this through deliverables showcasing blooming floral illustrations and a romantic love letter/postal motif.
april fools
April Fools is an album by indie-pop artist The Scary Jokes. These designs are based around the juxtaposition between The Scary Jokes' sugary-sweet synth-pop sound and lyrics that tell the story of misplaced optimism in a tumultuous relationship. The full system includes a promotional motion graphic, custom album sleeve, and the 18x24" gig poster.
just my type
Just My Type is an Old Maid-style pairing game with a design history twist! Players learn about typefaces from various eras, classifications, and alphabets and how they have influenced one another throughout design history. The gameplay is simple: pair the typefaces with their indicated match and avoid having the infamous Comic Sans (the "Joker") in your possession!
