Scaragami Branding
Branding system for a fictional boutique paper company entitled, Scaragami Paper Co. The logo mark was inspired by Egyptian scarab beetles and the polygonal forms of origami paper-folding. Scaragami Paper Co. imports fine papers from Egyptian paper artisans who specialize in papyrus paper blends, hence the reference to the beetle.

Virtuous Circle
The challenge was to create a brand for Virtuous Circle, a non-profit loan organization, that marriages professionalism and credibility with approachability in order to reach the student market. Our solution was founded upon the overlapping of colorful shapes where beauty is found in the coming together of colorful, diverse individuals that together paint a unified picture.

Gilbert Typeface Design
This typeface was inspired by and named after the Gilbert apartment building on Queen Anne Avenue. I was drawn to the unique spur on the ‘G’ and designed this typeface based on the building’s signage. Gilbert functions as a display typeface and is best featured in all-caps.

Homelessness Information Design
These posters aim to raise an awareness and to inform audiences of the practical ways in which they can help alleviate the problem by becoming a part of the solution in the most fundamental way: by forming and maintaining relationships. Everyday examples and metaphors are used to illustrate this information so that it is relatable to the audience.
