THE ARRAY

highlighted projects.

1.

Find Me at the Crossroads was a comprehensive exploration into how relevant political theory can be when it comes to developing a career as a designer. Whether identity informed work helps or hinders our growth as young professionals in a diverse field.

The final product surveyed the student body of the arts college, & included interviews from graphic design majors on their approach to identity informed design.

Initial booklet concepting reflected the aesthetic of 3D glasses, and the preliminary gallery exhibition would rely on this technology as well.

Once classes moved online in 2020 and a gallery show became unrealistic, the focal point shifted to digital CMYK experimentation.

Not This Time was a collaborative poster project for a conceptual film about the history of AAPI civil rights in the 20th century. Elements included poster design, a logotype, and product mockups.

Gift guide, party game souvenir, & playlist cover.

5.

The Neoliberalism poster project was intended to be an experiment in symbolism, color, & guerrilla marketing for social design. Elements include preliminary sketches, poster drafts, and final motion graphics.

Initial iconography played on the superstition of crossing your fingers for luck.

The final product evolved to juxtapose liberal doctrines against each other. Liberalism now utilizes this symbol of luck, while neoliberalism is flipped on an axis to symbolize fingers crossed behind one’s back, a sign of deceit.

6.

Blueprint Cleaning Company was a conceptual business suite intended for a community pantry. Elements include company logo, pitch deck, and mockups.

Preliminary sketches & alternate logo.

Finalized logo, pitch deck, and detailed mockup for real world application of advertising materials.
