Media Designs
Here you will find designs made for events, social media, and more.
Posters
The Craft Bar
The Craft Bar, a business in which customers may create their own quirky candles, perfume, painting, soap, and more, requested an ad campaign featuring their many products as well as their fun and funky branding. I aspired to create a campaign that featured a combination of their products and wanted to go even further to create a miniature campaign featuring soap in the various fruit scents The Craft Bar offers.
(INSIDE) DENTRO Play
Inside Dentro is a play about a young girl who was sexually abused by her father. She attempted to speak out about what she was enduring, but her community refused to listen to the word of a child over the word of the girls father, a respected adult. In this poster I worked to convey the sense of fear that was instilled in the girl and the silence that was forced upon her by those who refused to believe her because they did not want to disrupt the status quo of their current community.
Zara Hadid Gallery
Michigan State University Broad Art Museum hosted an event with graphic designer Tarek Atrissi, in which he worked with a small group of students to create posters for an imagined Zara Hadid showcase. Hadid is a renowned designer, known for their unconventional shapes. We were tasked with using AI to create a piece of furniture we imagined she might make. Then, we used that furniture to develop a unique poster to match Hadid's style of design.
Subway Map- American Advertising Awards Winner
In this project we were asked to develop a map for a subway system that would take Michigan State University students across campus. I decided to theme my map around beverages, imagining people's favorite drinks as stations, favorite categories (such as flavors) as lines and descriptive wording for each line as stops. Labeling it Refresh Metro, I layered the campus map under my original design so that this hypothetical subway would be operable without changing MSU's current campus layout.
App Designs
Ann Arbor Adopt App
'Adopt don't shop' is a phrase I believe in greatly, so when I was assigned to create an app for anything I had a passion for, I knew I wanted to create an animal adoption app. I created Ann Arbor Adopt as a way to showcase my design abilities across multiple pages. I was able to develop a working prototype within two weeks that had pages, subpages and different sections on each imagined pet available at Ann Arbor Adopt.
Magazines
Rock Music Magazine
ROCK Magazine was designed in order to learn more about AI capabilities from writing about instruments and their specialities in crafting interesting music, to creating images, including those with humans in them. Each image was created while keeping the feel of the magazine in mind, a calm and collected energy that contrasted with the topic of ROCK magazine: rock music.
