FEATURED WORK
Graphic and Print Design - Personal Identity
In developing a design for my personal identity, I wanted to balance creativity with structure to illustrate the balance I am always striving for in design. The logo fulfills this in a simple yet effective form, respecting the values of negative space and subtle colors. Not only is the logo successful as a graphic, but it also opens wide door of possibilities for future marketing development, a first of which was demonstrated in the Identity Evolution piece.
Medium: Print Design
Project: Personal Identity Self-Promotion
Date: Fall 2008 (2nd Year)
In order to promote my design aptitude, a self-promotional piece was designed demonstrating the evolution of my personal identity logo. With this piece I allowed myself more creativity than with the business card and stationary. Deriving the square from the center of the logo, I connected it with the original sketches used to create the logo in order to produce a short quip.
