This is a website I recently did for a client. They wanted a simple and custom Squarespace based website with very minimal elements so that clients can easily access it and navigate through it with ease. 

This catalogue was produced as a form of documentation for the installation pieces that I created. It was a way of giving another perspective into the ideals and perceptions I had when in the process of creating the emotion and meaning behind this project. It also helps users understand how I got from one idea to the final product in the end. 

These installation pieces were influenced by my perceptions of what cosmetic surgery really represents to people in Korea or all over the world. The way I saw what they truly believe to be perfection was really bits and pieces of misidentity.

Here is my custom typeface, Vylite, inspired by the stylings of today's modern sans serif. Its foundation started off with the typeface Source Sans Pro and ended up being a much more organic and smooth typeface that is more of an art form

My container was inspired by my professor who always struggled to find the right luggage that was easy to use and easy to store. Here is my concept design for a container that can be made from any biodegradable material, can be made in any size, using no tape or glue, and is extremely user friendly.

This container is a concept made for the on-the-go person. It is meant to be used as a take out container that holds your utensils, condiments and napkins all in your hand. It is biodegradable and has no tape or glue. It can fold and unfold into a single sheet of paper for easy transportation and construction.

Re-brand project for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. I decided to take the leap and change their name entirely taking out the word "stroke" because it felt a little cold and sterile. Having the words "heart" and "health" speaks more towards their purpose and what their goals and accomplishments are. Creating a heart logo to go with the brand, it creates a unity within the marketing elements plus the stationary aspects. It creates a familiarity within the brand while also being able to have a simple element within their advertisements and marketing promotions.

For those who love to travel this package was inspired to be compact yet practical. Encases two face towels, a small bar of soap, and a towel hanger to hang wherever necessary. 

Verve Hair Design is a hair salon that needs a bit of help with its promotional and marketing elements. Starting off small, I designed a few gift certificates or incentives to get clients interested and aware. I am also building their website, facebook page, and instagram page. Coming soon! 

This is an Intro for the Images Festival. Creating the hand drawn effect with the white markers and the mix of different tones accentuate the feeling and emotions portrayed in the video.

Typography is one of my passions to design and play around with. This project involves about six different typefaces and their unique typographic elements. I fused them together to create the phrase "we design ourselves" as a way of showing that us designers are built on bits and pieces of different inspirations and influences we approach everyday.
