Spatial Design Study: Vitra Fire Station

Objective: Create a visually appealing presentation on Vitra Fire Station by Zaha Hadid. 

Tools used: Photoshop, Illustrator, Cinema 4D

Brief: Worked with a group to create physical and 3D models of the Vitra Fire Station. The point was to allow audience a clear idea of the structure and space.

UI Design: Weather & Forum App

Design for a mobile app that provides two main functions for active and passive use.
Aids users in practical use in determining weather conditions specific to location and sport activity (surfing or snowboarding)

Provides community in a simple user posting board. Members can interact with those of like interest even when they are not actively out participating in the sports.

Designed to follow theme of original surf and snowboard magazine "KODIAK" (pdf download of magazine here)

Graphic Design: Magazine revamp

Objective: Create a redesign for Yoga Journal for a cleaner, updated, refreshing design.

Redesigned: cover, table of contents, masthead, editor letter, and a full spread (opening pages and 2 follow up spreads)

Tools used: Indesign

Brief: For a revised yoga magazine, my concept was clean and classic style. 

Ideally it would look calm without being overly cheesy ‘zen’. The original magazine also had a clean design, but it was cluttered and text heavy. Therefore the redesign uses more images and white space for easier reading and and overall lighter feeling.

Graphic Design: Cookbook revamp

Objective: Redesign an old cookbook from pure text to a modern design that would be appealing to a wide audience range. Create recipe spreads that are visually appealing but are also straight forward to follow and easy to understand.

Tools used: Indesign

Brief: My concept was to create a more fun and energetic look that I felt would engage not only coffee lovers, but other readers who find the delicious images and the draw of over 100 recipes eye-catching. By using full spread photos, it became more reader friendly version by breaking up the text clusters without having it look too fragmented or like an empty page.
