I extracted the bigger themes and patterns that embody my student work and created a magazine that showcases and discusses a few relating topics in the field of graphic design. Presented are a few spreads of the 52 page magazine.
Archer is a beautiful typeface designed by Tobias Frere-Jones (with Jesse Ragan). The purpose of this project was to choose a typeface and create a specimen book that enhanced its typographic features and aesthetic characteristics.
Graphic translation of Maya Angelou’s persona in light of her poem “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings”. Listening to her interviews and recitation of her work, rhythm was no doubt a part of the typographic treatment of the biographic article and poem.
To understand the different ways to create hierarchy, we made multiple posters starting with limiting typographic exercises (using line breaks only for example) working our way up to more complex designs.
The purpose of the project was to design a poster that clearly visualized data taken from a magazine’s media kit (a document that shows stats for annual activity). The result was a kick-ass info-graphic inspired by the layered aesthetic of the International Designers Network Magazine (http://www.idnworld.com/).
