Penguin Books
"Famous Couples" Book Cover
Tasked with creating a book cover of a famous couple of fact or fiction, young or old, I decided to create a book cover for Achilles and Patroclus from the Madeline Miller's book, "The Song of Achilles." Since the publisher was Penguin Books, I wanted to stay true to some of their classic styles and add in various illustrations befitting of both characters and their story. This is my process.
Icons for Awareness
Tasked with creating a campaign to raise awareness about a local event, I chose to focus in on the San Diego Housing Crisis. One of the factors of it? Large-scale investment companies buying multiple affordable apartment buildings and marking up the rents and neglecting the needs of their current tenants. In my campaign, I sought to expose Blackstone, one of San Diego's biggest landlords and lawmakers, of their participation in this crisis.
For this graphic design project, we were tasked with creating two broadside posters for a song of our choosing. Through research and our own personal perspectives, we would create two posters that would reflect the energy, tone, and themes of the song.
Through imagery and creative typography, we would produce posters that would reflect what we as students have been learning about color, scale, intentional grid systems, and typography.
