Influencer Box

The world of branding is trending with companies dedicating time and money into PR Boxes, Influencer Box's, and Gifts that are sent to those taking over the social screen. With the brief to choose a company and design an Influencer Box that would generate buzz, grow brand exposure, and create organic content that would be shared through social media. With that said "Sun Bum" was the brand and base for this Influencer Box.

Pair Design

With the designs for two 3D printed bottle caps that connect to the chosen brand/product the brief was to elevate a brand through packaging that brought it to the luxury level. With the creative freedom to design packaging in whatever way fit the goal for the new demographic or the elements that wanted to be featured within the packaging.

Kikkoman Re-Design

The brief was to find a pre-exisiting product in the market that could be elevated in terms of how it stands out on the shelves. Kikkoman Panko Breadcrumbs was a product that fit this mark. With the process resulting in a new and modern logo, and new packaging that is sure to stand out to the rest.

F1 Modified Typeface

With the freedom to create three concepts that would then be narrowed down to one for a modified typeface, Formula One was the end concept. From there a whole typeface was modified off the Source Serif Variable base to have attributes of Formula One. This comes to a fully functional otf file with the use of Glyphs and Illustrator.

Kuniko's Menu Re-Design

Vinyl Design

With the inspiration of a graphic designer within the industry in mind, the design decisions were to base around the key aspects of the designer.
