WORDPRESS SITE / MERCHANDISE:
Rebrand for their Wordpress site, we decided on a clean minimal design to be more consistent with the college's branding. The main objective was to direct customers to it’s location and the online catalogue for MCAD merchandise.
All MCAD merchandise was designed in house.
SECONDARY LOGO:
Designed secondary logo for the Art Cellar to mimic the chalkboard they update monthly at the front of the store. Secondary logo was intended to be used on tote bags. Every year an Art Cellar employee was chosen to design a new tote bag for the store.

Together we designed two logos, one more refined for the education side and another for the punk side of this unique brand. We envisioned the first logo to work well with the blog and podcast and the latter to promote the journal in a diy manner with stickers and bookmarks.

PERSONAL PROJECT
I admire the simplicity and artistic nature of the Olsen Twins fashion label The Row and I gain a lot of inspiration from their designs.
The Row, established in 2006 by Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen, is named in reverence of London's Savile Row. The fashion house preserves the bespoke standards of exquisite fabrics, impeccable details and perfect silhouettes. The Row translates these values to its womenswear and menswear collections.
They were featured in Interview Magazine by Anne Slowey in 2011 and I wanted to create a booklet in the design aesthetic of the Row and featuring the conversation from Interview Magazine.
Project in process.
