The Lighthouse Society

The Lighthouse Society

Another visual identities done for a lighthouse society, who are a group of people restoring the light houses of north america. I went for a more abstract light symbol of the lighthouse, because that is the one common thing between all the different types of lighthouses.

ICARUS

Icarus Visual Identity
We were to develop visual identities for 'clients' we were given. This is mine for ICARUS.

Copyright Brochure


So this is a copyright brochure i designed, its for copyright when it comes to graphic design. In my design i showcase three very talented artists who did the drawings, which they have been given credit on the back on the brochure, each with a little paragraph about them, and links to their websites. Definitely check out this artists, they have amazing talent. Full copyright of their works is to them.

Mirror Mirror on the wall





Applied Arts Magazine Spread
For business class we first had to write a essay on the three types of businesses you can open and their advantages and disadvantages. Then we were to create a magazine spread for Applied Arts based on the essay for graphic designers looking to open their own business. We had to create a piece of artwork for the project that was vector based and one of the categories he gave us. I chose symbolism, and my article is based on research and reflection.

Nuit Blanche

Nuit Blanche Tshirt Design
In Pre Press class we were to design a tshirt for the even nuit blanche, we could pick whatever city from whatever country we wanted. I chose New York.

Design Edge

Design Edge Magazine Layout
 So this is a project where we were to design a spread entirely in our own style to showcase our styles. We had free rang. The article is about a design studio in denvur, and i wanted to get that hand craft feel of the studio with my style added. I really enjoy the way it turned out.

History of Graphic Design

History of Graphic Design Volume 2

History of Graphic Design Volume 1
So for this job, it was to take Megg's History of Graphic Design, and create the 6th edition covers for the book. Instead of one whole book for the sixth edition, its two halfs. Volume one being the first 12 chapters, so more of getting to see how graphic design started and the build up to the modern era, and then volume two is the modern era. I used a really contemporary type layout, and i'm actually so happy with these designs.

Magazine Layout

So here, i'm doing extra work for my portfolio, so i did this magazine layout based on AZURE Magazine on my own time. Its based on Frank Gehry who if you dont know check out his architecture work! its amazing!

Ethics and Morals

This is my Type Poster.This one is straight to the point
and easy to get the meaning out of; I like the design, but i find that
its a little lacking to me. But i'm always found of more intricate design.

This one is done in more of my style, i find it eye catching and it keeps your attention
because your trying to figure out exactly what i'm trying to say. 
So this job was to create a poster for the Graphic Design of Canada Code of Ethics  that would entice the first years. So my two designs are pretty different, One done in more of my style and the other done in just type.

So its a New Year

Its a new school year, and we've already been in class for a couple of weeks, so i'm a little behind on this blog, sorry. I didn't do much work over the summer, it was pretty hectic. So far this year, I'll have a bunch of pieces to put up, but all starting next week. Our projects are a little bigger this year, since they are to make up our portfolios so there will be more time inbetween them, but i'm also working on my own stuff so ill have lots to put up this year. I really hope you enjoy the work, its taking awhile but i feel like i'm getting back on track again. So stay updated, because i've got some sick stuff coming up. :)
