To celebrate the anniversary of Caroline Polachek's last album, Desire, I Want To Turn Into You, there was a rollout for the deluxe version as well as new merchandise, including this calendar.
I worked closely with the lead designer, designing the layout of the calendar and formatting it with images they provided for me. They also provided me typefaces that were used in the original merchandise. We researched varying calendars throughout history, making it a point to use iconography to highlight holidays and special dates, and to scatter tracks throughout as well.

A website prototype for the music artist Dean Blunt, inspired by the early 2000s and original iTunes directory system. Showcasing his discography, and serving as place for communication and connection between fans.
wanted to create a digital space that fans could call their own, while also have a proper discography of his work. Dean Blunt is an artist who is quite anonymous, having multiple aliases and not being active on social media. I wanted to honor that, as those behaviors are often reflected in his fans and something that makes them feel exclusive for listening to him. I added a login option, as well as a user profile. The layout for the data organization was heavily inspired by the original iTunes formatting, and the user profile by early Internet age forums and MySpace, to feel timeless.

10x6.5in, 32 pages
3x3in, 16 pages (minizine)
This zine talks about the history of the supercontinent Pangaea, what came before it and how it separated, juxtaposing with emotional and humanistic definitions of “home”. It features a minizine at the end that gives answers to the question “What is home to you?”
For this zine, I included my own photography from visiting my homeland, as well as found footage and AI generated imagery that felt like "almost" home. This zine aims to make you question your surroundings and your history, starting off uncomfortable and cold. It starts off with a highly scientific article talking of Pangaea, but then ends with a writing from Alain de Botton discussing the idea of home. I also conducted my own research and asked peers what home means to them, including a minizine of their answers at the end. This zine is a journey of acceptance, and by the end you aren't questioning how are what. Instead, you've come to terms with your evergreen home.

A logo for an independent photographer, specializing in car photography.
My goal was to create something that was modern, dynamic, and not too busy. Referencing the World of Logotypes: Volume One, I was inspired to play with letterforms and shapes. I combined the first and last letters of the brand's name, Baggen. I also referenced car logos to stay true to the brand, which resulted in me adding sharp serifs and contrasting strokes for sleekness and movement.
