Respite

What will you be doing in five years? This is the question we answered in our second project of senior year.

Insomnia has been a huge part of my life, and my dream (no pun intended) is that in five years, I will be able to sleep through the night. I created a space that was optimal for sleep according to physiological and psychological factors. It includes chromatherapy, sound therapy, meditation techniques, and advice from various doctors and other insomniacs.

Operation Oracle

First assignment of senior year! Were were told to choose a subculture and identify their ideology, then create a methodology based on those parameters and design for or about the subculture. I chose Anonymous, a group based on the internet. I created a campaign for Anonymous called "Operation Oracle," which reacted to the fact-checking culture following the 2012 GOP Convention. To see the full campaign, visit Operation Oracle on my website.

At my presentation, I handed out stickers. As of a semester later, this is still in the room:

Stress Board Fall 2012

Same project as last semester. This time around I used photography that looked like the actual board. If you look carefully you can see where someone decided to draw on my poster! The wonderful librarians approved the drawing of the library logo as well.

Halloween at Mugar

Done with the amazing illustrations of Ava Devoe. Super fun to do some cheesy Rocky Horror-style type!

Meet Your Friends at the Library

To advertise the fiction offerings at Mugar Library, I illustrated five characters and incorporated them into a poster series.

The following are the 13x19" variations.

The following are the digital display variations.

Below are the illustrations by themselves.

Comm Ave Fair 2012

For Comm Ave Fair at BU, I created T-shirts for Mugar Library, as well as LIFESIZE 6'x3' Emily Dickinson and William Shakespeare! We also had mini golf. I made posters for all the booths as well, as well as a coloring book, and the individual obstacles for the mini golf (Mount Doom and the hat from A Clockwork Orange). (It was a busy few weeks!)

To see Emily and Will in action, check out the blog post our team made about them.

Right Outside The City

A book written by myself, about the concept of family and home, and what it means to belong. Hand bound.

Bookmaking (Various)

Among stitches I know are: pamphlet, simple stab binding, various Japanese bindings, Coptic, herringbone and hardcover.

The Stress Board

Made for finals period at Mugar Library, this poster advertised a "Stress Board" in the Common area of the library.

A Chorus of Words

A long 10-week self-portrait through design, this project started as a "Catalog of Influences" but quickly grew to an exploration of how I express voices in typography.

Also accompanied by a hypothetical app:
