ONE MAGAZINE

The idea of making print interactive inspired the concept for One Magazine, a monthly journal that encourages spontaneous one day adventures.

NYPL SERIES

This series of posters is intended to draw attention to the infinite amenities the New York Public Library has to offer.

ENLIGHTEN ME: aimed towards the residents of New York City who have a scholarly spirit. This poster features important thinkers of the enlightenment period, some offering valuable quotes—but only to those who put effort into reading them. The NYPL is an amazing open source of knowledge that is accessible to anyone who brings their curiosity.

LECTURE SERIES: this lecture series features speakers that have a deeper connection with the library. The speeches cover both the structural and romantic details the average person may overlook. I want the audience to understand that this thing we call a library is a balance of the two, and that it is indeed as much of an art as it is an information system.

THE FRIENDS BOOKSHELF: the third of the series introduces a program at the NYPL, The Friends Bookshelf. After donating to the library, you may dedicate a book that has motivated or inspired you to succeed. Available on the NYPL site is a list of the donations along with personal explanations.Using the same palette as the other two posters in the series, I created this abstract narrative.

TOWN IN THE WOODS

This poster is an experiment in layering a generous amount of diverse information.

I chose to represent Bushwick because of it’s intense relation to layering in both the history & appearance. I aimed to especially connect the poster to the neighborhood so that it may seem intimidating at first but if you look around you may find some rewarding surprises.

As residents of NYC, we wouldn’t get very far without the MTA. Unfortunately, much like using the subway on a Sunday, on the MTA site, it is hard to get anywhere quickly.

My goal for mta.info was to not only create a more efficent structure and navigation, but to appeal to the user’s needs in order to become an essential everyday tool.

THE PIGEON

The Pigeon is a student-run publication born on the campus of St. Joseph's College. The logo and branding is bold yet friendly.

It can be spotted anywhere on campus and be easily recognized as The Pigeon. The brand is cultured, loud, and edgy—inspired totally by the spirit of independence and empowerment

MORGAN LIBRARY

Originally this content was gathered for research purposes. By taking a unique approach that plays off of selling a library, I transformed common data into fun approachable infographs.

NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDES

The Neighborhood Guide is a series intended to highlight editorial features that connect Flavorpill readers to brands they may enjoy.

When approached with the task to create and build a template for this new product my goal was to offer image-heavy content, something that isn't found on Flavorpill's other text dominant sites.

The Havaianas Guides are the initial launch of this product that has become a favorite for both clients and the FP sales team.

W'BURG WATERFRONT

The objective for this 5-story parking garage at the Williamsburg Waterfront was to create a logical scale of hierarchy throughout the floors, pay homage to the Willamsburg neighborhood, graphically create five memorable environments, and create a wayfinding system to help visitors find their car.

Since this parking garage marks the rapid gentrification of Williamsburg, an area familiar to change, it is difficult to conceive of an idea that will not become outdated in as early as 5 years.

Instead of running from this conflict, I confronted it by creating a system that revolves around a portrait of the neighborhood in which this particular gentrification project was born. The era of artists in Williamsburg is coming to an end. This project embraces this change, yet preserves the creative spirit that led to the existing and future amenities that are to fill the streets of the 'burg in the years to come.

All images are to be painted as an homage to the artistic community that has grown and brought life into the Williamsburg culture.

The traditional elevator button system will be accompanied by a touchscreen that i set to reveal the floor that you are on, the floor the elevator is on, and explore the appearance and themes of the other floors for the user to compare and reassure.
