THE AFRICAN ROOTS OF SWISS DESIGN 2024
A poster designed to draw attention towards an article written about the African roots embedded within Swiss design. The article included conversations about the Golden Ratio, Fibonacci sequence, and African culture. The poster focused in on the technical and mathematical elements of the Swiss design, and was made using the golden rectangle. The color palette used was simple, but inspired by the colors of African culture.

ADINKRA BROCHURE 2024
A small double-sided brochure hand-drawn and designed to quickly inform an audience about African Adinkra symbols, specifically, the Sankofa symbol. The challenge was to create something with such detail and flow, that also still held a lot of information, on a very small scale. The patterns and designs were made in Adobe Illustrator while the rest of the brochure was curated in Adobe InDesign, and later printed out and folded precisely.
TYPE SPECIMEN PAGE 2024
A type specimen page curated in Adobe InDesign to showcase a font, P22 Mackinac, in a visually pleasing manner. The four black squares feature compositions made up of various characters of the font to showcase its well crafted design. The text was also justified and lined up to create a clear and cohesive work.
THE MINI-MONI AD 2023
A advertising poster for an invention called the Mini-Moni, a device that attaches to one’s phone to help monitor vitals, check temperature, sickness tests, and more. This monitor was designed to benefit those living with chronic illnesses, those who are prone to sicknesses, and elderly patients. The poster was created in Adobe Illustrator and was my first experience with digital platforms. The color scheme was picked with respect to colors typically seen around medical facilities - red and blue.
THREE FISH 2025
A digital black and white drawing of three fish, a mahi mahi, stripped bass, and a peacock bass. This drawing was created using Adobe Illustrator and was later laser engraved onto a lighter as a gift.
