A. Art of Lingering
Somewhere along the line, the presence of black in a fixed white page became really important to me.

IDENTIFIED PROBLEM
This project began as a way for me to question and challenge the conventional role of graphic design as a fleeting, commercial tool by investigating its potential to represent and manipulate time.

Inspired by the notion of lingering and how experiences extend beyond the moment, existing between presence, absence, and incompleteness.

1.  Speculative Display Project
Elit Dolor
Tempor Incididut, 1989
Magna: Eiusmod Ullamcor
Sed Qui Consequatur, Adipiscing.


BRIEF
Design an in-store display for a beauty product that improves accessibility for color-blind shoppers.

SOLUTION
Taking inspiration from the effortless glide of the Yves Saint Laurent lip oil, the display seeks to embody YSL as more than a brand—it is a lifestyle. It captures the essence of bold confidence and luxury empowering anyone that uses the product through  a  tactile experience framed in the silohoutte and engraved text.

1. SYNK
PROBLEM

Over 90% of the people forget their dreams upon waking up, and often struggle to translate them into something tangible. For creatives, this represents a missed opportunity to capture inspiration from a source of personal meaning.

Since this time is already spent while dreaming in a  semi-conscious state, why not make it purposeful?

SOLUTION

A daily creative outlet designed to gener a color palette daily based on your dreams, making it easy to capture and share  with friends and creatives.

Save, Share, Comment and Like.

1. Retail Concept Store
PROBLEM
Bobbi Brown seeks to develop a new flagship experiential destination seeking to develop a retail concept that enables self discovery . A relaxing atmosphere to slow her down, keep her in-store longer.

Bobbi Brown changed the face of beauty. With a powerful message to Be Who You Are and a natural look to match, we were the first to offer makeup for all women in a time when it was made for few.

SOLUTION
The store mirrors the intimacy of a walk-in closet, where customers can explore, learn, and immerse themselves in discovery- much like opening a beautifully designed makeup box.

Upon entrance, customers can interact with artists, browse through limited edition products as well as head into the private make-up studio.

Dynamic. Modular. Rooted in the brand’s downtown New York elegance.
