uller Center Bike AdventureJersey, t-shirt, Brochure & PosterThe Fuller Center for HousingF

Objective:The Bike Adventure

raises awareness and

funds for the Fuller

Center by biking

across the country,

building houses and

speaking at churches.

Solution:

The riders requested

maximum visibility so I

used orange for the base

color of the jersey. A

map on the back helps

the riders explain the trip

during presentations.

The URL is easily visible

when in a riding position.

The tee is a simplified

version of the jersey

design for builds.

The brochure lays out

ways to get involved.

Because the intendedaudience is younger,

I used a slicker, more

energetic look than

in other Fuller Center

materials.

This customizeable

poster was placed in

churches and bike shops

before the event.

Solution:

The previous version

was similar but hadbeen livetraced from a

Photoshopped image

and was too garbled

to use. I built this from

scratch referencing

photos of bike gears.

Based on the Fuller

Center logo, I focused on

clean angles, proportions

and implied edges.

Hand-drawn character,

inked in illustrator for

screen-printing.

lobal Buildersbrochure & t-shirtThe Fuller Center for HousingG

Objective:Excite readers to sign

up for a Global Builders

trip to one of the

Fuller Centers partner

locations. Promote

countries from diverse

world regions equally.

Solution:

I created a world map

showing all partner

locations and graphed

the cost and duration of

trips to several countries.

I used stylistic referencesto vintage travel posters

and postcards for a

light, fun look. I did a

lot of enhancement on

many of the photos

(the Nigeria photo for

example) since we had

very few shots from

some of the locations

that had to be featured.

eb Slideswebsite componentThe Fuller Center for HousingW Objective:Create a set of graphicsfor a rotating display on

the Fuller Center home

page. Each links through

to a different page or

article. Four to ve are

cycling at any one time.

Solution:

I set up a Photoshop

template with a layout

for a photo, text and

a background. I used

layer effects to make

appearances that I

can edit very quickly

and efciently. I used

a simple color coding

(brown for merchandise,

blue for Global Builders,etc.) So that there would

always be an eye-

catching variety of color

from one slide to the

next. I found a method to

overlay textures without

time-consuming masking

so that I can quickly

create slides for new

stories on short notice.

tationary Conceptsproposed redesignThe Fuller Center for HousingS

Objective:Redesign the Fuller

Center stationary to an

attractive, inviting system.

Solution:

I created a set of vector

drawings of houses and

churches that could be

exibly combined to form

skylines in any space

desired. Flat elds of blueand white keep the look

clean and uncluttered.

I made a circular version

of the Fuller Center logo

and used it as a stamp

and as a watermark. A

dark blue ribbon wraps

around forms to contain

important information.

afe Campesino Advertisementscoffee menu, signage & bin cardsCafe CampesinoC

Objective:Help customers make

an informed decision

from the numerous

coffee blends available.

Highlight the cafes

commitment to high-

quality, fair-trade,

organic coffee. Show the

international origins of

the various coffees.

Solution:

On the menu card I used

simple icons to explain

the different roasts and

blends. I edited down the

descriptions to make it

easier to pick from the

large selection.

For this 8x30 sign I used

bold tropical colors to

draw attention to the three

keywords of the cafe.

This card, for

supermarket coffee

bins, briey describes

the blend and the

cooperative where itwas grown, giving the

customer a connection

to it. A globe highlights

the source location. I built

this into a Photoshop

template with a pack

of customized maps so

that the cafe could plug

in their own info for new

blends in the future

Objective:Koinonia is a Christian

community running a

sustainable farm.

Create a self-mailing

catalog for an older

audience, promoting the

hand-made quality of the

goods and in character

with the farms values.

Solution:

I worked with the farms

interns to arrange and

take hundreds of product

photos. I created adove icon based on

the farms old logo to

use for pagination and

created several vector

patterns based on quilts

for banners. I chose type

and laid out the pages

with an emphasis on

readability and bright,

friendly colors.

Koinonia(Greek forloving community) was founded in 1942to be a demonstration plot fortheKingdomof God,

sharing resources,work, and prayermuch like the example of earlyChristians in the Book of Acts.

Ourmost deeplyheld beliefs are drawn fromJesus' teachingspeacemaking,radical sharing,and brother/sisterhood among

people.In the 1950s and 60s,Koinoniawas ercelyreviled bymany forour racial integration and pacistbeliefs.Enduring

violence and rejection,even fromlocal churches,Koinoniasur vived onlybyGod's faithful protection.Ourmail-orderpecan

business broughtus through years of local boycotts,and itremains ourmain source of earned income.

Koinoniais alsoa haven of down-to-earth theology.Founding memberClarence Jordan was afarmer and aGreek scholar.

He penned the Cotton PatchVersion intoSouth Georgiavernacular,seeking toplace scripture in the 'here and now' of

his day.His books and livelysermons are still beloved and well-known today.

Ourlife of service has taken various forms through the years.In the earlydays, we extended friendship toour neighbors,

mostlyBlack sharecroppers and tenantfarmers. Habitat forHumanitywas born here in 1968to help neighbors aord

decent,simple homes.Our currentworks include sustainable gardening and ecology,local ministries,educational oerings

and,as always, welcoming people towalk with us on this journey.Belowis alist of ways youcan become partof the story!

o dancingdigital poster & t-shirtGoshen Community Contra DancingG

Objective:

Create a slide for displayon advertising at-

screens in local cafes.

Must be memorable, but

read fast because the

display cycles relatively

quickly between ads.

Create a t-shirt design

that captures the fun and

energy of contra dancing.

A

B

Solution:

Variation in color,

typography and size

emphasize the important

text above decoration

that blends into the

background texture.

I drew a scene showing a

group of diverse people

dancing together in a

circle. This drawing wentthrough many iterations

before I settled on this

style and view. I used

different tones of just

two ink colors to keep

printing costs low while

helping to distinguish

one gure from another. I

included enough detail to

reward a longer viewing.

mbassador Fine Clothierslogo & stationaryclass: Type, The LetterA

Objective:Given a word at random,

imagine a company

identity (in this case a

ne menswear shop) and

design a suitable word-

mark. Next extend the

logo into a system

of stationary.

Solution:

I chose a hybrid of

black-letter and san-

serif roman forms for

their visual similaritiesto imagery found in

formal-wear such

as cuff links, pleats

and wing tip shoes.

I referenced several

different typefaces while

designing the custom

letter forms in this mark

with an emphasis on

rhythm and symmetry.

igawatt Candy Powderpackage designclass: package designG

Objective:Create a container that

captures the essence of

one concept; in this case

speed. Then, design its

markings to present a

theoretical product.

Solution:

I referenced hood

ornaments and high

speed vehicles to get

ideas for the shape and

contours of the package.

Opposing folds give

aggressive shape to

the surfaces and a ap

underneath, designed

to look like a jet intake

scoop, lifts the nose of

the container up at an

angle like an aircraft

taking off.

I designed the logo and

pattern of markings toaccentuate the impact of

the containers contours.

The logo also had to be

readable at a small size

because the package

lacked large display

surfaces. Since this

was to hold a food

product, I adhered a

foil pouch inside.


12/13

slandiaboard gameclass: collaborative processesI

Objective:Work in a group of ve

to create a board-game

from concept to nished,

packaged product.

Solution:

We based our strategy

game on the metaphor

of traveling by ship

to different islands

collecting goods. We

used a magnetic board

with hexagonal tiles to

create a game-space

thats different every time

you play and evolves as

the game progresses.

We wanted to keep the

visuals from getting toopirate-centered, so we

used visual references

to ancient Greek sea

voyages as well. My main

role in the group was

drawing all the line-art.

We were invited to present

Islandia in the National

Gaming Convention in

Las Angeles.
