Print series collaboration with
Bright Bright Great
's type foundry,
Avondale Type Co
, to reimagine one of my favorite typefaces in their arsenal: Essay. This is "S".
The process of creating this project was featured on ANIMAL's Artist's notebook series.
This is "R".
...And this is the Avondale Type Co logo, reimagined in fleshy digital wrapping.
Future poster design for
Join The Studio
using the text I designed
and a shot of a sculptural piece made in Spring 2012
One of many experiments with the SR logo variation I designed for this site
and further foray into developing additive pattern overlays.
Scrawl experimentation.
A look into the process I have developed to construct many of the angular text projects;
an admittedly unorthodox process, however one that I find very freeing and expressive
despite the hours needed to construct a cohesive logotype.
Current logotype for
Join The Studio
I designed for the debut of the new site.
Original text and design work for our
Join The Studio
x
33 1/3 Clothing
collab sweaters.
Video recap HERE!
I'll soon be updating the entire site to an attractive-girl display system
wherein my work will only be shown adorning hot models.
Alternate design for the collab, printed on the grey sweaters.
Self-motivated type experiments while thinking about the neurotic lifestyle of the artist and designer.
Definitely more to come.
Digital collage experiment using halftoned scans of an ink piece used as a background.
Another variation on the collage and text experiment.
Typography design for Chicago EDM dance label
Kompute Musik
Additional logo work for
Kompute Musik.
Practice design work for
Kompute Musik,
possible use for an album cover or flyer
but more likely strictly an aesthetic exercise to help develop Kompute's design style.
Another practice design for Kompute utilizing composite scans of "masks" I have made.
Further design practice for Kompute which has yet to be used, but will likely be worked into a future project.
Logo/type work for one of the most influential Chicago turntablist crews in the city,
Cutz on Cuts
Design for one of
Join The Studio
's best selling shirts, the "Style + Substance" tee.
Printed with a white discharge base and then a translucent blue layer.
Variation on the previous "Style + Substance" type work;
a direction I haven't visited since but plan to explore in the future.
The aforementioned sticker design for
Join The Studio
,
now completely sold out or slapped up on walls in Chicago, Austin, LA, Taipei, and beyond.
