The NOPA Renter’s Resource Guide to Gardening & Landscaping is the result of hours of researching, surveying and interviewing for my senior research and development class. In addition to the final designs, I also wrote all the copy in the booklet and turned in a huge report.

The site is back up for a webpage I designed last semester. I’m guessing the school shuts the server off during the summer since I was unable to access it at all then. But it’s up now and if you want to check it out just click the image below. Enjoy!

I had the incredible opportunity to do graphic design work for my brother-in-law’s new law firm in Southern California. The work includes a logo, business cards, letterhead & envelopes (which are not featured here), brochure and a full website.
Chris & I teamed up on the website; I designed the look and he programmed it. The colors on the screen shot are off, so take a look at the real thing here: CSNLG.com

Projects for DAI 425, Typography. For this assignment I had to design a book on a subject related to graphic design.
I chose to do a book on mid-century graphic design, specifically on “modern” style. In addition to designing the book, I printed all the pages myself and bound the book at home. The cover was printed at a local print shop.
We also had to design a poster and webpage that corresponded with the subject matter of the book. I decided to focus on the graphic designer Erik Nitsche and an essay written about him by Steven Heller titled “The Reluctant Modernist”. The idea behind the poster was that the MOMA would feature an exhibition and lecture on Erik Nitsche in conjunction with the book.
The webpage features the Heller essay and Nitsche’s work. You can find the essay on Typotheque and Nitsche’s designs on a Flickr page by Bust Bright.
Unfortunately the webpage I designed is down at the moment, so stay tuned for an update. There’s something wrong with the school’s server or something.
