[
— � Just as the 18 Fundamental Particles make up everything in the universe, there exists a separate set of particles that make up every design. Each of these particles, no matter how small, cannot function without the remaining particles. For example, the T-Particle, or Typography Particle, cannot perform its vital task of communication without the necessary attributes of the K-Particle [Kerning] and H-Particle [Hierarchy]. Design particles must work together.
OUR
� The massive amount of work that goes into a successful design often goes unseen. Much like the world around us, great designs are subatomic. It’s the things you don’t see that matter most.
[
¬
— � Every design presents a new challenge and it is our job to find a creative combination of particles to develop a functioning system. Whether these bits and pieces represent design elements, ideas or members in a collaborative effort, we strive to discover the correct sequence [or at least come as close as we possibly can] in order to better educate and inspire the world.

APPROACH
— � Choose a typeface and create a promotional book about a topic of interest relating to your chosen typeface. Typography and visuals must be experimental, and must show the unique characteristics of the typeface while explaining the topic.
[
— � Before Earth can no longer sustain human life, mankind must have a permanent evacuation plan. It has been speculated that Earth will be out of its habitable zone long before the Sun enters its red giant phase. It is no longer an issue of “if” we must leave, but “when.” � Terraforming [or “Earth-shaping”] is the plausible concept of altering certain characteristics [such as atmosphere, temperature, or ecology] of a foreign planet or environment in order to make it tolerable for humans. Mars is the closest planet most similar to Earth, and shows obvious signs that it once bred life. � Mercury Text by Hoefler & Frere-Jones was specifically designed to adapt to changing environments. In addition to weights and styles, Mercury uses grades [or levels of thickness] to better adjust to different substrates. Much like humans of the near future, Mercury adapts to its environment and creates a more livable habitat. Red Prime takes you on a journey from Earth to Mars, all while explaining the exact processes necessary for mankind to pioneer the very first permanent colony on Mars.

� Southwest Airlines has a reputation for offering comfortable flights at affordable prices, yet their current branding system does very little to portray these qualities. Above all else, passengers need to feel relaxed and secure when flying, so I developed a brand that would do just that. Utilizing swift curves and a soft color palette, this approach grants the consumer an air of confidence.
— � Traveling by plane is one of the most stressful, chaotic experiences of American life today. Delays, canceled flights and baggage fees make frequent fliers cringe at the very thought of boarding a plane. The amount of effort it takes to get a person from point A to point B invokes an uneasiness which can affect the overall perception of a commercial airline.

� Are you curious enough to dance with the green fairy? —
� Ordinaire Absinthe is the preferred premium beverage of wealthy, upper-class gentlemen. Inspired by vintage French crate labels, the design is elegant yet prominent enough to stand apart on a shelf. The darker green tint of Ordinaire plays on the traditional coloring of known absinthe brands, and adds a layer of mystery.
— � Absinthe began as an all-purpose remedy created by Dr. Pierre Ordinaire, a French doctor living in Couvet, Switzerland, around 1792. This highly alcoholic elixir quickly gained popularity for its addictive psychoactive properties after distilleries began production in 1797. Absinthe was consumed by all social classes, from the bohemian youth to the wealthy bourgeoisie.
[
— � Create a premium brand of spirits. Must appeal to high-end consumer and include a specialty gift box set.

APPROACH
— � Rebrand a Fortune 500 company and create a brand standards guide. Develop a modern look meant to appeal to a wider audience.
[
— � Ever since New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc. was founded in 1906, its sole purpose was to provide quality footwear for serious athletes. Being the only remaining American footwear company to manufacture shoes in the United States, New Balance takes pride in family and restoring the idea of “Made in the USA.” [ PARTICLE COLLISIONS� New Balance primarily exists in the shadow of industry giants, yet their involvement with major sports teams and sponsors would suggest otherwise. The gap between athlete and everyday wearer is quite large and New Balance struggles in trying to advertise their diverse array of products. In an effort to reach a wider audience, I have created a brand that reflects the true athletic nature of its target audience. The new face of New Balance is the young, ambitious athlete. � Dramatic, black and white photography combined with splashes of bright color create an intense mood. The new logo is fast, bold and modern enough to compete with current athletic brands.

GOUDY PROXIMA
� In recent years, mezcal has gained popularity in American bars and college environments. More and more young people have developed a curiosity towards mezcal and the idea of eating the famous worm. Scorpion takes it a step further, however, by including a real scorpion in every bottle, because worms are for wimps. This “tough guy” attitude inspired the new look of Scorpion and made for a design bold enough to justify the actual scorpion.
— � Scorpion Mezcal is made in Oaxaca, Mexico and imported into the United States. It is handmade in small batches using a 400 year old recipe and rested in oak barrels for up to seven years. Unlike tequila, mezcal is a stronger alcohol with an acquired taste. In Mexican culture, mezcal is reserved specifically for special occasions and enjoyed primarily by older gentlemen.
[
— � Redesign a brand of spirits and create an evolutionary and revolutionary design. The evolutionary design must improve upon the current brand while satisfying loyal buyers. The revolutionary design must appeal to a high-end client.

APPROACH
— � Create a new company and develop a brand identity system. Company must be innovative and offer a unique type of service or product.
[
— � Technology is getting faster and faster every day, yet we still crave instant satisfaction on the go. Today’s devices lack the speed we need in terms of sharing and switching from one device to the next. The future isn’t larger or faster hard drives, but rather replacing the need for hard drive storage. � Hello World is a communications company with an interest in society and social interaction. With Hello, all information is entirely stored on the cloud—eliminating the need for storage space. Imagine being able to access or share any file from anywhere on any device at any time. There is no need for discs, cards, memory or wires—everything exists on the cloud. Lose your phone? No problem. All your text messages, voicemails, photos, contacts, emails and videos are automatically saved to the cloud—nothing is stored on your device.

APPROACH
— � Create an event based on a topic of interest and design a promotional book. Typography and visuals must be experimental.
[
— � Today, 1 out of every 200 Americans is living without a limb. The current solution for amputees of merely attaching hollow, functionless limbs is now obsolete with the recent advancements in robotic prosthesis. In order for a robotic arm or leg to work properly, it must integrate several components into the body’s natural function. � The concept of actually incorporating the human body and its natural functions into an artificial prosthetic device allows the user to obtain mobility and sensoral stimulation that previous devices could never offer. Robotic hands, arms, legs, feet and joints have taken inspiration from sci-fi thrillers and transformed today’s amputees into living cyborgs. This long-awaited marriage of man and machine has influenced doctors and engineers to focus on future developments in order to rejuvenate the quality of life of those suffering from amputation. � Reboot is an informational piece written for doctors, scientists, engineers and anyone interested in learning about robotic integration. The human body is a fascinating vessel waiting to be tampered with and modified. We must reboot the human condition.

� Today, the game of Yahtzee is rather overlooked and easily ignored on shelves due to its overly commercial design. With board games losing children’s attention to mobile devices, I felt it necessary to create a collector series edition of Yahtzee for long time fans of the game. Designed in a nautical fashion, the new Yahtzee pulls inspiration from vintage yachts and boating expeditions.
— � Yahtzee was invented in 1954 by an anonymous Canadian couple, who called it “The Yacht Game” because they played it on their yacht with their close friends. The simple but addictive dice game soon gained popularity through word of mouth and Milton Bradley saw an opportunity to mass produce this family-friendly game.

MISSION
— � Working closely with a group, create a retail store designed for a specific market. Store must contain several departments each with their own product lines and \ or services.
[
BACKGROUND
— � Urban lifestyle merchandising is our business and our passion. District’s goal is to build a strong emotional bond with its customers. To do this we must build lifestyle environments that appeal emotionally, and offer fashionable urban products on a timely basis. Our customers are the reason and inspiration for everything we do.
[ [ PARTICLE STRUCTURES— � District is inspired and compelled to design a welcoming and unique shopping experience for a younger generation. We feel most of the large department stores have lost touch with the younger generation, and also with what they need to survive and thrive in a bustling and compact urban environment. Spending a little more for quality items made to last is better for the urban consumer and the environment, and this is one of the primary goals of District SF.

� One-of-a-kind [but mass marketable] designs for an urban lifestyle. —
— � District is geared toward men and women, from ages 20 and up, living in urban environments with an average yearly income of $15,000 to $50,000. The focus is on singles and couples [rather than families] who are renters [most likely living in apartments].
[
— � To create an original shopping location where urban dwellers can find one-of-a-kind design household items and apparel that are not made to be thrown away, but rather made with quality materials designed to last. Unlike upscale department stores which are dying out and cater toward a more upscale clientele through design and products, and sprawling malls or shopping centers which gear their design and products to the suburban family lifestyle, District will give the Millenial generation of city dwellers a brand new and much needed experience which will encompass and provide for all aspects of life. Both design and product will be modern and fresh, but also raw and classic, bringing the new generation the best of both worlds, always keeping quality and sustainability in mind while providing essential products for a complete life and experience.
[
� Currently, District is comprised of seven [7] departments, each with their own line and brand: Apartment 24 [Home], Citizen [Apparel], Vim & Vigor [Health & Wellness], Quill [Home Office], Escape [Urban Outdoors], Companion [Pets], and Impression [Entertaining].
� District stores carry clothing, shoes, jewelry, health and wellness products, bedding, kitchen supplies, urban sporting goods and home office supplies. They also carry seasonal merchandise such as small patio furniture, entertaining products and decorations during the summer. Its marketing technique is more about selling a lifestyle rather than just everyday products.
— � District is a chain of retail stores about 30,000 to 45,000 square feet that sell men’s and women’s apparel and accessories, home and office furnishings, imitation found objects, an array of personal care products, goods for the urban outdoors-lover, and gifts and functional artisan items.

[
— � Apartment 24 is the home department of District. This line is designed to cater to those who live in a cramped city apartment by offering products that take up little space [such as folding chairs and dinner tables]. The warm rustic style of these products could make any cold studio apartment feel like home. For the young city dweller with minimal space, Apartment 24 by District.

— � Companion is the pet department of District. This line is designed to cater to loving pet owners. It has been said that there are more dogs and cats in the city than there are children, which seems to be very true. Small dogs are just as much a fashion statement as a designer pea coat, and making sure your pet has all the necessary accessories is a vital part of living the fast life. Throw your dog a bone and button his collar, Companion by District.

APPROACH
— � A company cannot be successful without a strong brand. The mark must represent everything that a company is and isn’t, all while being modern and relevant to the market.
[
¬
— � A logo begins as a sketch [or several hundred to be more realistic] which slowly develops into an idea. The concept of designing a single logo made to encompass the entirety of a brand is almost ridiculous when you sit down and think about it, but as designers this is a challenge we must face and ultimately conquer. � Mark your territory. —
