INTRODUCTION A lot of people might see design as gathering information, making decisions and composition.

However, when you look at the design more closely, you will realize that it’s more than that.

Design is about visually communicating a concept or idea in a unique way. As a designer, it is also important to be able to look at a problem from all sides, at different angles and perspectives, but still maintaining the story and main message. Every design has a specific purpose, and nothing is arbitrary. Being a designer, I have learned to look at things more closely and in many different ways. I learned that every tiny detail in a design has its own purpose.

objective

overview

solution

To design a three day conference about a pertinent issue facing the selected topic.

The project consists of designing a 48-page experimental book that addresses the topic of the conference, promotional poster, kinetic typographic video and direct mail piece.

I selected ‘Suspended Animation’ as my topic of the conference. Suspended animation is when a body is put into a state of indefinite preservation.

Scientists have experimented with it on animals.

Very low amount of hydrogen sulfide is used to bond to oxygen receptors, putting the animals into a state of suspended animation. Replacing the need for oxygen allows the animal to lower its metabolic rates to an extremely low level, but once the hydrogen sulfide is removed, the animal recovers without any side effects. The conference will educate the audience about suspended animation and how it could be useful in saving people’s lives.

Suspended animation is like extended sleep and with it a missing period of time. But in that time, a cure may have been discovered to save the patient. Like Rumpelstiltskin, the patient wakes to a new world filled with possibility.

White gap, therefore, is introduced as a design element to represent the concept of pausing and resuming during the suspended animation.

In addition, the fresh color palette and scientific looking typefaces are carefully chosen to help enhance the message and concept of the H 2 S conference.

DESIGNERS

THREE 18”x 24” POSTERS

objective

overview

solution

To design a series of three posters to promote the Pantone Color Matching System, using the maximum of four colors in each poster. In addition, black could not be used, even with type. The concept is open to interpretation as long as it highlights each Pantone Color Palette used in the posters.

Love and relationships take work, commitment, and a willingness to adapt and change. Love often grows and changes. This is because human nature between the genders is different.

They think differently, feel differently and react differently to even the same subject matter. Hence, good communication is a fundamental part of a healthy relationship. When a couple stops communicating well, they stop relating well. This often results in conflict and misunderstanding and therefore, each confrontation may widen the emotional distance and the relationship can irreparably deteriorate.

Inspired by the Ugly Truth movie and its poster, each Pantone poster represents a different stage of a relationship; the beginning, the middle and the end. Different perspectives between males and females in the relationship are also added in each of the stages to communicate the different thinking between the genders and how this thinking affects the relationship emotionally. The color palette becomes cooler as the relationship digresses.

objective

overview

solution

To create a brand new image, packaging structure and graphic application for a line of pharmaceutical products between eight to ten items.

With the growing number of baby-boomers heading for retirement and the elderly living longer, the challenge is to create a line of pharmaceutical products for people who suffer diseases related to aging. I focused on a common disease of most women, Osteoporosis. It is a condition characterized by a decrease in the density of bones, decreasing their strength and increasing their fragility. Hence, Osteoporosis literally leads to abnormally porous bones that compress, like a sponge. This disorder of the skeleton weakens the bones and results in frequent fractures.

The front label contains a dotted pattern background that is only visible on close inspection. This is a visual metaphor for the hidden nature of Osteoporosis which is the disease that doesn’t show symptoms until it becomes severe. The design also incorporates building blocks of color background to represent the idea of promoting strong and healthy bones.

The most advanced methods are used to ensure that every grade of honey packed under the Sue Bee label is the finest available anywhere.

Honey’s flavor depends on which flowers the bees are on, hence, the background label design features an abstract illustration of the flower to represent its own distinct flavor.

A fresh color palette is coordinated with each flavor. This helps guide the customers to the flavor they are looking for. In addition, the package is in the shape of hexagon, which is usually associated with bees and honey.

PEDESTRIAN OF ALL AGES

31” BY 62” BANNER

objective

overview

solution

To create 31” by 62” banners for the Urban Forest Project using the form of, or metaphor for, the tree to make a powerful visual statement about the environment.

The project is a series of unprecedented outdoor exhibitions, taking root in cities around the world. This unique environmental public arts and educational initiative calls on artists, designers as well as students in each location to employ the idea or form of the tree to make a powerful visual statement on banners that are displayed throughout the community. The tree is a metaphor for sustainability and, in that spirit the banners at the close of each exhibition are recycled into totebags and auctioned off to raise money for local environmental and urban forestry initiatives. The program can easily be adapted to address a number of green, educational and creative initiatives in a variety of ways to shape a project that is unique and expressive of the local community.

First concept: even though our city has changed drastically from the past, in that we are now surrounded by concrete buildings and fewer trees, trees are still part of our world and are critical to the eco balance of life. I created a tree in a graffiti style to portray the concept that trees are part of our city. I used the tagline ‘xoxo’ to express in a whimsical manner our love of trees and nature.

Second concept: trees serve as shelter and also maintain a fragile eco-balance we live in.

Umbrellas are usually associated with the idea of protection since they shelter us from heavy rain and sunshine. Therefore, the umbrella handle is combined with the tree in the design to represent the concept that trees help to protect our earth.

I have come up with two different concepts for the banner. The first concept represents the idea that there is always a place for trees in our city. The second concept is to represent the idea that trees act to protect our planet.

objective

overview

solution

To create a packaging system for a new line of household appliances for an existing company that is not associated with home décor and appliances. The packaging design should match the brand’s identity. In addition, this new line of household appliances could help broaden the company’s brand recognition to a wider target audience.

In 1974, LeSportsac introduced a collection of fold-in-a-pouch parachute nylon bags and luggage. Since then, LeSportsac has become an American icon and a leading manufacturer of functional and chic handbags sold in over twenty countries around the world. The product line is a complete range of handbags, backpacks travel bags, totes, messenger bags, attachés and accessories. The Collection’s trademarks have sporty American styling, a wide color and print assortment and lightweight functionality with high performance fabrics and hardware.

LeSportsac’s target audience is teenage girls.

The company is well-known for its bold and colorful patterns. The products of its household line are carefully selected to suit its audiences youthful and fun lifestyle. The company selected colorful, modern and fun products that are appealing to teenagers, such as a camera, table lamp, pillow, wall clock and study chair. In addition, a bold graphic pattern unique to each products is incorporated into the design to maintain Lesportsac’s aesthetic.

objective

overview

solution

To design a paper promotion package for a line of paper by an existing paper company.

The promotion includes a 48-page promotional book, swatch cards, swatch container, poster and website. The subject matter is open for selection, but it must be derived from unique aspects of the products, such as its name, colors and textures.

I chose Particles Paper from Curious Collection.

It is a premium recycled paper filled with little bits of flecks and sprinkles of white, gold and silver. Curious Particles offer the look and feel of handmade paper with the advantages of a machine-produced sheet.

The book features different stages of my life and how the pieces of my past helped me to become who I am today. Broken type and pieces of images are incorporated to emphasize the ‘Particles’ concept.

I developed my concept directly from the name of the paper as well as its main characteristics.

Our life is full of choices and each choice or each stage of our life is a particle of a whole. There are times that we cannot explain the reason for the decisions we have made. However, what is more important than the cause is the ability to accept that we, as human beings, make mistakes.

No one is perfect and everybody needs to live and learn from their past. The whole point is to remember and recall from each experience and be thankful to the past for it helps to fulfill the future.

objective

overview

solution

In this group project, the assignment was to create a subsidiary store to target called, “Aero” that would compete with William-Sonoma and Crate & Barrel while still maintaining Target’s promise to its customers. The goal of the project is to develop the brand names, create brand identities and packaging for products in the store as well as understand the difference between the terms private brands, branded house and house of brands.

Target is a shopping destination that delivers outstanding value, continuous innovation and an exceptional guest experience by consistently fulfilling their ‘Expect More. Pay Less’ brand promise. Expect more of everything. More great design, more choices and more designer-created items that customers won’t find anywhere else or for less money. Target is always concerned about their customers and responding to the customers’ wants and needs, from the layout of the stores to the products sold in the stores.

The team focused on taking the Target mantra of dedicating themselves to good design and applied it to a higher price point store and a more sophisticated audience. We wanted Aero to be a shopping destination that offers customers both services and products which focuses on the needs of modern consumers: efficiency of time, space, and materials, as well as reliable and high-quality products. Aero’s brand promise, “Expect More From Life” is developed from the Target’s existing motto, “Expect More. Pay Less.”

Therefore, customers can trust that they will be receiving the same satisfactory experience that they have had with Target. Aero store does not only consist of the Aero brand but also house of brands and branded house of food, house care and bakery line.

The project is featured by Michael Osborne in the Dieline/HOW LIVE Conference 2011 in Chicago.

objective

overview

solution

To design a visual and powerful identity that reflects and communicates the spirit of companies, groups and individuals.

Logos are graphic representations or symbols that are uniquely designed to represent the company. The logo is an integral part of a company’s brand strategy. Therefore, each logo has its own story and meaning to help connect the brand with its customers.

This section is a collection of some of the logos I created throughout the course of my education. They are presented in both black and white and in color in order to show the logos’ versatility. I conducted extensive research about each subject’s identity to be able to develop a strong logo that represents each specific client.

THANK YOU my family

my friends

my instructor

This has been a long but wonderful journey and I would not have been able to do it without the support from my dearest family. Thank you for always being there for me even though we live in different parts of the world. I very much appreciate you constantly reminding me to take care of myself and my health. A really special thanks to my sister, May, who has stayed with me throughout the whole journey, being so supportive and tolerating my frustration during my finals. I really love you all.

My schoolmates, especially Karin and Ploy.

Thank you for your inspiring ideas and never ending support for the past years. Without you, I would not have made it this far.

Last but not least, many thanks to all the supportive Academy of Art University instructors who taught and inspired me: Mary Scott, Audrey Donaldson, Scot Crisp, Thomas McNulty, Ariel Grey, Tom Sieu, Hedgpeth Todd, Megumi Kiyama, Michael Osborne, Christine George, Scott Rankin, Hunter Wimmer.

My friends, especially the in2ant0, Petch, Eung, Anan, View, Pry, P’tem, P’film, T, P’Aim. Thank you for always standing by me during my challenging times. Your friendship, the laughter and tears we shared has made my four years in San Francisco such a wonderful experience that I’ll never forget.
