David Carson
I really love the way David Carson uses text in his designs. I also really enjoy the way he combines images, like in the one below, to make very interesting juxtapositions.
I love the way Nicolas and Sandra make fashion drawings and then add graphic elements in the computer. I have always been very interested in fashion and I love doing portraits, so their collections really inspire me.

Blue Notes & Photos
We decided to collect blue sticky notes and get people we know, sometimes even people we didn’t know, to write about a time when they were feeling blue. We collected as many as we could in the amount of time we had and then posted them anonymously on two large glass doors. We really liked the idea of taking something so personal and making it public.

I did a lot of research on bold typefaces because I like working with typography. I really like drawing/writing my own type.

I was particularly drawn to this design. I really loved how the designer arranged the text, and I tried to use the same aesthetic in my own designs.

Application: BOLD Coffee Shop
While working on my patterns, I created one that reminded me of coffee beans. As I continued my explorations into typography, I really liked one of the effects I created using a stencil I made. I decided to “create� my own modern coffee shop using these two ideas.
Application: BOLD Coffee Shop

I combined parts of both the pattern and the typography and came up with this design for my coffee shop’s logo. The coffee shop’s slogan is “drink BOLD. be BOLD.” Because the whole idea of the coffee shop is to support local artists. BOLD encourages local musicians, painters, writers, any kind of artist to come out and have a show. BOLD encourages local artists to be bold (and drink their BOLD brand coffee, of course!)
drink BOLD. be BOLD. 156
