Magazine
GRINS Grins is a lighthearted magazine meant to make people laugh through graphics, typography, images, and writing. The magazine is intended for young adults with busy schedules who need comic relief between their affairs. This particular issue is the “Food Grinning Edition” featuring an article about Kevin Hart’s favorite food obsessions.

Magazine Inspiration
INSPIRED I wanted the magazine to be full of funny content and have the design compliment the hilarity. MAD Magazine was a huge influence on how I wanted people to feel reading it so I took a look at the magazine’s content and design. Another magazine I took inspiration from is Vanity Fair’s Bill Murray issue because they were effective in using the design to compliment Murray’s jokes. I also wanted my color to reflect what people often associate with playful.

Web Design
JAME S DE ANGELIS This is a web design for film maker, James DeAngelis. I designed and coded the web site using Illustrator, Photoshop, HTML, CSS, and Java Script. The site showcases the film maker through pages about him, film work, photos of him, his resume, and a way to contact him. The website is live with the domain: jamesdeangelisfilm.com.
16 // James DeAngelis
Lauren Holmes // 17
Web Design Inspiration
INSPIRED I wanted the website to compliment the film maker, James DeAngelis’ personality. There was a lot about his personality that drew me to the color blue for the website, including California beaches and his favorite light saber color. A look came to mind so I took a look at other websites that had the modern same appeal.

Infographic
SAN FR ANCISCO PARKING TICKET San Francisco is home to the abundantly outrageous parking tickets. Enough to make anyone wonder, exactly how much does San Francisco make from all these tickets and where does it go? This infographic was inspired by the parking tickets of SF and designed to be poster size.

Lauren Holmes // 25
Infographic Inspiration
INSPIRED When you live in San Francisco it is very common that you or someone you know with a car will get a parking ticket frequently. When people around me kept getting tickets it made me question the logistics of San Francisco parking tickets. I felt the best way to show information on tickets was to give it the form of the SF parking ticket.

Title
San Francisco’s Parking Fees by Lauren Holmes
I want to talk about the cities revenue from parking tickets. I want to see how much the city makes off of parking tickets and how it compares to other large cities. I will also look at the different prices of tickets, and where the money the city makes goes to. Then the preventative measures people can take to avoid getting tickets, such as bike riding.

SFMTA’S $130 MILLION INDUSTRY
SFMTA’S $130 MILLION INDUSTRY If you’re a car owner in San Francisco, you’ve likely been brought to tears at least once by a dreaded white envelope under your wiper, or towering hourly parking meter rates. If so, you’ve probably wondered: exactly how much money does the city of San Francisco rake in from these revenue streams every year? For many, the cost of parking in this city seems unreasonably high, but how does it compare to other cities?

Muni Budget Deficit
With citation fees and parking meter rates ballooning every year, it’s no surprise that SF has seen a rise in other modes of tranportation. However, in the long run the outrageous fees may help to beautify the city, reduce pollution, avoid crowding, and help the Muni budget deficit.

Typography
JACKSON SQUARE The Jackson Square font design tells the story of the San Francisco neighborhood, Jackson Square. From the late 1800s as a drinking district to the 21st century as a modern artsy community. The modern serifs build bridges between those times while the curves of the typeface represent the old world brick building windows.
32 // Jackson Square
Lauren Holmes // 33
Typography Inspiration
INSPIRED The architecture of Jackson Square was what drew me to the area and finally led me to the Jackson Square typeface. I used the arch of the brick building windows to create the base of the letter form. The addition of serifs came from the plethora of serif fonts, the old and new, in the area.
34 // Jackson Square
Lauren Holmes // 35
Typography Process
After finding inspiration from the Jackson Square area, I started sketching different typefaces that I thought would describe the area. I then choose a final typeface to create the alphabet from.

Word Map
A WEEK WITH MY MOM This is a typographic word map of a week that my mom came to visit me. We did many fun things including ride a scooter, which is why she is riding one in the word map. The scooter is placed thoughtfully on top of the days she was there. While the rest of the week is reacting to the time together, since it was the most important part of my week.
40 // A Week with My Mom
Lauren Holmes // 41
Word Map Inspiration
INSPIRED My intention was to create a visualization of my week and since it was the time my mom was there I had to think about what we did. I wanted to have the type around the scooter reacting to the movement. I felt the best way to accomplish this was to collage the piece by hand.

Lastly, I brought the scanned final into Photoshop to create more contrast and a cleaner background.

App
SNOOZE STER Snoozester, a quantified self app, tracks users between ages 15-25 who have trouble sleeping to increase their quality and quantity of sleep by looking at their sleeping patterns and daily routines day to day. The differentiating design of Snoozester is its in depth resource to help the user fall asleep.

Lauren Holmes // 49
App Inspiration
INSPIRED I wanted to create an app that could track your sleep while simultaneously helping you fall asleep through various stories, music, games, advice, and back light changes. The app color scheme was inspired by the colors of the sky to create an appealing and calming application setting.

Lauren Holmes // 51
App Process
Lots of brainstorming on the name, concept, and differentiation went into this app.
52 // Snoozester
The best way to describe the complexity of the app was to write it all out first and then work the clear concepts into the design.

Poster
UNITED NATIONS DECL AR ATION My goal was to create hierarchy within the dense document of, “The United Nations: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights.” Reading the document, I reflected upon Maslow’s Pyramid of Needs and found the document to be a bit ironic in comparison. There were far more rights at the top of the pyramid than at the bottom.
58 // United Nations Declaration
Lauren Holmes // 59
Poster Inspiration
INSPIRED My original inspiration for the project was Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs pyramid because so many items within The Universal Declaration of Human Rights fit into Maslow’s pyramid. From there, I looked at various tilted design work, especially red, black, and white color palettes.

Lauren Holmes // 61
Poster Process
The UN Declaration of Human Rights is a very dense document, so I started by organizing it by category.
62 // United Nations Declaration
The next step was to give hierarchy to the most important items of the document.

Awareness Campaign
HOPEFUL HOMELE SS. Feminine products, although necessary, are rarely donated to homeless shelters. This leads to staining of the minimal clothing they have, poor hygiene, cervical cancer, and stealing. Since the topic is taboo, many people are unaware of this issue. As a designer I wanted to create resources that added awareness to this issue.
66 // Hopeful Homeless.
Lauren Holmes // 67
Awareness Campaign Inspiration
INSPIRED I was inspired by awareness campaigns that didn’t guilt people but instead encouraged and uplifted people on sensitive topics. Such as adoption campaigns by AdoptUSKids, Pedigree, and more. My goal was to educate people on a touchy subject without attacking them. I felt an interesting comparison to my campaign would be feminine product advertisements that people are used to seeing.

Awareness Campaign Process
E XPERT INTERVIE WS
Brianna Roberts Master of Public Administration ‘16, (Fem)me “We have a two prong mission, the first is to actually provide the products, which we do with our kits. Then second we try to increase advocacy and education around this issue. That comes a lot through our social media campaign and talking with groups on campus to raise awareness about this issue.”
Joanie Balderstone Co-Founder Volunteer, Distributing Dignity “I feel a great sense of purpose from this. I’d recommend being very positive on what people can do to help and focusing on why the women are where they are. We understand this is tragic, this is how you can participate.”

Atlas
STE ADY HAND OF AD PL ACEMENT All around the world advertisers are able to target who would relate to their ads, which makes them effective. This Atlas takes a look at the steady hand of advertisers in San Francisco, California specifically. By comparing the company’s revenue with the demographics of the districts a story can be told about San Francisco.
78 // Steady Hand of Ad Placement
Lauren Holmes // 79
Atlas Inspiration
INSPIRED Since my project was taking a look at print advertisements, I wanted to use the design concept of toner and cmyk colors. I took a look at many designs incorporating a toner look and bright colors. Another helpful resource were infographics showing demographic information to see how they’re most commonly represented.
80 // Steady Hand of Ad Placement
Lauren Holmes // 81
Atlas Process
Brainstorming an ephemeral way to show the districts of San Francisco was one of my biggest challenges.
82 // Steady Hand of Ad Placement
The design of the atlas evolved as the concept became more concise.
