[POINT CLOUD POSTERS] - 2025
design 1
Based on a short introductory video I made concerning my design philosophy and the FUNDAMENTAL IMPORTANCE of EXPERIMENTAL, creative FAILURE. The poster design itself is largely inspired by UI design in the film Blade Runner 49 (done by Territory Studio), AS WELL AS THE WONDERFUL WORK OF nicolas Lopardo. The graphics showcase POINT CLOUD VISUALS CREATED vis-à-vis geometry NODES IN BLENDER. POST-PROCESS cRT WORKFLOWS WERE DONE IN A WEB PLATFORM CALLED "TOOOOOOLS" CREATED BY Daniil Sukhovskoy.

THIS SET OF PIECES WAS CREATED AS A PART OF ODITI'S "DESIGN A PRINT" BRIEF AS A PART OF THEIR REBRAND AS AN ART CURATION PLATFORM.

[BONE (VISAGES)] - 2024
design 1
INSPIRED by Death Stranding, Ghost in the Shell, and The Matrix, "bone" is a set of visuals to accompany an eyewear design I made last year. All visuals and associated designs were created within 2 days of late notice of the brief. The human cybernetics visuals take great inspiration from Lisa Meinesz's work, as well as this piece from are.na. THE EYEWEAR ITSELF TAKES VISUAL INSPIRATION FROM SAM BRIDGE'S GLASSES IN DT AND ARE DESIGNED TO BE 3D PRINTED.

[ALL I CAN OFFER] - 2024
design 1
INSPIRED BY PINK SWEAT$’S DESIGN LANGUAGE, THIS “ALL I CAN OFFER” SINGLE COVER FEATURES HIS NAMESAKE PROMINENTLY. MY VISUAL JUSTIFATION DURING MY PRESENTAITION STATES THAT “This cover art is inspired by the airy, ethereal feeling I get from Pink Sweat$'s discography. Metaphorically, "love" is represented as the background environment, while our material possessions—here, on-brand items—float detached, lacking any foundation. The surrounding "world" symbolizes both the ubiquitous nature of love and how it contrasts with commodification, despite the emphasis on material aspects.” THIS PIECE WAS ENTIRELY RENDERED IN BLENDER.
Context 2
THIS COVER WAS MADE FOR ODITI’S “DESIGN THE SINGLE ARTWORK FOR ‘ALL I CAN OFFER’ WITH THE MUSICIAN AS THE SOLE JUDGE.

[ANKA SNEAKER (ZELLERFELD)] - 2023
design 1
For this design, my main inspiration was largely Apple marketing-wise and Zellerfeld's past collaborations regarding the shoe. A large part of Zellerfeld's overall identity is forward-looking, and I wanted to encapsulate that with a futuristic, yet clean aesthetic. This is also represented by the shoe itself. If I win, 30% of my profit will be donated to a different nonprofit each month the shoe is available. This was my first real intro to 3D design and my first time using the open-source software Blender. All 3D design work is by me, as well as all graphic aspects of the project (logos, captions, etc).
Context 2
This was my entry to the recent prospect100 and Zellerfeld global design brief. Zellerfeld is a company that 3D prints fully recyclable footwear without the use of factory manufacturing. Recent Zellerfeld collaborations include the likes of Heron Preston, Moncler, and RAINS, among others. The company has been featured in Forbes, Time's Best Inventions List, and various other publications over the past couple of years or so.

[UNITY (AMFAR)*WIN]
design 1
Via this piece, I not only wanted to embody Pride through illustrating sexual fluidity, but also wanted to demonstrate a message of unity; a defined sense of camaraderie between different sexual orientations via the support-like structure in the middle. I found that this idea of unification further encapsulated what amfAR has done regarding advocacy work in the past/present. Photos are courtesy of Harry Beard, one of the co-founders of prospect100/Oditi. This piece was also largely inspired by the cover art for Tame Impala's Currents, designed by Robert Beatty.
Context 2
I was ranked 1st place out of the top 100 design submissions with all proceeds of my work donated towards AIDS research (amfAR’s foundation). The judges for this competition included Jeff Koons, Kate Moss, and Kendall Jenner, among others. My piece, “UNITY,” was also showcased outside the FLANNELS department store in London, thanks in no small part to Harry Beard, one of the co-founders of Prospect100.
