experimental web deSIGN

WEB DESIGN

PROJECT:

Create an experimental website design that breaks the original and modern day design strategies to make a unique and interesting design. 

PROBLEM:

Design needs to break the traditional way of “boxing” things off and making the layout more flexible and unique for user experience. Website needs to be created using only Html + CSS and Javascript

SOLUTION:

For this design I decided to go with the Harry Potter Franchise and create a design that looks like your are living in the Harry Potter universe. All of the books are moving up and down using Javascript to give users a magical feeling. All of the text moves when you hover over it to also give it a magical feeling. When you select a book all of the content changes to give users information they need for whichever book they selected such as the book cover, title, and a brief description. There is also an audio player that plays only when the user turns it on and will play Hedwigs theme song from the movie soundtrack. This design is purely done in html + css and javascript.

acme

WEB DESIGN

PROJECT:

Create a set of websites in multiple different designs for the same layout.

PROBLEM:

These website designs are mockups of potential websites using the same layout that need different designs using programs such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. 

SOLUTION:

For the first design I created Acme Law which is a law firm company and I gave it a design that works in a professional setting. I gave the design a color scheme of Blue and Black to give it a trustworthy approach to their clients. For the second design I created Acme Bakery. I decided to give Acme Bakery a warm toned color scheme to make people happy and hungry. For the third design I created Acme trucking. I decided to give the website a more rough and rustic aesthetic for that on-road feeling. For my final design choice using the same layout I created Acme Beauty. I wanted to give Acme Beauty a professional and modern look using black and white imagery. I also chose a dark purple color scheme to give off a sleek and feminine look.

BROTHER'S KEEPER

WEB DESIGN

PROJECT:

Create and redesign a website for Brother’s Keeper which is a non-profit organization. This project was apart of College Of Central Florida’s Co-op internship program. I interned as a web designer for Brother’s Keeper in this team-based project. 

PROBLEM:

Website needed to be created using WordPress and Elementor Plugin. The design needed to fit the same color scheme as the Brother’s Keeper company logo. Design also needed to be easily accessible and efficient for people of all ages. Client also needs two sets of wireframes of the design and mood boards to go with it.

SOLUTION:

We created a website that was easy to use for people of all ages. Every page is easy to read and allows users to quickly access information that they need in a time efficient manner. I created wireframes using the program Adobe XD and mood boards in Adobe Photoshop that fit the necessary design requirements for the client.

I also created a hamburger navigation system so that users can quickly and efficiently use the website in a clean and modern format. When using a website on a desktop the design changes from a single one column layout into a two column layout.

CAMERAs

GRAPHIC DESIGN

PROJECT:

Create an illustration of an object that is considered “retro” and another illustration of the same object that is considered modern.

PROBLEM:

For this project I decided to create illustrations of cameras. Both illustrations needed to be made in Adobe Illustrator and needed to give off a realistic style of design as opposed to a more cartoon style.

SOLUTION:

The design for the retro camera is modeled after the “Polaroid 1000 + Q-Light Flash” because I wanted to give viewers a feeling of nostalgia and good feelings. The design for the modern camera is modeled after a “Nikon” and the color scheme I chose is to make it look more sleek in design.

PROJECT:

Design an illustration of a group of items that work well together.

PROBLEM:

Illustration needed to be made in Adobe Illustrator and can only make up to three items in the group. Items in the group need to work well and belong together.

SOLUTION:

I created this illustration of a drink, french fries, and a cheese burger using the program Adobe Illustrator. The food is modeled after popular fast food chains in America. The color red is usually associated food and is heavily believed to link the color red with hunger which is why I used it for the color of the drink and the container that the french fries are being contained within.

GRAPHIC DESIGN

PROJECT:

Create an illustration of an object that is considered “retro” and another illustration of the same object that is considered modern.

PROBLEM:

For this project I decided to create illustrations of music listening devices. Both illustrations needed to be made in Adobe Illustrator and needed to give off a realistic style of design as opposed to a more cartoon style.

SOLUTION:

The design for cassette tape is inspired from Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy movie. I chose to illustrate the cassette tape because I wanted to give viewers good vibes and feelings of nostalgia. For the modern music listening device I chose to illustrate an iPhone that is listening to a radio station application entitled “Classic Rock Radio” thus connecting the two pieces together because they are both from the same time frame. 

DISINTEGRATE

PROJECT:

Create a illustration from a single word that corresponds with the chosen word.
