Ouioui

Packaging Design

For the Packaging Design Project, I created a skincare line. I wanted to target my line to teens, which made my style perfect for this: fun, modern, and minimalistic. 

 

As I was working with skincare, I figured keeping a nude color scheme with splashes of color would fit best. I came up with my brand name, “Ouioui”, as it is a saying my friends and I like to use on a daily basis.

Graceful

Foreign Language

The message of exhibiting an idea without the need to understand a language to grasp what is being conveyed is displayed through each piece.

 

I created posters based off of adjectives describing people, using only Korean.

 

For the graceful piece, I found a makeup brush from a magazine, and transformed it into a ballerina.

School

Frank Stella

The Frank Stella Project was creating designs inspired by Frank Stella based off of the architecture of my school, Beckman High School.

 

I based my piece from the stairs, the handrails, and the school doors.

 

To create my own twist, I decided to split the designs up into 3, created asymmetry by placing the cardboard pieces unevenly, and made my designs more abstract.

Medium: Laser cut cardboard pieces

Chasing Light Studios

Stationery Set

Chasing Light Studios is a creative film & photo production company.

 

I assisted in creating a logo, in which I designed a wordmark in sans serif as the client desired a simple and modern style. The client also requested to have the color scheme as monochromatic blue and gray.

 

After completing the logo, I created a sample stationery set.

Lost

Sustained Investigation

For my Sustained Investigation of the AP Portfolio, I created pieces on the theme of lost: as we become more immersed in technology, we become lost from genuine human connection. I focused on shape, space, emphasis, and contrast.

 

Each round, I reflected, asking questions like: How can I use contrast to make the emphasis feel out of place? I challenged myself and grew as a designer.

Feel The Crunch!

Editorial Design

“Feel The Crunch!” is a short, informational article about 3 fun facts about apples.

 

As the theme is fun and bright, I kept a warm color scheme and made the characters interact with the information. I also tilted the title page to bring emphasis.

A Snake Spilling SSSecrets

Upcycle 

The Upcycle Project was to create a piece out of scrap materials and random items around the house to create something gallery ready.

 

I used an old shoe box, a zipper, buttons, & magazine papers to create, "A Snake Spilling Sssecrets".

 

To add emphasis, I took a picture of my piece, and only kept the snake’s tongue and pun in color.

Logo Design

The Legacy Magnet Academy is the new magnet school in TUSD. 

 

The client requested a logo and icons of their traits: T.I.D.E (Technology, Innovation, Design, & Entrepreneurship). Their symbol of the wave was also included.

 

For the logo, I made a combination logo of a pictorial and wordmark. Negative space was used to spell out T.I.D.E for the icons..

Name

Collage

The Name piece was created by taking my name and cutting them in random direction and sizes, almost like turning them into puzzle pieces.  

 

Scrambling and shuffling them around, I placed them however I desired, allowing my creativity determine which piece went where.

 

I utilized space, thus creating an asymmetrical work by crowding the pieces mostly towards the left.​

WASC

Multi-Page Media

WASC is the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

​

The client requested for a cover, chapter, and sub pages based on the four traits of Beckman High School: Arts, Academics, Athletics, Activities, & including their statement: Learn, Lead, Serve.

 

Incorporating motifs of circles and lines, this communicates the theme of connection; each trait ties with each other.
