T5 Website Design

This is actually a University project I completed during my 1st year at university. We were given the task of designing a Logo for "T5" and to design a website giving information about all the courses taking place at T5, which T5 being the name of the creative floor of the university. I used a 960 px frame to make sure the website fits on a regular monitor screen. I decided to go for a dark background with a colourful header text and speech bubble type menu buttons. The CMYK colours of the main menu and the lime green T5 logo are well contrasted with the background. To encourage student participation/ evolvement, I also implemented a "recent Student Work' area to encourage students to upload their work. additionally, I included links to popular bookmarking sites such as Digg and popular social networking sites such as Facebook.

Irish Beer Label Design Application

A Little while ago I designed this Irish beer label using an image of myself during my free time to improve my knowledge of illustrator. Now, thanks to the beautiful layered stock images over at LiveSurface.com, I've been able to push the project further and apply the label to an actual beer bottle.The end result looks pretty believable but still It'll be really funny to go down the supermarket and see a shelf full of beer with my face on them LOL.

MTV Main Stage Bus Stop Poster

In my spare time, I created this Bus Stop version of my MTV Main Stage poster and was looking for images on Istockphoto where it could be applied to visualise how it will look in the real world. The end result is really believable and will definitely reach the target audience with its colourful and funky theme MTV is known for. The use of white space creates emphasis on the design and the message, which can be easily read even during rush hours.

UBSU Logo Redesign

In this University project, we had to redesign the Logo for the University's Student Union using no more than 3 spot colours. I use two spot colours that closely match the university's official colours. The sphere with the recognisable University of Bolton swash can be interpreted as a world for students, with the figure-ground swash as an "S" for student.

AIDS Poster

For this University project, we were to design an AIDS poster. We were given the text and a square canvas of 200 mm X 200 mm. I decided to go for a bold and angled design. The red goes well with the topic (AIDS) as this is the colour usually associated with AIDS related printed materials. The text despite being at an angle is perfectly legible with no ugly rags, rivers or orphans.
