    uniE621 Website, illustrations, logo
    The Rubbish Trip, a zero waste advocacy group in New Zealand, enlisted my help to update their website design and logo to enhance their online presence and reach. I redesigned their logo, featuring an illustration of founders Hannah and Liam on a tandem bicycle, symbolizing their journey through waste reduction. The website was revamped with a modern, user-friendly layout, bright visuals, and mobile responsiveness to improve user experience and engagement. These updates have successfully communicated The Rubbish Trip's message, strengthened their brand identity, and appealed to a broader audience interested in sustainable living practices. branding illustrator webdesigner designer graphicdesigner logo
    uniE621 AI-Assisted Book Cover Design
    I collaborated with Quentin Wilson Publishing to design book covers using AI and my editing skills, aiming for cost-effective and visually appealing solutions. Leveraging AI technology, I generated designs aligned with the themes and genres of the titles, then refined them to meet specific requirements. This approach resulted in a series of compelling covers that captured each book's essence while maintaining a cohesive look across the catalog. The success of this project showcases the potential of AI in design to enhance creativity and efficiency in publishing. branding graphicdesigner logo illustrator designer photo
    uniE621 o2b Healthy Children's range
    For my project with O2B Healthy, I illustrated and designed labels for their children's range. They featured fun elements that appealed to children, while still being informative and clear about the products. The overall aim was to create labels that were visually appealing and informative, so both kids and their parents could understand the benefits of the products.
    uniE621 Hogarth Chocolate package design
    I collaborated with Hogarth Chocolate to create a minimal, high-end luxury design for their packaging. One of my illustrations became the brand's signature. As demand grew, the packaging evolved into a more commercially viable treatment, maintaining the original elements but with a larger and bolder design. Karl wanted a unique chocolate bar design, leading to a collaboration that resulted in a stunning 3D render and mold. The innovative packaging and bar design contributed to Hogarth Chocolate's international recognition for flavor and design. illustrator branding graphicdesigner logo webdesigner designer
