    Process: A Designer's Capstone Workbook

    This was my senior capstone project for Loyola University of New Orleans. I worked on this project with Cali Blume, another designer and my mentor, to ensure the spirit of the Loyola Design Department shines through the typeface and color choices.

    My problem that I decided to tackle was a way to guide students through the Capstone process using minimalist design and interactive workbook pages. This way, professors could see the way the students
    were thinking while also having small tips to make sure students stay on track during their process.

    I used easy to read typography, grids, and colors to make the book pop while also making sure it was easy to replicate and reprint to be money-friendly for the Design program. I wrote the content based off the client’s descriptions and directions while also making sure it was easy to read as well as understood if skimmed through by students.
