Industry Experience

Media & Entertainment
    uniE621 Label and Magazine design
    I designed a series of labels for a seasonal launch in collaboration with a wine company, with each bottle representing a flavor profile perfectly suited to its respective season. The label designs captured the essence of each season—highlighting the mood, palette, and personality of the wine through carefully curated illustrations and typography. In addition to the labels, I also designed the accompanying magazine feature, which offered a behind-the-scenes look at the wine farm and beautifully tied together the seasonal story through layout, imagery, and editorial design. graphicdesigner…
    uniE621 Book Cover Design
    A funky yet elegant book cover design that reimagines the traditional doodle style with a modern, artistic twist. This cover transforms casual, hand-drawn elements into a cohesive and visually striking composition, balancing playful spontaneity with refined aesthetics. The result is a unique design that feels both expressive and intentional, making it stand out on the shelf while still maintaining a sense of sophistication. graphicdesigner illustrator…
    uniE621 Illustrated Children's Book
    I Want to Go to the Moon is a beautifully illustrated children's storybook that tells the heartfelt tale of a little fish with a big dream—to journey to the moon. Through whimsical illustrations and gentle storytelling, the book captures themes of curiosity, determination, and the magic of dreaming beyond your limits, inspiring young readers to believe that even the most unlikely dreams can take flight. graphicdesigner illustrator writer…
    uniE621 Invitations
    These 21st birthday invitations were creatively designed as a deck of playing cards, offering a unique and memorable twist on traditional invites. Each card featured beautiful illustrations of the birthday girl as the “Queen,” symbolising her stepping into adulthood at 21. The front of the card captured this regal transformation with elegance and charm, while the back retained the intricate detailing and classic design elements found on traditional playing cards, blending celebration with sophistication and a touch of whimsy. graphicdesigner illustrator…
    uniE621 Pieta & Poen Brand Design
    This was a passion project of mine. Pieta & Poen is a fictional bakery concept based in South Africa, designed to appeal to a local audience that appreciates freshly baked goods and artisanal coffee. Situated in the heart of Cape Town, the brand blends the warmth and charm of an old farmhouse kitchen with the gritty, raw textures of an industrial setting. The aesthetic is a thoughtful contrast—rustic familiarity meets urban edge, creating a cosy yet contemporary space that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. graphicdesigner branding…
