Industry Experience

Education, Media & Entertainment, Professional Services
    uniE621 Bar Chimera: non alcoholic bar
    Chimère is a bistro and bar whose signature concept revolves around alcohol-free beverages. It also serves as an art gallery space, offering artists a welcoming and inclusive environment. Those wishing to join this creative community can do so in a safe, supportive setting — free from the negative effects of alcohol — where they can share their artwork, connect with other artists, and find a niche audience for their creations.
    uniE621 Play Poster
    Two theatre posters, originally part of a triptych (Art, Prologue, and Printemps), exploring themes of human relationships. Shown here is one of them — a student project created for the fictional theatre company “Théâtre du coin.”
    uniE621 Hair products
    The JE M’AIME product line features three hair care products designed for voluminous, curly, or wavy hair: a shampoo, a conditioner, and a styling cream — perfect for hair with personality. Why the rooster? The rooster symbolizes pride — and a touch of vanity. He knows he rules the barnyard and certainly knows how to charm the hens.
    uniE621 Chocolate/marshmallow beverage comic
    “Planche” is a project created by graphic designer and instructor Brigitte Boudrias at Collège Ahuntsic. It consists of a book featuring culinary recipes developed by students in the Graphic Design AEC program. Each recipe is illustrated as a single-page comic strip, with no text, telling a story through visuals alone. The project shown here depicts a hot chocolate recipe. The missing ingredient — a marshmallow — unfortunately wanders into the magical burrow of mischievous rabbits.
    uniE621 Coffee bar
    Moka Club is a café that allows customers to order coffee and desserts online and pick them up at the take-out counter. The brand’s graphic design was originally created by Étienne Lamy from Collège Ahuntsic, while the UI/UX design was developed collaboratively between Lamy and myself. This project showcases our teamwork in designing a website and mobile app prototype for the café, created in Figma. All dessert and coffee images were carefully cut out and refined in Photoshop to enhance the visual presentation.
