    paper Graphic Design Portfolio 2026
    A curated selection of my work as a graphic designer, focused on branding, visual systems and motion design. This portfolio showcases a range of projects developed during my BA (Hons) in Graphic Design, combining strategic thinking with strong visual execution. Each project explores a different design challenge, from identity creation and typographic systems to campaign development and motion concepts. The work reflects my approach to design: concept-driven, structured and adaptable across multiple platforms. I am particularly interested in creating cohesive visual languages that function consistently across print, digital and environmental applications. Projects included: • Busan Bites – Korean street food brand identity • Follow the Red – HSBC campaign concept (D&AD New Blood Awards) • Southwark Typeface – architecture-driven type design • Editorial and visual communication explorations This portfolio is intended for studios, agencies and creative teams looking for a designer with a strong balance between concept, craft and system thinking. graphicdesign branding visualidentity motiondesign typography portfolio designstudent creative designsystems resume
