About

I am a graphic designer focused on creating clear, engaging, and meaningful visual communication across branding, logo design, poster design, illustration, and layout design. My work combines structured brand identity systems with more expressive visual storytelling, always aiming for strong composition, clarity, and a cohesive visual language. With a background in education, I developed strong skills in simplifying complex ideas and communicating them visually in a clear and audience-focused way. I bring this mindset into all my design work, especially branding and visual identity projects. I am open to projects of all sizes and focused on delivering thoughtful, high-quality design solutions while continuing to grow through real-world creative work.

Created a logo concept for the fictional brand “Born By Pressure.” The brief focused on a whimsical yet slightly edgy direction, incorporating a lotus flower as a symbol of hope. I explored typography and illustrated the logo mark to create a balanced visual identity that combines softness with a structured, expressive feel. #graphicdesigner #logo #branding #designer #photo #illustrator

Created a conceptual poster depicting a cycle of smartphone-headed figures marching around a brain, symbolising how smartphone addiction can take control of the mind. The composition explores themes of dependency, repetition, and reduced attention through a strong visual metaphor. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

Created a typography poster titled “KAOS” (“CHAOS“), focusing on expressing the concept of chaos through type. The word itself and the overall composition were designed to visually reflect disorder, tension, and movement. The project explores how typography can be used as a visual tool to communicate abstract concepts without additional imagery. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

Created a typography poster titled “MÜRA“ (“NOISE”), visually interpreting the concept through the idea of sound coming out of a speaker/megaphone. The composition uses typography as the main element to represent sound projection, intensity, and visual disruption, translating the movement of noise into a structured visual form. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

Created a typography poster titled “VAIKUS“ (“SILENCE”), where each sound wave represents the word “silence” itself. The waves gradually diminish in amplitude until they reach zero, visually expressing the disappearance of sound. As the motion fades completely, the composition resolves into silence, with the word “silence” placed subtly in the background. The design explores the relationship between repetition, sound, and absence through typographic and waveform-based structure.

Created a typography poster titled “LAI“ (“WIDE”), focusing on visually interpreting the meaning of the word through type. The composition explores ideas of expansion, openness, and spatial breadth, using typography as the main visual element to communicate the concept in a simple and intentional way. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

Created a typography poster titled “KITSAS“ (“NARROW”), focusing on visually interpreting the meaning of the word through type. The composition explores ideas of restriction, compression, and limited space, using typography as the main visual element to communicate the concept in a minimal and intentional way. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

Created a conceptual visual narrative poster exploring procrastination and avoidance of responsibilities. The composition depicts black clouds filled with tasks looming overhead while a pyjama-clad figure chooses to fall into bed instead of starting work. The design uses metaphor to communicate delay, overwhelm, and the tension between responsibility and escape. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

  • Graphic Designer

Created a conceptual visual narrative poster exploring the fear of war. The composition depicts world leaders as looming caricatures above a scene where bombs fall toward a girl curled inside a protective bubble, symbolising vulnerability and psychological pressure. The design uses strong visual metaphor to communicate anxiety, power imbalance, and the human impact of conflict. #photo #graphicdesigner #illustrator #designer

  • Graphic Designer

Created a complete brand kit for the fictional brand “Wufo.” The project explored visual identity development, including logo design, typography selection, and supporting brand elements. The goal was to build a cohesive and versatile identity system that could be applied across different touchpoints while maintaining a clear and consistent visual language. #photo #graphicdesigner #logo #branding #designer
