Websites

↓

Hannah Pipkin’s website needed a refresh - her previous site no longer reflected her style or contained her most updated work. After discussing her goals and visual inspiration, I created this clean and personalized site; utilizing custom CSS to apply her handwriting to the navigation bar, and providing her with basic training to upkeep the site herself once the project was over.

Logos

What I love about a logo is that it’s born from conversation and understanding - what does the client value, what colors call to them, what elements are important to them, and what do they want to communicate?

I truly love signage and it is so important! You’ve got one (initial) chance to catch someone’s eye while communicating the most important details. From postcards to posters, I balance shapes, colors, and text to create an interesting and informative design.

Visualized Information

↓

Visualizing information is like a puzzle - how can I make the information as readable and engaging as possible, within the established confines of the project (length of provided copy, brand requirements, physical space, etc.)? I do love a puzzle! Not to mention, I was thrilled to be specifically asked to design the holiday dessert order form for Le Café Louis Vuitton in New York City.

Event Menus

↓

Restaurants regularly requested menus for special events, often with just a day’s notice. I chose to combine new and existing elements to create something cohesive with the brand, yet original.

The Lounge’s double-sided, 4.25” x 11” menu no longer accommodated their offerings, nor reflected their style. They requested an updated menu in an 8.5” x 11”, booklet-style format. Incorporating a few existing elements, I enhanced their 70’s style to create the fun and flowing menu below, which is only one of the three designs they chose.

Faceplates

For Starr Restaurants’ massive gift card program, I redesigned the digital faceplates for almost every restaurant. I used existing photography and assets to evoke a fresh expression of the brand. My favorites of the bunch are below, and the rest can be seen on their website here.

The background is white and gray marble. On top are the words "Barclay Prime," in black, between black brackets.

The background is a sideview of a rustic table setting, and a wall with white backsplash. The words "Talula's Garden," in orange and red, are on top, with a butterfly as the apostrophe.

The background is a peach-toned sideview of a dining area. Tables, chairs, and table dividers are geometric and minimalist. The word "Morimoto," in white with the "o's" filled in black is on the top right.

The background is white, with seven, navy blue, hand-drawn chicken icons on top. The words "Le Coucou," in red, are on the bottom right.

The background is lime green, with a collage of a tortilla, corn, a marigold, a slice of cake, and an oyster with wings. The words "El Presidente," in gray and white, are in the middle right.

The background is a table setting, with wicker chairs. The words "Le Diplomate," in white with a blue outline, are in the center, with red accents around the word.

The background is a a wall of black and white photos in gold and black picture frames. The words "The Clock Tower," in white, are contained within one of the center frames.

The background is a large golden Buddha statue with red and gold tones. The word "Buddakan," in white, are on top in the middle.

The background is a metallic structure with a purple and yellow overlay. The words "Electric Lemon" are in black and on the bottom.

Gray and white stripes in the background and an ornate oval frame in the middle. Inside the frame is an eagle drawing, and the words "The Occidental" are above the eagle.

White background, the word "Babbo" in the middle. The "a" and "o" are red, the other letters are a black. A jester icon holding cooking utensils is standing above the word.

A pink, cream, brown, and black beachy-background, with a flamingo icon. The word "Slim's," in black, is on the bottom right.

The background is a close-up of a pair of vibrant blue jelly-fish. The words "STEAK 954," in white, are in the middle

To increase Philly Art Center’s social media presence and the public’s understanding of their pedagogy, I enhanced their provided copy to design the series below. I wanted to ensure there was an approachable whimsicality to the post; kid-friendly and fun, but extremely thoughtful.
