Bohs & Hons

Bohs & Hons is a web project stemming from my desire for a concrete list of fun things to do around Baltimore, MD. Featuring all sorts of hand-picked activities, bars, restaurants and otherwise, I’m hoping to give the young, bored, or fiscally challenged citizens of Charm City a resource for their down time or dinner time.

Parker Brothers Classics

These re-designs of classic Parker Brothers board games stemmed from a desire to deconstruct the overdone packaging board games nowadays are so known for. Featured on Fast Company and in CMYK Magazine.

Evergreen Health Cooperative

For this temporary landing page for Evergreen Health Cooperative, I chose to create a simple yet refreshing one-pager. With cues taken from the existing brand, an expansion was implemented with subtle gradients and bold typography.

Completed at Drexler as lead designer.

Michael Hoeweler

This redesign of New York illustrator Michael Hoeweler’s website was created with accessibility of content being the primary goal. A thumbnail system and showcase of work became the main aspects of the site, with added personal touches of hand-lettering and illustrative detail.

Occasional Symphony

Occasional Symphony is a local Baltimore non-profit, playing secular and non-traditional holidays and events around the city. The idea of modularity played an important role in the crafting of their brand, so exciting colors and a geometric, simplified type lockup became the focus of the completed logo and subsequent brand guidelines.

Public Works Ale

The website for Public Works Ale, a local Baltimore brew, focuses on the brand’s use of antique and modern aesthetics. The primary goal for this assignment was accessibility and design that built on their existing brand.

Completed at Drexler as lead designer, in partnership with Matter Design.

Type & Logos

My work for the past couple of years has turned to an extreme interest in the illustrative and aesthetic nature of typography and lettering. These are samples from assignments and play.
