This project from start to finish is a testament to my love of typography and fascination with history. In this Case is, at its core, a type specimen that aims to engage design students with the historical contexts and attitudes behind the more well-known and commonly used type styles. It contextualises typeface classifications within their respective periods by drawing parallels with architectural styles. This presents typefaces as a sort of ‘time capsule’, that reflect their historical contexts.

This project is a response to the 2025 student brief “Milestones” from the International Society of Typographic Designers. 89 Seconds is an editorial and typographic exploration of the concept of the Doomsday Clock, the metaphorical symbol for our proximity to the end of the world as we know it. It is a confronting public service announcement, warning of widespread global consequences if nuclear risk increases and our climate worsens, set every year by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.

TasteBuds is a collaborative project from my third year at university. We developed a brand that aimed to facilitate connections between recently graduated and yo-pro friends. We developed the brand and visual system collaboratively, and then each took the lead on a touchpoint that we could apply our skills to. Print advertising and video commercials, including social media were done by my group members, and I took the lead on the website.

This third year project was a significant turning point in my creative practice, it developed my strong interest in the history of type and my already established love of typographic design. I designed and hand-made a book of twenty typefaces that have “changed the world” in some way. 

Moving parts is a hypothetical design conference focused on working cross-discipline in the design industry. For this project I worked primarily in Indesign and After Effects, with some Photoshopping involved in wayfinding outputs.

This poster series was a second year project working with the fundamentals of typographic design and type layouts. It involved creating four posters, type based, type and image, expressive type, and a calendar. These were primarily made in Indesign with some use of Illustrator. The system was then applied to an informative mobile based micro-site in Figma.

This project was a collaborative project with my classmate, Tamon, in third year. We created posters, a mobile website and animations for a hypothetical music series for O week at Massey university. Sound Waves is a concert series for O week at Massey University.
