3. Dress-form created entirely from different typefaces that reflect
the coordinating characteristics of dramatic, genuine, loyal
and ambitious.
4. Created my own fashion brand based on the concept of using invis-
ible zippers to give the garments adaptablility. I created the logo of
“Fusion” to represent the predominatly neautral base of my clothes
with colorful accents that reflect the current trend. The “I” in Fusion
is a zipper representing the technology that will set the Fusion brand
apart from the rest.
5. Using the fashion brand Fusion, I created a shirt prototype
showing the convertible sleeve lengths. I styled the outfits to
show the shirt with long sleeves, short sleeves and as a vest
and took all the photography.
Using the fashion brand Fusion, I created a magazine adver-
tisment spread. Once again I styled all of the outfits and took
the photography.
6. Using the fashion brand Fusion, I created a billboard that shows the
transition of the garment from long sleeves to short sleeves and then to a
vest. The logo is used on the crossing walk. A coordinating bench sits
infront of the billboard saying “One Shirt, One City, Endless Possibilities”.
7. Using the fashion brand Fusion, I created an iphone take over advertis-
ment. The small banner ad would first appear on the bottom of a fashion
based app and then it would expand to takeover the screen. The user
would then have to “unzip” to reveal the three versions of the Fusion shirt.
8. 5 page Editorial spread on the Haidan artist Robert Davison featuring his
whimsical paintings and hand carved masks.

10. A graphic poster to advertise the Haidan artist Robert Davdison
using the concept of seeing the world through Davdison’s eyes.
11. A typographical poster to advertise the Haidan artist
Robert Davdison using the type to create the face of one
of his totem poles.
12. A direct mail piece brochure with a die-cut tree line as shown in the folded
version of the brochure. The envelope would then feature a square die-cut
in order to show the title of the brochure that is in the envelope. The last
item shows the from of the envelope.
When the brochure opens, there will be an eagle that will act
as a “save the date” and can be detached as well as stands on
its own. There will also be spot gloss varnish in the shape of
Davdison’s artwork.
13. The spot gloss varnish is placed on advent doors that
open up to reveal the colored version of the artwork
and a description of the artwork. The back of the
brochure includes information on the museum and the
times of the exibit.
14. This photoshop piece represents a Shakespear quote and the two feelings
of fire and ice.
