Semester Two 2025
A typographic exploration combining design theory and visual rhythm, reinterpreting terms like counter, eye, and baseline through expressive layouts inspired by Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo, and a compendium translating fundamental typographic rules into bold, instructional design.
Documentation showcasing the process behind the “Eight Principles of Design” motion graphic, including research, storyboards, and concept development. Highlights my exploration of timing, rhythm, and visual metaphor as tools for communicating design theory through motion.

This project documents my process from research and sketching to digital refinement, focusing on how Gestalt principles and proportion create calm, recognisable symbols. The final pictographs use bold, unified silhouettes to express ideas like rest, growth, and connection across both print and digital contexts.
