Strong National Museum of Play

Identity for the Strong Museum of play: a highly interactive, kid oriented, collections-based museum devoted to the history and exploration of play. Referencing collage and using primary colors, the design is as bold, playful, and inviting as a child's drawing.

The Sketchbook Project

Speculative redesign of The Sketchbook Project website. The search and discovery of sketchbooks is the priority of this website. The user is constantly confronted with the search bar and opportunities to browse tags, encouraging them to explore the sketchbooks and think about what interests them. The interactivity of the search space works to engage users in the books and keep them interested while navigating the site.

Purchase College Art+Design Student Handbook

A how-to guide for incoming visual art students. Commissioned by the Art+Design office @ Purchase College. Most students misplace or forget about their handbook. By encouraging them to interact with and customize it at the beginning, they are more likely to remember it exists when they really need it.
