About me
I have 6 years of experience working in graphic design across print, digital and retail. I am knowledgeable in various types of work including brand identities, packaging, advertisements and exhibition display graphics. I am particularly interested in branding and packaging. I would like to develop my expertise in this area and I am currently looking for new and exciting opportunities.
Projects
  • Jolee
    JoleeBranding & Packaging l 2018 Jolee is a Korean cosmetic brand. Its range of products were developed in the UK in collaboration with revolutionary Korean beauty technology. The Brand’s philosophy is to meet customers’ needs for advanced beauty products that follow the latest trends. My mission was to create a brand identity and design packaging that suited the products. Pastel colours and Korean words define the Brand’s Korean identity. Simple, modern fonts reflect the latest technology used to develop the products.
  • Pipkin
    PipkinBranding & Packaging l 2016 - 2018 Pipkin started as a superfood brand launching coconut oil and butter in 2016, and since its initial launch, it has considerably expanded its product range including goji berries, apple cider vinegar, hemp seeds and so on. Today it is a lifestyle company which helps people transform their lives by introducing easy and healthy recipes, and other useful health tips. It won Great Taste Award 2017 for its coconut butter. In collaboration with a branding agency, I developed Pipkin’s brand identity and packaging. I saw Pipkin as a friendly, natural and vibrant superfood brand. To express this I decided to add different colours to the wordmark and the labels. To ensure clear and cohesive branding of the products, consistent layout was used for every product label design. To modernise and make the brand more appealing, I used hand-writing and san-serif fonts.
  • Pranaturals
    PranaturalsBranding & Packaging l 2017 - 2018 Pranaturals is a natural skincare brand. Their product range is made with natural ingredients and key beauty products from across the globe. I collaborated with a branding agency to develop a brand identity and packaging designs that reflect the Brand's philosophy. Images of each ingredient appear on the product labels in natural colours.
