Environmental graphic package for a 2013 exhibition at Chicago's Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum. The Birth of Chocolate focused on the origin, history, and production of chocolate.

To visually evoke the decadence of chocolate, I created a rich color palette and lavish title graphic. Botanical-inspired illustrations were also incorporated throughout to evoke a sense of history and visually relate the exhibit to nature. Finally, the display used a 4-segment approach to incorporate an exhibit intro and speak to each of the 3 sections of the exhibit: origin, history, and production. Layered sintra elements were incorporated for added depth and visual interest.

Environmental graphic package for Lamar National Bank in Celina, Texas. Components included: a hero wall in the teller area, a community history wall in the hospitality area, and custom privacy vinyl throughout the space.

The project incorporated the bank’s existing logo and color palette, but built upon them to further flesh out a visual identity for the bank. Throughout the environmental package, the star motif from the bank’s logo was expanded to create a dynamic pattern. On the 2 main display walls, this pattern was utilized as a base layer with colorful vinyl wallpaper. On top of the vinyl wallpaper base layers, 3-dimensional acrylic and sintra elements were added to give the displays some added depth and visual interest.

Design for the Christie’s International Real Estate Recruiting Kit. The Recruiting Kit is a high-end package that promotes the Christie’s International Real Estate network to potential affiliates and agents around the world.

Environmental graphic package for The People’s Federal Credit Union in Amarillo, Texas.

For the exterior, I created 8 graphic panels to add some life and color to the windowless concrete structure. The panels incorporated the existing logo and color palette, but added custom illustrations that symbolized key aspects of Amarillo’s history.

For the interior, I expanded upon the exterior panels by creating graphic murals that incorporated the symbolic illustrations, teal/purple color palette, and key words that spoke to the credit union’s services. The main display behind the teller area utilized this graphic mural approach on the back wall, with a translucent logo graphic on an outer glass wall. To add to the layered effect, certain tiles and illustrations were given added depth by printing them on 3/4” thick sintra.
