GNOCCHI RECIPE 

418-newspapercovermockup1900.png

NEWSPAPER

I wanted to inform others about a food that is influenced by a part of my diasporic identity, so I decided to create a step-by-step recipe on gnocchi, which is a part of specific South American countries and its motherland, Italy.

 

That being said, gnocchi is an Italian dish that can be also translated in Spanish as “ñoqui”.

I wanted the composition to be typographically legible yet still obtain a dynamic layout, than a typical recipe found in newspapers!

BOOK

I designed this book primarily for my love of art and global history and more specifically, industrial design history. 

 

 

This book takes on a quirky, stylistic approach that is meant to excite and create a semiotic relationship with designers and the education of design.

LILLIAN THE NEIGHBOR

BIOGRAPHIC BOOK

This project was based on discovering a block in
New York City and spending several weeks collecting research, images, and materials as part of my design process. As a recent resident of the Lower East Side,
I discovered the Henry Street Settlement.

The biographic book sheds light on the American Nurse and activist, Lillian Wald, who founded the Henry Street Settlement.

I wanted to promote her contributions to American history, despite her unfamiliarity to many today. Throughout the book, there is a symbolic reference to the windows that are still intact today after celebrating 105 years in 2019.

Flat Type-specimen

Designed to help people that are both legally blind, totally blind and sighted, this modular-typeface Sammy Sans is meant to combine both Braille and the English language together. Not only is this is a legible alphabet for the blind, with tactile dots, but it also encourages sighted people to learn Braille by assimilating language barriers.

8-BIT HISTORY

BOOK

I designed and published this book based on the culture of arcade games. Growing up with two older brothers, video games became a regular hobby throughout my life.

Looking deeper into the start of 8-bit gaming, I had a lot of fun incorporating specific gaming elements into the book, whether it was stylizing each chapter on its own agenda or mimicking certain gameplay.
