Florida!
A24
Book
2022
Book design and art direction for A24’s Florida! — a 574-page hyper-local travel guide book to the most far-out state in America. The book features a puffy cover with blocky, eccentric display typography reminiscent of classic Florida postcards (here, a stretched version of Zaft by Jacob J. Wise). The color palette revolves around a “Florida Pink” swatch, a shade of pink that was pulled from the wildlife and architecture of the state. Each chapter of the book corresponds to a different geographical part of the state and begins with a fold-out illustrated map of the locations and landmarks in that chapter. Folios on the side of each page provide strong wayfinding and a sense of location throughout the book.
Florida! is available to purchase from the A24 Shop here.

Skyline Mini Golf
The Walker
Identity
2022
Identity design and accompanying illustrations for The Walker’s Skyline Mini Golf 2022 which features a ten-hole, artist-designed course on the rooftop of The Walker. The identity revolves around a golf course of holes and balls suspended in a dreamy summer air. The main display type used across the identity features oversized oval tittles that serves as a further visual nod to the world of golf holes and balls.
The identity was carried out across out-of-home posters in Minneapolis, print collateral for The Walker such free passes and tickets, museum signage, T-shirts, as well as digital ads.

Thresholds 50: Before | After
MIT School of Architecture
Publication
2022
Publication design for the 50th issue of MIT School of Architecture’s peer-reviewed journal, Thresholds. The theme of the issue, “Before | After”, deals with the poignancies of the passage of time, looking backward and forward, at pasts, past futures, and present possibilities. As an allusion to the murky thresholds of “before” and “after”, the book features a neon red PMS spot color that ebbs and flows from the cover art through every single red in the book in fluctuating amounts—whether it’s through archival imagery, present-day photographs, differing gradient floods, handwritten elements, and even the threads in the Swiss-bound spine—serving as a metaphor for in-between moments that hint at the future and remind us that the past is sticky, persistent, and, in many ways, always with us.
Thresholds 50: Before | After can be purchased directly from MIT Press here.
