For a hypothetical Richard Serra exhibition at Glenstone Museum, this project celebrates the monumental presence and temporality of Serra’s iconic Corten steel structures. The design emphasizes simplicity, with visual elements and line-based icons highlighting the geometric precision of his work. The color palette draws inspiration from the warm, earthy tones of weathering steel, reflecting its distinct texture and transformative nature over time .
Sarbat is for everyone who loves trying new flavors. Some of our drinks use familiar ingredients with an Asian twist. They’re also great as a spicy margarita mix or in mocktails.
In the streets of Dhaka, Sarbat is made fresh at roadside stalls while you wait. It is prepared right in front of you.
Now, with modern packaging and design, Sarbat brings that experience to health-conscious people. It offers a fresh and unique drink for those looking for something different.
Kautha Ko is a society dedicated to exploring the mysteries of dreams, sleep paralysis, and the folklore of the night hag. Founded by dream enthusiasts, it transforms experiences of dread into wisdom, fostering a supportive community that celebrates the magic between sleep and wakefulness.
The design elements draw from patterns created during a class experiment and inspired by dreams. Using a mix of photography and illustration, these patterns reflect the ambiguity of dreams, turning their obscure nature into meaningful visuals applied across the designs.
This fictional society’s package includes a member identification card, a members guide, and a dream journal. It encourages self-discovery through dream exploration and builds a sense of belonging, helping members share and overcome fears associated with sleep paralysis.
I began this design with a grid of isometric geometry, establishing a structured foundation to build upon. The concept was to follow a structure and then intentionally break it, reflecting the transformative power of art.
While most visual arts are confined to two dimensions—even movies and TV screens—I sought to push this boundary by designing the text “ARTSCAPE 2024” as a three-dimensional illusion. To further emphasize the theme of breaking conventions, some letters feature elongated descenders, symbolizing an escape from traditional typographic constraints.
Although the design appears structured and architectural, the void within the logo serves a dual purpose: it represents an escape from confined spaces and evokes the image of an open building in an urban landscape. This symbolizes how art can create spaces of freedom and inspiration, offering an escape from the structured, mechanical routines of daily life.
