Tea Time Packaging

Tea Time Packaging

Tea Time is a brand I created for a commercial packaging solution project that focused on creating product packaging that displayed a strong visual design as well as considering its sustainability and ecological impact.

Tennis Infographic

Tennis Infographic

My challenge was to create an information visualisation in the form of a static information graphic. For my infographic, I focused on tennis serve data among 10 male tennis players in 2022. The circular graph explores the average percentage of first serve points won combining all surfaces as well as each court surface individually. The line graph looks at the average serve rating of each player on each court surface and allows for the data to be explored.

Greeting Cards

Greeting Cards

For this project I was required to create a minimum viable product or market a service or subscription for the UC Makers Market held at the University of Canberra. To meet the brief of this project I made greeting cards that focused on simple, fun and unique illustrative graphics. The objective was to cater to different personalities and occasions by creating a variety of card designs that could be used for any purpose and occasion.
