And on this post I'm imparting a recipe I've created that that is so cheap but soooo good. And aside from the fact that it's cheap, it not too bad to eat considering the way I've revised the way you prepare the ramen.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5112192832/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1249/5112192832_7dee213eac.jpg"></a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">What you'll need:</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">1 package Ramen</span> <span style="font-style:italic;">(I get Top Ramen Oriental flavor because it's the only ramen free of any animal products.)</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">1t Curry</span> <span style="font-style:italic;">(I use wayyy more but I think one would suffice for normal people)</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">1/2t Coriander<br />1/2t Cayenne<br />1/4t Ginger<br />1/4t Cumin<br />1/4t Garam Masala<br />1/4t Tumeric<br />Ground Pepper</span><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Salt</span> <span style="font-style:italic;">(I use a special brand that has half the sodium of traditional salt)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">What you need to do:</span><br />Traditional Ramen preparation: Boil the water, add the ramen and turn heat down to low. Let it cook for 3 minutes. Now here comes the fun part. I usually drain 3/4 of my water out of the pot to make the flavor stronger. Then add the spices and ONLY 1/4 of the seasoning packet. This not only cuts down on the calories but the sodium by 3/4! Heyyyoooo Awesome right? Now just mix it up, pour that puppy in a bowl and add salt and pepper as needed :) BON APPETITE!<br /><br />I hope you enjoy that recipe as much as I do, and now I'll leave you with this adorable photo of Roscoe, snug as a bug on five layers of blankets!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5112196426/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1437/5112196426_acf2d97c14.jpg"></a>Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-20781941119798988262010-10-13T14:45:00.004-04:002010-10-14T09:10:01.915-04:00Meatless MondaysI recently finished up a campaign assignment for <a href="http://www.ccad.edu" target="_blank">school</a>. The assignment was to think of an issue or cause important to you and create an ad/awareness campaign for it. I chose the topic of the extremely eco-unfriendly beef industry.<br /><br />Yes, I am a vegetarian, however, this campaign wasn't about trying to get others to stop eating meat. My goal concepting this campaign was simply to raise awareness of the amount of damage the beef industry has on the world through land usage, water usage and gas production. And being that my target audience was meat eaters, I had to think of a way to get their attention. One path has been taken by PETA, the in-your-face "Meat is Murder" idea. I don't believe that is effective on anyone who doesn't already think that.<br /><br />I was referred to a website called <a href="http://www.meatlessmonday.com" target="_blank">Meatless Monday</a> which is a movement attempting to simply REDUCE the amount of meat eaten to better aid human health and the health of the planet overall. This is where my whole campaign took flight. I partnered up Meatless Monday and the North American Vegetarian Society (since I think most people won't even listen to what PETA has to say at this point) and created the following campaign:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079131862/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4132/5079131862_1dd6d5133b.jpg"></a><br />To best reach the demographic, a guerrilla campaign concept placing maroon "beef shirts" packaged similarly to products in the meat isle as a free give-away and attention getter.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079131942/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/5079131942_504c1d26f4.jpg"></a><br />Faux label to further blend in with the meat products on top of clear saranwrap. Copy gives reader a explanation of Meatless Mondays and their mission as well as some brief facts on why the beef industry is harmful.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5078539095/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4087/5078539095_d84046773e.jpg"></a><br />Detail of the T-Bone tag.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079131908/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4085/5079131908_3206df62ea.jpg"></a><br />Shirt among the beef products. Can you spot it? Hahah (it's a bit of a Where's Waldo!) Thanks to my roommate for being my accomplice on this photo shoot mission to Kroger.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079132056/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4148/5079132056_5845d18569.jpg"></a><br />To reach parts of our demographic that eat meat but may not be shopping at the grocer or are younger, Meatless Monday teams up with American Apparel to produce limited time "Beef Shirts" sold at their retail locations. This is a print ad featuring "The Beef Shirt" to be run in magazines like Nylon and Print.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079131976/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4045/5079131976_04e7df1fc8.jpg"></a><br />Deli isle pull for further demographic-contact. An item normally thrown away is now easily able to slip in the consumer's pocket so they may visit the website when they're home.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079132092/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4109/5079132092_79b3dca28c.jpg"></a><br />It's important when attempting to change behavioral patterns to give that person a helpful alternative. Here is a small book of meatless recipes that are all fairly easy to make. This book is available to order through MeatlessMonday.com for free and shipped through the mail.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5079132112/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4090/5079132112_9367f13074.jpg"></a><br />A simple layout, loose illustrations and hand-done typography keep Meatless Mondays friendly in the mind of the meat eater.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5078539315/in/photostream/" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/5078539315_84f4350810.jpg"></a><br /><br />There were two other ads in this campaign that I will revisit during winter break. I think the booklet could use some work as well, color tweaks to relate a little better to the heavy maroon feeling of the beef shirt is something I'm considering. As always, I love feedback and critique!Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-41003764133990321972010-10-05T01:42:00.004-04:002010-10-05T02:07:28.595-04:00Weekend of Updates and Loves<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/5053009625/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4087/5053009625_91acb3e7c2.jpg"></a><br /><br />Painted the not-so-sunny-sun-room.

This room has no closet and is already pretty small so I knew I was going to have to be crafty to get all the things I wanted in this room while still being functional and maintaining an eye pleasing look. Being that the walls are already a dark charcoal gray I decided to sell my dark wood dresser and get a <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90053923">smaller white dresser</a> from Ikea. Also, I needed somewhere to hang my clothes that can't be folded. I found <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90121762">a nice solution</a> in white, also from Ikea. I didn't have a bed frame yet so while I was there, I picked up <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/80185066">this cute little number</a>. Nice and cheap and simple lines. Also a light color to keep the room airy. When I first arranged the room I had the bed crammed up in a corner against a wall with no room for any endtables so I got two of <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10175810">these hanging exposed light bulbs</a> to hang over each pillow to act as a "bedside light".<br /><br />But even with the light furniture and curtains, the room was still uncomfortable and felt very much like a boys dorm room with my black comforter and awkward furniture arrangement. I didn't have a lot of space to work with and had quite a bit of furniture in the room but I was determined to make this room feel more like a grown up girl's room rather than the sports den it felt like.<br /><br />Que in the makeover! it kind of struck me one day that I could arrange the room in a different way, it would be tight but probably doable. Once something is in my head like that I have to try it. The very first thing I did when I got home was try the new arrangement. At first, I didn't know if I liked it, but the more I realized the room is just freakin small, there isn't anything I can do to hide or fix that I realized this would be a much more convenient arrangement. <br /><br />So far I've found two really cheap chairs that were sturdy and just needed some love. I've refinished them and am using them as entables.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4937725111/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4134/4937725111_f697edef54.jpg"></a></center><br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4937733453/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4139/4937733453_7d3ffb0bc6.jpg"></a></center><br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4938318430/sizes/m/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4115/4938318430_4850abfff8.jpg"></a></center><br /><br />I think the Ikea furniture is great and simple but needs a little something special so I found <a href="http://www.homedepot.com/Tools-Hardware-Cabinet-Hardware-Pulls/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xkdZargu/R-100174051/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053">these great pulls</a> at Home Depot. I think they really help the Anedoba feel a little more grown up and girly.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4937739021/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4097/4937739021_35b7715826.jpg"></a></center><br /><br />The icing on the cake really is, for me, the bedspread I found at target. I was dying to try and find a sturdy, quilt-like spread, that could withstand the wear and tear my dog was going to put it through. This beautiful creation by Target really did the trick. <a href="http://www.target.com/DwellStudio-Target-Mandala-Bedding-Collection/dp/B002W8KL70/ref=br_1_13?ie=UTF8&id=DwellStudio%20Target%20Mandala%20Bedding%20Collection&node=14122401&searchSize=30&searchView=list&searchPage=1&sr=1-13&qid=1283099003&rh=&searchBinNameList=subjectbin%2Cprice%2Ctarget_com_primary_color-bin%2Ctarget_com_size-bin%2Ctarget_com_brand-bin&searchRank=salesrank&frombrowse=1">A graphic floral pattern in gray and yellow</a> was just the bright dash of sunshine this room needed.

This table has been with my family for a long-long time and I thought it was about time, it got a little love.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4937715205/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4116/4937715205_cfe18231f2.jpg" width="393" height="295"></a></center><br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4938314594/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4078/4938314594_f1861bbea6.jpg"></a></center><br /><br />So far, Roscoe seems to be loving it just fine!

Well it's actually proven to be a lot of a fun and a great idea! Most people spend a lot of time deciding on a tile backlash that's right for them. Me, I can change it as I see fit. And being as indecisive as I am, it's a great option. So far we've had monsters, candy land stripes, and as of tonight, there are chevron block prints. Awesomeness!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4740880416/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4095/4740880416_0836ee0e64_b.jpg" width="393" height="295" border="0"></a>Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-46529829576336453172010-06-23T16:10:00.002-04:002010-06-23T16:17:59.809-04:00Quick Kitchen Jar DIY<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4727457655/in/photostream/"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1332/4727457655_6f8e0fef7a_b.jpg" width="393" height="295" border="0"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4728105834/"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1232/4728105834_ce13189fb4_b.jpg" width="393" height="295" border="0"></a><br /><br />I did this a couple weeks ago to help my spice/random boxed food situation in my pantry. I go through cereal, rice and spices like it's my job so I buy in bulk and big "family sizes" so that leads to some stale rice and cornflakes. No good. So I bought these jars from Ikea a couple months ago and they sat in my trunk for a WHILE. Finally I got to them and took out the remaining chalkboard paint I had from painting my kitchen walls. This was the result.<br /><br />I'm really happy with them except for when I accidentally smudge the chalk which is really more of a problem for the spices than the obvious. But this lets them be very versatile and I can change their uses anytime.Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-27192865538311560782010-06-07T18:46:00.003-04:002010-06-07T19:00:22.940-04:00Bathroom Finish... for now.Finished up the bathroom/dressing room last week. I still need to make/buy/hang art and I'd still like to get a <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30184045" target="_blank">stool from Ikea</a> and a new hamper.<br /><br /><a href="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1297/4679783973_9c86e0aac4_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1297/4679783973_9c86e0aac4_b.jpg" width="393" height="524" border="0"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/4679782621_5342950b93_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4039/4679782621_5342950b93_b.jpg" width="393" height="524" border="0"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/4680418052_4b03820b67_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4066/4680418052_4b03820b67_b.jpg" width="393" height="177" border="0"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4679787117_91b61a0df1_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4041/4679787117_91b61a0df1_b.jpg" width="393" height="295" border="0"></a><br /><br />Honestly, painting the bathroom was the most painful experience of fixing up my apartment thus far. Just working my shower schedule around the paint drying process was DEATH. But I'm really happy with the way it turned out and I think that it makes a VERY small bathroom look as spacious as possible as well as gives it a more modern appeal.Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-85427873364288577622010-05-29T15:53:00.004-04:002010-05-29T16:24:36.595-04:00CCAD Student HandbookHiya all! My lack of updates are coming from my crazy busy life as of late. My <a href="http://tyrassic.blogspot.com/">boyfriend</a> just left Friday morning for his summer internship with Jim Henson's New York Creature Shop. Preparing for that and working full time at work and starting my new internship with <a href="http://iglooletterpress.com/">Igloo Letterpress</a> has left me with little time to get on here and update. But here I am!<br /><br />This past week, work has been kind of crazy finalizing changes for the <a href="http://www.ccad.edu">CCAD</a> Viewbook, getting that press ready and quick last minute changes. In addition, I've been working on a concept for the new Student Handbook/Planner. The current version is a horrible, 6"x6", thick, spiral-bound booklet with bad graphics and type. The version I proposed (and got approved) is a 6.5"x9", saddle-stitch book with craft paper cover and completely new layout. Sorry for the crummy mock-up shots but our office is in a basement and the paper we print on is crap-<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4650923192_a8391998bd_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4003/4650923192_a8391998bd_b.jpg" width="393" height="287"></a><br />Cover: blank craft paper for students to sketch on (since they'll do it anyways).<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4650922714_ca2b1b2946_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4650922714_ca2b1b2946_b.jpg" width="393" height="287"></a><br />Semester Schedule Block Spread.<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4650305027_8127892ae5_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4013/4650305027_8127892ae5_b.jpg" width="393" height="287"></a><br />Left lists dates, days of the week, as well as important events. Right is blank grid area to sketch, thumbnail, or draw mental notes.<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4014/4650922518_93f2c2dfbf_b.jpg"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4014/4650922518_93f2c2dfbf_b.jpg" width="393" height="287"></a><br />Back cover has a tab 3.25" wide with year at a glance that can function as a bookmark/placeholder.<br /><br />Thanks to all my CCAD comrades who helped me with the research and feedback of this process. Just have to get it done now! Hahha looking forward to seeing it printed and being used by the students!Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-2311184462869647122010-05-13T21:53:00.008-04:002010-05-13T22:12:41.325-04:00Summer Time!Finally! As of 12:20pm tomorrow, it will be summer vacation! I'm already cracking on my apartment fixins. Now, I'm attackin' the second floor which consists of our <i>very</i> tiny bathroom and the second bedroom with two closets we've made into one big "master closet" or the dressing room as we call it.<br /><br />Today I'm posting on mostly the bathroom, though I'm working on them kind of simultaneously.<br /><br /><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1008/4605576862_38552afe12_o.png"><br /><br /><a href="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1341/4605577102_0213f1e83d_o.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1341/4605577102_0213f1e83d_o.gif" width="393" height="273" border="0"></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/4604961609_047554d260_o.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/4604961609_047554d260_o.gif" width="393" height="306" border="0"></a><br /><br />Stay tuned for dressing room plans and finished photos!Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-66568137732402784832010-04-18T18:30:00.008-04:002010-04-18T21:15:21.796-04:00Hatch Show PrintHere is my finished Hatch Project.

I was responisble for the "LOVE" posters around campus at the beginning of the semester. I know a lot of people were confused by them so I want to kind of explain the process behind them. CCAD's admissions department was in need of new tour guides "Admissions Ambassadors", and they needed to recruit a special kind of student. Through brainstorming we pinned down the main characteristic of an Admissions Ambassador as someone who really loves CCAD. Someone who would speak highly of the school and everything it has to offer. We knew this would have to be a mini-campaign to recruit.<br /><br />Further meetings and brainstorming sessions hit on topics like, What Stands Out in a School Full of Posters? My solution was clean design that only said as much as it HAD to, and BOLD graphic prints with simple type treatments. "LOVE" just seemed like a good idea. To further get people's attention, Admissions thought it would be a good idea to have each poster be a little different and to put them up one-per-day.<br /><br />There was also a need for something to give to students hand picked by admissions like, RA's, orientation leaders, etc. So we came up with the idea of a hang tag to go on some special cookies. Kind of like a gift. If someone gave me cookies to try for a job, I'd definitely go to that informational meeting. Just sayin'.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4421438590/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4015/4421438590_2893d56fce_o.gif" width="407" height="629"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4420672993/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2749/4420672993_b9ce1207fa_o.gif" width="407" height="629"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4420672925/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4005/4420672925_cd8652a992_o.gif" width="407" height="629"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4421438406/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2727/4421438406_9a4d05f923_o.gif" width="407" height="629"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4421438628/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4053/4421438628_ba16712efd_o.gif"></a><br /><br />Anywho, this is how it turned out.

Myself and two other designers were asked to concept some ideas for CCAD's Honor's Program. Mine was the idea chosen and I thought I'd share some of it with you.<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4058/4401517145_29a409e477_o.png"><br />Logo with full color, b&w, and spot color application.<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/4401517049_f9fc22e92d_o.png"><br />Poster application.<br /><br /><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4008/4401517075_49ce3af1e9_o.png"><br />Form application.<br /><br /><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2691/4401517109_56b4c1f208_o.png"><br />Tshirt design proposal.<br /><br />So far it's been a pretty fun project to work on.

I'm not sure how much I'm actually allowed to show before it goes to press so I'll just post some unfinished works.<br /><br />First up is a spread I'm doing for the <a href="http://www.ccad.edu">CCAD</a> Viewbook. The Viewbook is a publication sent out to prospective students to showcase what the school is all about. Pretty important piece. This spread is designed to convey the intimate atmosphere of <a href="http://www.ccad.edu">CCAD</a>. I took our campus buildings and drew them in illustrator, then printed them, cut them out and had our wonderful photographer take a shot of them.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4397869179/sizes/o/"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4397869179_fb32e8b746.jpg" border="0"></a><br />Photo Credit: Pei-Yin Chen<br /><br />I'll be posting more work throughout the week as well as my finished West Elm Catalog.Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-6000777922592132792010-02-24T16:40:00.003-05:002010-02-24T16:57:21.268-05:00BloglandI was recently asked to name my top 5 favorite blogs to read.

I love snow. Originally, I'm from Cleveland, Ohio which gets a pretty fair amount of snow each winter. Moving to Columbus is a bit of a change considering we never really get any substantial snowfall at all. We finally got hit with some snow the last couple days and it's created quite the frenzy down here. I guess Columbians just aren't used to it snowing. But me, the Clevelander, will simply relish in it.<br /><br /><a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2800/4346727245_bf7efcd920_o.jpg"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2800/4346727245_bf7efcd920_o.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />My dog, Roscoe and I played for a bit outside before I had to come back indoors and attack the dreadful homework gobblins waiting for me in the basement.

The normal, sleepless routine. Thankfully I had a wonderful (short) break. And I am proud to say I barely touched my computer. Instead I took the opportunity to work with my hands for a while.<br /><br />I started fixing up my apartment. I; made new curtains, painted three rooms (one of those rooms I painted twice), I made two trips to <a href="http://www.ikea.com/">Ikea</a> in Cincinnati for various things, built a <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pretendercrazy/4156254686/sizes/o/">faux fireplace out of an old headboard</a> and refinished some chairs (pictures to come later I suppose).<br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4047/4336781336_06ce29728e_o.jpg"><img style="width: 404px; height: 244px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4047/4336781336_06ce29728e_o.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4336035549_23a682cf9a_o.jpg"><img style="width: 405px; height: 281px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4002/4336035549_23a682cf9a_o.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4336035497_5e1c1639ac_o.jpg"><img style="width: 404px; height: 269px;" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4336035497_5e1c1639ac_o.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />It would be a life goal to get on <a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/">Design*Sponge</a> or <a href="http://apartmenttherapy.com/">Apartment Therapy</a> someday!Justinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970775706015806150noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5420852069212618983.post-72261134484713698652009-12-13T11:04:00.005-05:002009-12-13T11:15:09.015-05:00Two recent finalsHere are two of my last finals. I had one more huge final project but unfortunately I'm contractually unable to show it at this time. Keep your fingers crossed that something good comes out of that!<br /><br />First up is my Ad/Graph sub brand final. The objective of the assignment was to image a sub brand camping company to any existing company and come up with branding, logo, launch ads and some sort of packaging for a chosen camping related product. My brand was designed to be a sub brand to Pottery Barn Kids and is titled Kakuee. A large part of my launch ad branding was the idea of children's imaginations and the ability young minds have to see a reality of their own anywhere. This project still needs tweaking but this is what was turned it. I feel so so about it.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL8ZfsYPsLzb1Kn1Ka7JJ3QRUsobov5c9AkNUrj3rdfaUfW0THIWKJAWcNpTYfJDW30KzhoKU4NMok2KGcaGU9EZjQ2ZekREKQBiYTYrsU97-CD-9mwi09OpFcyA7meGDLbaDVqorfFmad/s1600-h/kakuee.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 367px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgL8ZfsYPsLzb1Kn1Ka7JJ3QRUsobov5c9AkNUrj3rdfaUfW0THIWKJAWcNpTYfJDW30KzhoKU4NMok2KGcaGU9EZjQ2ZekREKQBiYTYrsU97-CD-9mwi09OpFcyA7meGDLbaDVqorfFmad/s400/kakuee.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414753330197353602" border="0" /></a><br />The second project is one of two finals I was working on for my packaging design class. The assignment was to create a soap decide how much it would cost, what materials it would be made of, and how it would be packaged. I came up with one idea which my teacher thought "boring" so I went to a different idea and decided to finish my first idea up at a later time. Here is what I turned it. "Debutant Soap" for girls of any age. The soap is clear and in the mold of a diamond (which I painstakingly carved by hand). It's inset in a holster on the inside of the box. The exterior of the box is the abstracted cuts a diamond possesses. Simple geometric shapes will stand off the shelves against the cluster-fuck of all the other soap packaging.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsW24O-0A6RDK3cnDYSe3RxQQI3sxpUlJNhECsdO9gyMGYbRwfwhr_kumz6mlJFbRjjTM_9wOPhfMfSMNjl0E8BuqBG9YjhqqE5jbMut0sKCSzKIIGf8nnQvgRqWdBEdxITuw1Q4HUZI65/s1600-h/diamondpackage.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 245px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsW24O-0A6RDK3cnDYSe3RxQQI3sxpUlJNhECsdO9gyMGYbRwfwhr_kumz6mlJFbRjjTM_9wOPhfMfSMNjl0E8BuqBG9YjhqqE5jbMut0sKCSzKIIGf8nnQvgRqWdBEdxITuw1Q4HUZI65/s400/diamondpackage.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414754334826498066" border="0" /></a>Like I said, I'd like to be able to to show you my Web II final project that I've been coding for the past month but I probably won't be able to show that for a few months if one of my designs is chosen or up to a year and a half if it's not.<br /><br />Thankfully, it's break and although I'll be working a little bit, I am going to have a lot of time to work on my own project. I hope to touch my computer very little over break other than to read my favorite blogs, tweet and check my email. Tyler and I will be painting the living and bed rooms today.
