Art direction and principal designer for Legal Aid’s Disaster Relief Program’s resource library system. Designed for rapid visual navigation during natural disasters, this system utilizes an empathetic, minimalist aesthetic and a high-utility color ratio palette to help vulnerable communities quickly find critical legal aid.
This signage system solves a classic studio problem: delivering high-visibility safety and organizational instructions in a messy, high-traffic environment.
Designed strictly in high-contrast black and white, the posters rely on bold, repetitive typography and gritty, texture-driven graphics to capture immediate attention. The true utility of the design lies in its production strategy. By printing the monochrome files onto vibrant, color-coded paper stock and laminating the final sheets, the studio achieves an incredibly durable, water-resistant, and cost-effective wayfinding system.
Each distinct zone—oxides, wax, glaze, spray, and tools—receives a dedicated color profile. This allows students to instantly identify specific workstations from across the room, improving studio safety, maintenance compliance, and workflow efficiency.

Designed for guided kayak tours on the Los Angeles River, this single-use waterproof bingo card transforms observation into play. Organized into five categories—Fauna, Flora, Be Here, Trash, and City—the card encourages participants to engage with the river’s overlapping natural and urban environments. Sightings are marked by hand with a punch, creating a physical record of each journey. Gothic blackletter typography and a serialized numbering system reference institutional ephemera, while the prompts draw attention to often-overlooked details, from floating consumer debris to native wildlife. FREE FLOAT occupies the center square, reinforcing the open-ended nature of exploration along the river.
