Aesop My Little Fabric Flyer

This is a lovely flyer designed by a French artist about an workshop that will help people better understand herbs and aromas.

I found the design really simple but greatly conveyed the ideas of an aroma shop. The flowers behind the information provided a clear meaning of the workshop. The transparency in the white shape worked very well with the flower behind. I really enjoyed this design. It's simply, probably wont take much time to finish. But the layout is really nice.

Energize Magazine


This magazine design was designed by Metaklinika design studio from, Belgrade, Serbia. This issue was about all the new energy sources that are available and their efficiency. 

I personally love the internal design better than the cover because the layout really gave me the feeling of those clean energy. The colored background also warmed up the design and made it not so mechanical and cold. In general, this was a professional design, not much of crazy design going on, but really nice layouts.

Bistronome grocery and deli

This is a personal project created by Serge Vasil. Since we are doing the cook book. I thought this would be a great reference. I enjoyed the clean design, and the layout of the types and photos. I think shooting those photo from right above is really a great idea to showcase the food. I especially enjoyed the red line under some of the images to create emphasis on the texts below it.

Nya Upplagan Magazine

The above designs were from Swedish designers Marcus Garde, and Linnea Bach Garde. They made up the company called Bach Barde in Stockholm. The above images were from their own magzines from 2010 to 2013.

I enjoy their design a lot, especially the color choices. It's modern and subtle. I like the transparency those colors created. They are all from the primary colors, red, yellow and blue. But the combinations made them look different. These are really nice design in my perspective.

Architectural Conference Brochure Design


I enjoy this brochure design very much. The water colors work greatly in this design, so does the overall layout. I love how the designer arrange those triangles and cut them right off the edge. The cover and back are elegantly simple. I feel very comfortable to look at a design like this. It's so clean and simple.
