ROLE: ART DIRECTOR, DESIGNER

The thesis/capstone exhibitions, which open in May and continue through the summer, are the culminating events of the New York School of Interior Design's academic year, and give graduating students an opportunity to show their work to industry leaders and to the public. The advertising posters must have visual impact and provide essential information but can’t compete with the work on view.

My solution to this challenge was to pair the text with duotone images from the previous year’s openings in a tint of the College’s signature color. The resulting compositions, distinctive and powerful yet unified and resolved, complement the projects instead of diverting attention away from them.
