This was a proposed brand system for American Agricultural Insurance Company (AAIC).
Inspired by expansion and growth, this concept emphasizes AAIC’s global reach and high level of innovative service. The abstract form nods to AAIC’s agricultural roots, while the dynamic and memorable execution feels fresh and allows the brand to stand out. A modern color palette paired with a geometric, sans-serif typeface makes this mark bold and trustworthy.

This was a proposed solution for packaging and web design for Della Terra Pasta, and is not to be associated with the company.
The concept is based on the translation of the company name, “of the earth”. In nearly every culture, the mandala, a circular, geometric pattern made up of smaller shapes, is used in one form or another as a symbol of connection with the earth, universe, cosmos, etc. In relation, pasta is eaten all over the world in various forms. Creating mandalas from pasta shapes symbolizes how pasta connects us to each other, and the earth.

This was a project for a package design class that required us to create packaging for a set of 15 chocolate bars and a container, based off of a series of 15 questions.
The concept for this project is inspired by alternate realities and string theory—the idea that we could have a multitude of alternate selves existing in other dimensions. Each chocolate box poses a question, while a slip inside reveals an exciting answer from your alter ego.
