My portfolio
Welcome to my portfolio! Ever since my early childhood my passion in life has been designing and creating art of all kinds. As a kid I was making video game maps to games such as Warcraft III and Crysis and now as an adult I am an aspiring UI/UX/Artist/Web Designer/media producer. Here you will find the latest additions my collection of versatile designs. The works here range from web design, web development and physical printed products to anything in between.
My design philosophy
VISUAL STIMULATION
My works are artistically and aesthetically pleasing.
USER EXPERIENCE
My designs are done with user experience in mind.
DESIGN INNOVATION
My works are always done with up to date technology.
The result
JTT 2022 print course thesis
Below is a magazine I designed and printed late 2022 in StadinAO media-school. It is a relative small, but jack-packed with information, 16-pages long booklet/catalog about the most popular classical planets in our solar system.
Universumi magazine
Magazine front cover
This is the front cover of the magazine. It covers the classical and modern ten planets (Sun and Moon not actually being plantes) starting from the Sun, then Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Pluto, the celestial wanderers on their cosmic commute and their corresponding symbols on a chart. Their spherical forms add depth to my magazine's design, reminding us of our place in the grand cosmic ballet. The cover was designed and made in Adobe Illustrator™.
Magazine back cover
This is the back cover of the magazine. A backdrop that sets the stage, a velvety expanse adorned with countless stars and hues shifting from dark blues to passionate purples. The vastness of space and the stars' luminous glow on a darker background sets the tone . I designed the cover by leaving out the graphics of the font cover and having the remainder of the graphics of space only and a barcode vector for stylish reasons. The back cover as well was designed and made in Adobe Illustrator™.
Magazine page spread
This is a spread from the pages four and five of the final printed product. It contains an introduction to astronomy containing some basic information about astronomy and about the division of the celestial bodies info so called "modern" and "classical" planets. All the graphics seen here were designed and done by me, except for the starry sky, planets and Neptune which were taken from an image bank (CC).
The magazine's graphics were done in Adobe Illustrator™ and the magazine itself and it's text were done in Adobe InDesign™.
Finally the magazine was printed as a physical copy.
