Order + Expression is a design portfolio completed

at the Academy of Art University's School of Graphic

Design. It showcases a cross section of my work

during my years studying at the Academy. The title

references my personal philosophy of the design

process. To me those two words describe both my

personal design process & successful design in

general. Design begins with organizing information

and ends with expressing that information in its

most essential form. Great design analyzes and

breaks down information so that it can be rebuilt

into the purest and most appropriate visualization

of an idea. Please enjoy.

To rebrand the United Kingdom’s largest and most iconic taxi cab company in a

fresh and exciting way while retaining the most recognizable parts of the brand

and creating universal appeal for U.K consumers.

For the logo, I came to the conclusion that the most appropriate option was

to create a word mark within a simple banner. By choosing a contemporary type-

face that nods to classic typography, the brand is given a strong, contemporary

look without sacrificing the classic feeling that is so integral to the brand.

Because I also wanted to bring in a graphic element that related to classic Brit-

ish culture, I decided to make a clean, and graphic interpretation of the kind of

banner that is seen everywhere in the U.K. from pubs, to coats of arms. I believe

that these choices create a feeling that is indebted to classic British style while

introducing a bold, contemporary edge to the Black Cab brand.

This project was about showcasing the various philanthropic & environmental

efforts that the Levis corporation is engaged in including fighting AIDS in Africa,

fair labor practice & environmental responsibility.

Levis is widely regarded as one of the most socially responsible and forward

thinking American companies. They take an extraordinary amount of pride in

that fact and use it in their public image. One of the biggest things that they

do to inform people of their efforts is publishing an annual corporate social

responsibility report and accompanying website. In designing the 2010 report,

I decided that a very strong and bold typographic treatment, coupled with a

black and white, vintage documentary photographic style would best highlight

the topic. Keeping in line with what Levis is known for, the aesthetic I created is

youthful & modern with nods to the rich history of the iconic American brand.

Designer _ kristopher leighOrder + Expression

To design a line of skin care products for the casual clothing company Uniqlo.

The design needs to stay within the established visual language of Uniqlo while

also stretching it in a new direction appropriate for skin care.

Specs _

Objective _

Solution _

The visual language of Uniqlo is very recognizable and carries with it a great

amount of cultural credibility. It is highly respected across the world from fash-

ionable cities like it's home city of Tokyo to New York City, where the brand has

become very popular in recent years. I decided to maintain the brand equity of

the color red and the typeface Din, while adding a pearlescent white sheen and

complimentary turquoise. The logo stayed within the Uniqlo aesthetic but ac-

centuated the letter "U" to reinforce the idea of skin care as a personal product.

Breaking away from the square geometry in much of Uniqlo's design, I added a

circle to create a soft feel that reflects the intimate feeling of skin care products.

To create a magazine and poster series to promote a series of TED talks on the

subject of synesthesia; a little understood neurological disorder that cross-

wires sensory perception, allowing people to “see” sounds etc.

In creating visuals for a subject as technical and scientific as synesthesia, it

is essential to present the information in a way that engages the viewer rather

than drowning them in a sea of jargon. I accomplished this is a variety of ways.

One way was by using quotes pulled from various notable figures who had

synesthesia including Vladamir Nobakov and Duke Ellington. These enigmatic

quotes draw the audience into the synesthetic experience. The accompanying

graphics emphasize the point. Bright yet sophisticated colors were chosen as

another way to underscore the sensation of synesthetic experience. Graphic &

engaging diagrams also conveyed the complex information in a digestible form.

To create a variety of packaging as well as an original identity for the Chicago

based micro-brewery, Revolution. The work needs to be striking and powerful to

carve a niche for itself in the beer packaging marketplace.

The inspiration for the Revolution design came primarily from the Logan Square

neighborhood in Chicago where the Revolution brewery and restaurant is

based. After engaging in discussions with the owner, it became apparent that

Revolution was not only a quintessentially Chicago brand but also could be seen

as sophisticated enough to compete with the best breweries in the world. The

“Revolution” typeface was chosen as an homage to the typography seen

everywhere in the bodegas of the primarily Hispanic neighborhood while the

other typeface were chosen for their sophistication and impact. The blue color,

taken from the Chicago flag is juxtaposed with a striking gold foil and rich black.

To redesign a common household product to be more sustainable and then

design a book, logo, and poster to promote the new product. The product that I

chose to redesign was the common household lamp.

My lamp redesign involved rethinking the lamp from the ground up. This involved

inventing a lamp shade made entirely out of recycled plastic bags, a base made

of reclaimed wood from demolished homes & utilizing cutting edge L.E.D light

bulbs. The book design is divided in chapters about the history of the lamp,

the negative environmental effects of plastic bags and unnecessary energy

consumption, & the lamp redesign. The aesthetic is editorial in the photography

choice & classic typography but is pushed into a more intimate direction by us-

ing hand-drawn type & a paper stock that looks & feels similar to newsprint. It

reflects both the environmental message & D.I.Y nature of the lamp redesign.

To design a variety of promotional materials for Mohawk Synergy paper. The de-

sign needs to successfully showcase Synergy paper and also maintain audience

interest with a provocative subject matter.

As something that profoundly effects us every day in ways that are not always

immediately visible, urban planning and suburban sprawl has been an interest

of mine for a long time. As I researched the notion of synergy for this project, the

opportunity to explore this idea presented itself; suburban sprawl represents

the opposite of synergy. Sprawl is defined as the spreading outwards of a city

and its suburbs to low density & auto dependent rural land. High segregation of

uses (e.g. stores and residential), & various design features that encourage car

dependence are symptoms of sprawl. The book explores the many negative ef-

fects of sprawl on the environment and the physical / mental health of citizens

living in sprawling cities & also shows encouraging examples of urban planning.

To create a variety of packaging for the Coscto private label Savoy; makers of

high-end, high-quality cookware that is targeted towards a more sophisticated

consumer with a higher price point.

To create packaging for such a high-end and product, it was essential that the

design was sophisticated and beautiful enough to justify the cost. A consumer

buying Savoy cookware is not only buying a piece that they will likely have for

many years, but they are also purchasing the experience of feeling like a world

class chef themselves. By creating a product endorsed by world class French

chef Guy Savoy and accentuating the beauty of the product with sumptuous

photography & sophisticated colors / typography, consumers would feel as if

they are buying something special. Silver foils matched with rich eggplant and

vivid goldenrod give the design a powerful feeling of class.

To create a variety of packaging for the Coscto private label Bravado; makers of

high quality coffee blends and coffee related products from around the world

that is targeted towards coffee connoisseurs on a budget.

The most important aspects of the Bravado coffee brand is that they make a

product that is delicious, international, and authentic; all things that our target

audience would look for in a coffee product. To fully appeal to our demographic,

the packaging played up the characteristics of the product that made it

stand out including the roasting date, the specific farm and region where it was

grown, the altitude at which it was grown and even the name of the family that

produced it. Highly descriptive text was added to entice the consumer and give

them the feeling that they were buying something that is a cut above. Visual

cues were taken from classic Italian coffeehouses and culture.

Our goal for this project was to design a cohesive, instantly identifiable, and

flexible packaging system for a wide variety of products produced by Costco's

in-house brand Kirkland including; home essentials, bath, decor and food.

By using a consistent yet flexible logo mark, paired with a specific color palette

and typographic language that changes in each section of the Kirkland brand,

we created packaging that is clearly identifiable as being from the same family

yet also has individual visual styles. Great care was taken to create visual lan-

guages that were appropriate for the products being sold and spoke to a variety

of audiences that would shop at Costco. For example, the home decor products

have a fun and inviting style that is targeted toward a younger audience while

the home essentials products exude a cleanliness and simplicity appropriate

for products like detergent and disinfectant spray.

Thank You _

Mom & Dad for always supporting me. Eleanor for

being there for me. All my friends from Chicago to

San Francisco. Mary Scott for guiding me in the

process of making this book. Thomas McNulty for

supporting me through so many identity & packag-

ing projects. Scott Rankin for giving me my first

formal introduction to design. Christine George for

introducing me to the world of packaging. Michael

Osbourne for solidifying my love of packaging &

teaching me about the art of collaboration. Allen

Gaoiran for the always intelligent and thoughtful

critiques. Jennifer Sterling for starting me on what

I am sure will be a lifelong obsession with typogra-

phy. Tom Sieu for opening my eyes to what design

can really do. Thank you everybody.
