Emily Carr 4th Year Design Series - Briana Garelli

This week’s featured ECUAD student work is by Briana Garelli. "My Unborn Daughter" is a hybrid novel written by Jesus Ambriz. A hybrid novel explores literary content by making it visually engaging, expressive and challenging to the reader. The goal of this project was to create a piece that innovated and challenged the conventions of print design in literature, reflecting the potential of print design in the collaboration between writers and designers.

Emily Carr 4th Year Design Series - Max Olson

Once again, FAC would like to share a select series of student work from Don and Tak’s 4th Year Core Studio class this past Fall at the Emily Carr University of Art and Design.

4th year student Max Olson has created a contemporary brand identity design and signage system for MOCA Calgary, (the Museum of Contemporary Art Calgary). The main challenges were to elevate the public profile of MOCA and facilitate the museum's model of setting up a variety of smaller gallery venues throughout the city. The solution was to provide the museum with a flexible kit of elements that could be used to create a vast set of deliverables unique to the featured art and specific venue. In the end, Max found the time to create marketing material, office collateral, a flexible signage system for exterior applications as well as a functional Wordpress website.
