Monday, June 30, 2014. As I showed you last month. A recent project I worked on was a new brochure that helps new staff present a case for InterVarsity's ministry on campus to new/potential donors. I showed you my first pencil sketch draft last month, and here's the final product! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Welcome to La Raison d'Être! View my complete profile.

la raison d'être: Reflections on Leadership
http://la-raison.blogspot.com/2012/05/reflections-on-leadership.html
Wednesday, May 16, 2012. Coming off a trip to southern California to attend the Asian Pacific Islander Women's Leadership Conference. I've been reflecting a lot on what it means for me to be a leader. I share these honest, inconclusive thoughts with you in hopes that you will get a glimpse of what God is doing in my life. A banner I designed for APIWLC. Calling myself a leader in my current role feels like a bit of a stretch. Several times throughout the conference, we were reminded that God created us i...

la raison d'être: Upcoming Notecards
http://la-raison.blogspot.com/2014/09/upcoming-notecards.html
Tuesday, September 30, 2014. One of the smaller and sometimes more fun things we get to do is design new InterVarsity-branded notecards that our staff can use. Most of the time these are Thank You cards used to send to ministry partners. But we also produce Christmas cards and Invitation cards. Here are a couple I've designed recently that will be printed soon! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to La Raison d'Être! View my complete profile. Give to Laura's ministry.

la raison d'être: Unsexy, but Important
http://la-raison.blogspot.com/2015/03/unsexy-but-important.html
Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Unsexy, but Important. Normally I like to share about projects I'm working on that are directly related to student ministry because it's easier to communicate how my job connects with transforming lives with the Gospel. However, over the past few months and in the coming months, there's one major project I'm working on that, well, in so many words, is unsexy. A glimpse at my work flow for the new Black Campus Ministries logo. Despite the decidedly unsexiness of my current work,...

la raison d'être: Compelling 2012 - Dream On
http://la-raison.blogspot.com/2012/10/compelling-2012-dream-on.html
Monday, October 29, 2012. Compelling 2012 - Dream On. This title led me to find some of my inspiration from 1970s rock posters. I love the way these posters use dramatic shapes and have a sort of psychedelic look to them. In a way, they are kind of dreamlike. Slightly distorted and ethereal. I also love the way that the typography takes the form of the larger shapes in the design. Inspired by 1970s rock posters. Inspired by Egyptian art. Inspired by Egyptian geometric designs. Which I also designed) here.

Friday, July 17, 2015. The Elusive Brand Book. I've been wanting to share this for quite some time but I haven't felt like I was allowed to. Well, we're on the cusp of releasing an intitial working draft of the Brand Book, so I think it is safe to show you a few sample pages! These pages help define the InterVarsity logo and the proper ways to use it. In my years of working as a designer for InterVarsity, I've seen all sorts of ways the logo has been used (or not used at all! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Wednesday, July 16, 2014. The Young People Get It! Photo Credit: Melissa Montecuollo. As I have done for the past few years, I presented at our annual Orientation for New Staff conference (ONS) to talk about branding and design. This year, however, we introduced a new interactive component to the talk, giving new staff some time to create their own fake prayer letter using a variety of options (photos, captions, headlines, etc.). Staff were given 3-4 options for each of these elements of a prayer letter,.
