At the project's onset, the company enlisted help to brand the establishment and infuse it with a unique design language to appeal to the local artistic community. The initial focus was on designing the bookstore to help guide the branding of the café for a harmonious overall feel. Drawing inspiration from various sources like publishers, art, and design influences, we created a branding system using grid lines, and typography to inspire and imbue the space with a literary feeling. Cafe Momento, an extension of Point of View, adopted some branding elements while incorporating its own twist, featuring the same typeface with hand-drawn illustrations for a welcoming yet sophisticated feel. Both venues, Point of View and Café Momento, are now housed at PS 1200 in Fort Worth, Texas.The Team: Point of View Café MomentoCreative Team: Esther Miller Jeanette Ramirez <img width="3648" height="1848" width_o="3648" height_o="1848" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e6715822599db4dc7ab9b21f39055e1489c5a139b38beef922ef0215ce7c3686/El-Car-Wash-Brand-Guidelines-89-1.gif" data-mid="245751224" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e6715822599db4dc7ab9b21f39055e1489c5a139b38beef922ef0215ce7c3686/El-Car-Wash-Brand-Guidelines-89-1.gif" /><img width="1918" height="1080" width_o="1918" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e247135821c0f35588318331606c2bb503c19a99539d1b7768f786bd526d5438/Screenshot-2023-05-26-at-3.31-1.png" data-mid="214256794" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e247135821c0f35588318331606c2bb503c19a99539d1b7768f786bd526d5438/Screenshot-2023-05-26-at-3.31-1.png" /> &nbsp;

Born out of my own frustration with shopping for cannabis, Lettuce is designed to help introduce the cannabis lifestyle to new and curious customers. By combining cannabis education with product discovery we are the front door for cannabis. Furthermore, we encourage our customers to share their experience through social features and to take action with cannabis social justice causes. The hope is to make cannabis accessible and transport for new customers; or simply put, taking the “devil” out of the “devil’s lettuce.” 👬 Advisor:&nbsp;Felipe Guimarães Garcia <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fe953628e6b010418db65e7db23c26f110000fbff6d8b3257ca15154befc79c3/01_42822_LettuceCaseStudyV1.jpg" data-mid="141552779" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fe953628e6b010418db65e7db23c26f110000fbff6d8b3257ca15154befc79c3/01_42822_LettuceCaseStudyV1.jpg" /><img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6a5037b32cf39acc79aaa57a3a32badef450a448cd7dbf5c068eb6a138b1e42f/02_LettuceMockup.png" data-mid="141555511" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6a5037b32cf39acc79aaa57a3a32badef450a448cd7dbf5c068eb6a138b1e42f/02_LettuceMockup.png" /><img width="1910" height="1530" width_o="1910" height_o="1530" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b42a381fe21fdc00fafbfdf5d72211107baaefc3b2db5cac3bbeb9b82634bfe5/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.36.55-PM.png" data-mid="141555732" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b42a381fe21fdc00fafbfdf5d72211107baaefc3b2db5cac3bbeb9b82634bfe5/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.36.55-PM.png" /><img width="2100" height="1468" width_o="2100" height_o="1468" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/499fe1b072700cd8ccb9960e22f891504df8cb5301cd83b1582d0600eb700ef0/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.42.57-PM.png" data-mid="141556196" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/499fe1b072700cd8ccb9960e22f891504df8cb5301cd83b1582d0600eb700ef0/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.42.57-PM.png" /> <img width="600" height="600" width_o="600" height_o="600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e786062dd3f645eff74f3fe36d6a9917c89ad1dfb8966a4decf2ddcd7b776600/ezgif-2-2a20272be5.gif" data-mid="141667741" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/e786062dd3f645eff74f3fe36d6a9917c89ad1dfb8966a4decf2ddcd7b776600/ezgif-2-2a20272be5.gif" /> <img width="600" height="600" width_o="600" height_o="600" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8dc03e5ad57e7a61faa5de19fba5cd015c7f7407c88096500c35a284cd738bf7/ezgif-2-7ca616744d.gif" data-mid="141667795" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/8dc03e5ad57e7a61faa5de19fba5cd015c7f7407c88096500c35a284cd738bf7/ezgif-2-7ca616744d.gif" /> <img width="2152" height="3094" width_o="2152" height_o="3094" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a27dc72038ff0a3db169cfd5daab62035072353379d688e4ac57b9903f3f1004/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.43.56-PM.png" data-mid="141557565" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a27dc72038ff0a3db169cfd5daab62035072353379d688e4ac57b9903f3f1004/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.43.56-PM.png" /> <img width="1878" height="2666" width_o="1878" height_o="2666" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0f6e64033bf4f522311f32050e492726eac5780154711ee931afd954277d5d52/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.46.55-PM.png" data-mid="141557603" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0f6e64033bf4f522311f32050e492726eac5780154711ee931afd954277d5d52/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.46.55-PM.png" /> <img width="2264" height="1650" width_o="2264" height_o="1650" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/df4b63fe3b9bc4583c996073d3451aa4f9aeae962363e3c503a9bf05e0c9f78b/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.53.29-PM.png" data-mid="141558196" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/df4b63fe3b9bc4583c996073d3451aa4f9aeae962363e3c503a9bf05e0c9f78b/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.53.29-PM.png" /><img width="2092" height="1570" width_o="2092" height_o="1570" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e895b46693eb764092617e1548c2efaad90f587381bfe5f8751b3ef4aa54fd06/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.53.39-PM.png" data-mid="141558199" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e895b46693eb764092617e1548c2efaad90f587381bfe5f8751b3ef4aa54fd06/Screen-Shot-2022-05-03-at-2.53.39-PM.png" /> Credits:&nbsp; Steve: Kevin Delano Indie: Kat Quinones Filmed by: Elizabeth Pustinger Written and Directed by: Ezra Lee May 2022 Show & Tell https://ezradesignedthat.com/Show-Tell Mon, 12 Aug 2024 22:12:16 +0000 Ezra Lee's Portfolio https://ezradesignedthat.com/Show-Tell Show &amp; Tell In 2024, Ashley Seryn, a Los Angeles based photographer, teamed up with CAPE (Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment) to craft a unique zine that illuminates the essence of Asian excellence in entertainment. This collaborative project delves into the personal narratives of notable Asian figures in the industry, inviting them to share a cherished personal object and the profound story behind its significance. Through intimate portraits and compelling anecdotes, the zine captures the multifaceted identities and journeys of its subjects. Each participant offers a glimpse into their personal history, using their chosen object as a lens through which to reflect on heritage, passion, and the evolving landscape of Asian representation in entertainment. The design of the final project is meant to be minimal, ultimately highlighting the beautiful photography, but still allowing the stories of each participant to shine through.Creative Team:Photographer: Ashley SerynEdited by:&nbsp;Kaitlyn Deshon and Lisa Sumiko Steward <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2a034acc2e543be318d804b23c7dafcf9117fce0c7406b5ec6aaba038b2885bc/YG24-231511-006fba0549cf42a5e1c3322495e7b80a.jpg" data-mid="216259523" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2a034acc2e543be318d804b23c7dafcf9117fce0c7406b5ec6aaba038b2885bc/YG24-231511-006fba0549cf42a5e1c3322495e7b80a.jpg" /><img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b91bdc04eb4664a2f1172f619c9d99f6e25521332145621c37e21983d49b38c4/YG24-231511-5dd86f121999147c9cca8b8b4d95d9a0.gif" data-mid="216259641" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b91bdc04eb4664a2f1172f619c9d99f6e25521332145621c37e21983d49b38c4/YG24-231511-5dd86f121999147c9cca8b8b4d95d9a0.gif" /> <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/48042c16f6d45e227436a3e7fc54dd62e9ce2530a6aa23b6a0e55b073c33abf6/YG24-231511-fcd941015fe329433f69cc6f70d197d3.jpg" data-mid="216259518" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/48042c16f6d45e227436a3e7fc54dd62e9ce2530a6aa23b6a0e55b073c33abf6/YG24-231511-fcd941015fe329433f69cc6f70d197d3.jpg" /> <img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/83914cb11a481c27ffad3d5963a466a20b40ac6188ebf23570925abd5b8fd18e/YG24-231511-246f8efea0d96a596481bf2e2c3d481d.jpg" data-mid="216259638" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/83914cb11a481c27ffad3d5963a466a20b40ac6188ebf23570925abd5b8fd18e/YG24-231511-246f8efea0d96a596481bf2e2c3d481d.jpg" /><img width="4160" height="6240" width_o="4160" height_o="6240" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/561a23f5f6e089637833fa8aa77700ead4349ceaba55b158b87e4f1be72e34a2/YG24-231511-f0c2c7fdc710eb4b72ac0fa42dff99ba.jpg" data-mid="216259540" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/561a23f5f6e089637833fa8aa77700ead4349ceaba55b158b87e4f1be72e34a2/YG24-231511-f0c2c7fdc710eb4b72ac0fa42dff99ba.jpg" />May 2024 . &nbsp; &nbsp; For the Love of Design https://ezradesignedthat.com/For-the-Love-of-Design Thu, 14 Sep 2023 20:43:49 +0000 Ezra Lee's Portfolio https://ezradesignedthat.com/For-the-Love-of-Design For the Love of Design Steven Heller (Author, Designer, and Educator) commissioned me to design the cover and interior spreads for his new collection of essays entitled For The Love of Design. Heller challenged me to design a cover that showed an appreciation for graphic design without being too trendy. During the rounds of critiques, he challenged me to expand my inspiration to different eras of graphic design and think about what are the essential elements of communication. The end result is a design system that references the creative process and our ability as designers to adapt our process to the times we live in. I chose to use the motif of die line marks to reference the analog paste up creative process and juxtapose that with a super modern display typeface to ultimately suggest the timeless nature of graphic design.

We tackled this both conceptually and aesthetically with our core tag line being, “Think. Make. Do.” These words felt especially true after spending a year in the program and really learning and understanding how much time and effort goes into every project. As designers we do a lot of thinking and sketching, we then make and iterate, and finally we do. And by do, I mean we take our design out into the world and make positive change or impact.For our branding we wanted to create something ephemeral that highlighted the strength and resilience of graphic design, but most specifically, our MFA Design program. Our goal was to do something exciting and eye catching that would look great on print items as well as animated on screens. We landed on the idea of making fruit stickers because of how small yet significant they are. Apart from being really cute, fruit stickers tell us the origin of the fruit, give stores important batch information, and often times have personalized illustrations. While making our “MFAD Fruit Stickers” we wanted to add personality and flair to each of them. Every single sticker is unique and different, when you put them all together on a poster or booklet cover, they look even stronger — and since we are back in person after a year of online school, we are all together again feeling stronger than ever. The stickers and their differing design aesthetics, typography, and colors represent our diverse MFA Design program with our students being from different countries, backgrounds, and specialties. We are celebrating that sense of collaboration.🏆&nbsp; Winner: Graphis New Talent Silver Award👫 Partner: Emily Roemer <img width="3043" height="2236" width_o="3043" height_o="2236" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/64b1af0c729fd0244b88974e43a92f27a0179f99afc7a227b53b50e5871eea3e/EE_SVA-00.jpg" data-mid="141552291" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/64b1af0c729fd0244b88974e43a92f27a0179f99afc7a227b53b50e5871eea3e/EE_SVA-00.jpg" /><img width="3278" height="2236" width_o="3278" height_o="2236" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a2a536410f5fccb0375ac4591bad4c175e9d8717397ea67fa81e581f084d6613/EE_SVA-01.jpg" data-mid="141552361" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a2a536410f5fccb0375ac4591bad4c175e9d8717397ea67fa81e581f084d6613/EE_SVA-01.jpg" /><img width="2221" height="2221" width_o="2221" height_o="2221" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e8211dea434d9e6d627b4488a97c2431f80d38a30e5d5d06f84aed2097783d36/EE_SVA-07.jpg" data-mid="141552364" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e8211dea434d9e6d627b4488a97c2431f80d38a30e5d5d06f84aed2097783d36/EE_SVA-07.jpg" /><img width="2224" height="2236" width_o="2224" height_o="2236" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4795d2f5b837cf64a8dba6c410e15fd812ba06ae3d43816b43b8d6fbff86470f/EE_SVA-03.jpg" data-mid="141552362" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4795d2f5b837cf64a8dba6c410e15fd812ba06ae3d43816b43b8d6fbff86470f/EE_SVA-03.jpg" /><img width="2564" height="1706" width_o="2564" height_o="1706" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e015a3d42ad8c3b8a899f44dc252999edb73fa4d5277f2921836b46194324fa0/Screen-Shot-2022-04-03-at-4.37.23-PM.png" data-mid="141552444" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e015a3d42ad8c3b8a899f44dc252999edb73fa4d5277f2921836b46194324fa0/Screen-Shot-2022-04-03-at-4.37.23-PM.png" /><img width="2221" height="2221" width_o="2221" height_o="2221" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/25d6d64270f02b6854e52fd324ee33a3eb2e9db47a0064ece737c549814b1dc1/EE_SVA-06.jpg" data-mid="141552363" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/25d6d64270f02b6854e52fd324ee33a3eb2e9db47a0064ece737c549814b1dc1/EE_SVA-06.jpg" /><img width="786" height="1054" width_o="786" height_o="1054" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dd28767c1fa6664ab3f447edc9cc1ccfcc3481b4966f612a82904747339a1da0/Screen-Shot-2022-04-03-at-4.55.10-PM.png" data-mid="141552445" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/786/i/dd28767c1fa6664ab3f447edc9cc1ccfcc3481b4966f612a82904747339a1da0/Screen-Shot-2022-04-03-at-4.55.10-PM.png" /> September 2022
