The active conservationist alpinist prefers products that are local and transparent, ethically sound and environmentally sustainable. DARKWOODS was designed with them in mind.
​
The all-natural DARKWOODS brand is a premium instant coffee and espresso encapsulated in a cellulose plant-derived capsule.
Its minimalist packaging approach is made with mycelium fungus and derived from local mushrooms and feedstocks. It is locally manufactured, self-assembly, 100% biological yielded and 100% guilt-free.
Don't be afraid if this compact tube falls out of your backpack, because within 5 days, the all-natural quick-dissolving container starts to decompose, completely dissolving in its environment within 1 month.

Founded in 1985, The Roasterie is a Calgary coffee roasting house in Kensington who nourishes a community hub where you can hangout, have real conversations and enjoy the slow-pace life while enjoying premium coffees from around the world.
​
The brand characteristics of The Roasterie are down-to-Earth, charismatic, hand-made and traditional. The visual identity of the brand needed personality and a handmade feel, hence their Logo was created traditionally on linocut to keep the unperfected, traditional and rustic hand-made feel.

UNITED WAY - #Unignorable CAMPAIGN
​
Sometimes local issues can be hard to see. The #Unignorable birdcage was created in collaboration with United Way and was part of the Public Design Program at AuArts.
​
Designed to be an immersive and interactive experience meant to create the same feelings of isolation, helplessness, and uncertainty that thousands of Calgarians are experiencing in our community, the birdcage served as an engagement and educational piece to bring awareness about United Way's goal, which is to create awareness and ignite empathy so that people are able to get a better understanding of those who live with these challenges on a daily basis.
​
Project Role: Creative Director and Project Manager
Project Setting: In-House, Alberta University of the Arts (AuArts)
Metal Work: Dirk Dorenbos, Joel Hawkins
Paint Work: Sherwin-Williams
Preliminary Visual Team: Megan Edwards, Yunjae Lee and Gina Jin Shin
