Kitchen La Bohème

My ever-evolving side project, my personal food blog Kitchen La Bohème, has a fresh new look. I’m always at my happiest when I’m preparing and photographing dishes for KLB! Tweaking the graphic elements and branding, and overseeing the project as it developed into the “Bohemian Kitchen” that I’d originally dreamed up has been an exciting process.

KLB is a source for Vegan and Vegetarian recipes and other food-related content, and a platform for inciting social change by showing how beautiful and delicious plant-based cuisine can be. Check out the full blog here!

New Website and Instagram

I‘ll start off by saying something that’s sort of like what everyone who neglects his or her blog says: I know I’ve been terrible about keeping up with this little area of my webspace, but I’ve been soooooooooooo busy…

I truly have been busy, with working a full-time staff design job and pushing myself to keep up with Kitchen La Bohème during my free time, I’ve been lax on the whole keeping-up-with-the-design-portfolio-website-and-blog thing. But I’m beginning to find time to work on a new design for HyperfocusNYC.com, an updated portfolio (for both graphic design and photography), and a revamped blog look, too. As usual, I’m just caught up on finishing the design section — there’s so much work! It’s a big job to sort each piece and pace the portfolio. But a new and improved HyperfocusNYC.com should be ready to launch in full soon.

And? Find me on Instagram! I’ve been using the fun little iPhone app to share some of my food photography, as well as some street photography (above) for the past couple of months. If you’re using it as well, find me there and connect!

Monday Find: Scott Marr

This portfolio of fabulous surrealist drawings done by Scott Marr is featured on the Behance Network this morning. I’m not sure if he offers prints of his work but it’s certainly worth looking into. Simply amazing.

These Sweeties Have a Secret

The Sweeties photo shoot went wonderfully. Special thanks to photographer Nathan Sayers! Above is the promo ad to announce Sweeties’ launch at the Greenpoint Food Market on May 22. As part of the campaign, I’ve also designed a blog where you can follow along through the launch date and beyond to see what’s happening with the brand, and a Facebook fan page where you can interact with other fans and participate in a Guess the Secret discussion to win a complimentary mini Sweetie at the launch event. A full web site is currently under construction and won’t be revealed until after the Food Market launch, so you’ll have to be patient for that…

Sweeties

Above is some of the initial branding work for a new project: a wholesale homestyle vegan bakery. You can see a sneak peak at the logo and identity set I’ve developed and designed for the brand, playing off the feel of a recipe card. A marketing/advertising campaign, as well as packaging and a web site, are currently in the beginning stages of being developed with an expected launch date of May 22.

Typography Kaleidoscope

I just came across this amazing set of kaleidoscopes with patterns made from type. According to the artist, Katerna Orlikova, the idea was based off of the topic, “Light and Typography.” You can read more about the project and see more images here.
