University Prospectus
2019
Graphic Designer
Adobe InDesign, Illustrator & Photoshop
The University of the Free State (UFS) is one of the oldest, most respected institutions of higher education in South Africa.
Having done the 2019 Prospectus as well, I decided to showcase the 2021 Prospectus as I think this is one of my better projects.
In this instance the UFS wanted a modern "digital" looking design as they wanted to also upload the prospectus to their website with integratet buttons, links and QR codes. The challenge then became cramming a lot of information onto only a certain amount of pages while still making it look clean and modern.

Quarterly Magazine
2018
Graphic Designer
Adobe InDesign, Illustrator & Photoshop
South African Sport and Hunting Federation (SASHF) is a countrywide sport and hunting organization focused on hunting and shooting competitions.
This was a quarterly magazine (KUDU Brokkies/Bits) we did for the SASHF. Our office asked me to take over the design from another designer and the first thing I did was re-design the whole look and layout to better resemble a magazine, as the previous design was not up to par with what you would expect from a top tier publisher.

Various Flyers and Posters
2015 - 2019
Graphic Designer

Just a few examples of flyers and poster I have made for various companies over the years. There aro no specifics to these examples as I believe flyers and posters should speak for themselves and convey a message with just a glance like all good designs should.

Vehicle Branding
2018
Graphic Designer
Adobe InDesign, Illustrator & Photoshop
Bidvest Afcom is a company specializing in packagin solutions and label printing for various products. The owner saw a design on another company's truck where it looks like you are piering into the vehicle and wanted us to replicate that effect for his trucks.
I decided to focus on the labels on one side and the packaging on the other. The end result came out very good as I re-designed most of the images of the tools they also sell into vector so it that it can scale to the size of the truck without any artefacts or bad looking pixelation.

Juice Bottle Labels
2017
Graphic Designer
Adobe InDesign, Illustrator & Photoshop
Juicy Select is a company widely known for its bottled juice products. The client had their own designer but they could not convey what their the company wanted, so they asked us for help. I came up with a few labels, which were sent to the client, they then took over the project from there with me guiding their designer for a while.
I also did some vectorizing of older labels for the client in case they wanted to change the backdrops and colours of new flavours of old products in the future. I also took the opertunity to make some concepts using Blender 3D software for if they ever want to make canned products.
