LOGOS & MARKS

In this collection of logos & marks, I explored a variety of client briefs.

The requests were usually ambiguous, so to ease the process I often turn to simple ingredients; creativity, simplicity, and a standout nature to transform ideas into a successful visual representation. 

“We like Design to be visually powerful, intellectually elegant, and above all — timeless.”

-Massimo Vignelli

PRODUCT DESIGN

From logomark to product design, to copywriting, this project was an exciting creative journey that helped build a strong account relationship with this Freelance client that trusted my design decisions every step of the way.

The decisions of color, shapes, and styles were made strategically following projections of the client’s target audience behavior.

THE DETAILS

I created realistic visuals throughout the pitching process that helped illuminate the concepts and speed up the decision-making and final production of the bottle.

LAYOUT DESIGN

Layout design for me is about the invisible. Accomplishing a flow that feels visually compelling and digestible. You will find that my work reduces the clutter to allow more room for impact. A selection of photography from my own library and typography experimentations that serve both as guides for the reader as well as a visual treat.

In Design be logical, search for truth, be clear.

ILLUSTRATIONS

The client had a simple request; a cocktail glass with France in mind. By submerging myself in the geometric structures of France, I found an inspiring and unique solution with sophisticated detail.

Even a simple ask can result in an imaginative turnaround.

THE DETAILS

Worked alongside the glass production team to coordinate the technical specs, for an effective illustration embossment.

COLLAGE

I had the opportunity to work with the Adobe Photoshop team during Adobe Max.  

I decided to use my Photography and Graphic Design skills to create an artwork that expressed the creativity and versatility of Photoshop and represented the attendee’s restless desire to explore and be multifaceted creatives.


THE DETAILS

The photos were not stocked, they were curated along the city of Miami to create an authentic viewpoint.

ADOBE ONLINE EDUCATION

Teaching for me was a sort of "Aha" moment, it was the natural step in my on-going focus of visual storytelling. Through partnerships with companies like Adobe and Skillshare I have had opportunities to inspire others like me on their way to their own summit.

One of my favorite opportunities for public speaking came to me through an Adobe partnership. I have been invited to be a guest and host for Adobe Live Segments presenting design concepts in front of an audience of creatives. It has always been a room like no other, eager for knowledge and an unspoken go-getter energy.

Every time, I feel a responsibility to be more than just a speaker, rather — a Mentor.

SOCIAL ACTIVATIONS

Art Basel is an art exhibition with over 80,000 visitors hosted in the art district of Miami. 

The Google team and I worked to host a unique Photo-Walk where I guided a photographic experience. I also designed visuals that reflected their venue and the artistic spirit of Miami nightlife. 

NICELY SAID…

  “...she demonstrated professionalism and initiative by conceptualizing an interactive Photowalk where the participant received a one on one mobile photography education on the Pixel’s Night Mode feature. Cyn’s contributions have earned our Google #TeamPixel programs a nomination at the Shorty Awards for its success in delivering 5M+ engagements and 105M impressions.”
