Design

It is a project of designing a concept of a tea company, the logo and packagings. There are three favours, Earl Grey, Lady Grey and English Breakfast.

Within the Logo, I chose tree and bird. The purpose is to highlight that the teas of “Greatea” are fresh and healthy. The main colours, green and yellow can also give customers feelings of clam and relax. The three main colours for the favours are based on the images they gave me.

Greatea

It is my own brand with the products designed by myself. The company’s name is from Italian words : Volare and Uccello. Volare means flying and Uccello

means bird. They also fit the concept of my products which mainly focus on natural, human and animals.

The product are notebooks, postcards and bookmarks, etc. The purpose of Volaruccello is to

contain designs and arts in everyday basic items and everyday life.

Volaruccello

These are a series of illustration designs I have done in black pen. I love both drawing and design, so I try to join them together.

Illustration Design

Illustration

Watercolor is a bit hard to control, but I really like it. I believe it has it own very special style. It is using

water to paint. Make water to decide how the colors and the feelings of the illustration will be like.

Watercolor

Comuputer coloring are more easier to control but hard to build own style and paint very well. I do most of my illustration coloring in Photoshop. It is my favourite tool.

Computer coloring

Project

Klaus Petrat is a German writer who wrote a book this few years and prepared to publish. For the book, he need some illustrations and a cover design. I feel

glad that I find this job and been able to work on it.

It is my first proper job for illustrating and it is also the first time I go out and meet the client. It is

always a little bite challenge to go out and meet strangers, people you never know before. However it

wasn’t that scary. This job gave me great experience on both illustration design and communication skill

area. It not only improved my illustration skill but also my communication skill.

Illustrations for Klaus Petrat

It is the first time I worked with a company and my first international job. This company is based on Japan. They sell beautiful flowers and oranges. The theme was Halloween. I had to design a 2 sided orange packaging for the company for Halloween season.

The client is located at Japan, so I need to communicate with him between Emails. The most challenge thing for me in this project is to talk to the client which is the business owner in Japanese and make sure my Japanese is right. This project gave me a great experience on packaging design and also on my language skill. I believe that in this project I improved myself on both design and Japanese language area.
