For the O.N.S. x Leonard and Church collaboration, I designed a line of minimalist watches. The design the faces to have no numbers and each have a graphic color block on the hands. I chose the Nato and Tweed straps to pair with Leonard and Church’s simple Varick case. I also art directed and designed the campaign for its launch.

Originally a simple blog-scroll format, one of the main challenges for redesigning Tidal Magazine’s website was to feature online-exclusive content while also presenting content from the printed magazine. I came up with the solution to have separate landing pages but mix the content on the homepage to give an overall view of the publication.
— Branding & Illustration
In collaboration with Savvy Studio, I worked on the branding for The Maidstone Hotel in East Hampton, NY. I designed the logo system and stationary. In addition, I made illustrations for the menus for the restaurant and cafe.

The O.N.S x Leah Goren Creative Lab capsule is a celebration of carefree, sun-drenched summer days. Prolific artist-illustrator and surface pattern designer, Leah Goren, grew up in Southern California surrounded by vivid nature backdrops, a thriving surfer lifestyle, and exciting skate culture. In this Summer collection we asked Goren to display her visual narrative of summertime experiences out on Rockaway Beach, the subcultural interests that revolved around the beach promenades, and a colorful homage of her fondest memories on both American coasts.

O.N.S Clothing is a New York based brand that produces quality menswear for modern living. As the art director, I created a campaign entitled “Now Arriving” for the Fall 2019 collection which was inspired by airports and travel. The brand narrative is centered around the experiences of the Urban Transplant so I wrote with a seasonal story focused on the excitement and hesitations of moving to a new city. Along with directing two photoshoots, a short film and NY Fashion week presentation, I designed a custom typeface inspired by tarmac lettering that was applied across multiple marketing channels. For the campaign, I designed a printed lookbook, social ads, title cards, a presentation evite, set vinyl graphics, in-store displays and street posters.

For the O.N.S Fall/Winter 2018 season, I wanted a campaign that felt textural and dynamic. Drawing from the wintry desert inspiration, I decided to layer environmental landscapes with editorial shots that further emphasized the visual and tactile textures of the collection. Through the use of video projections, I was able to add a bit of movement as well as a bit more depth.

For the O.N.S Fall/Winter 2018 collection, I came up with concept of wintry deserts. The collection draws color and texture from the terrain of sand and snow and pulls layering inspiration from the individuals who live in these places. For the look book, I wanted to shoot something that felt artisanal, textural and bold. Collection was featured on Hypebeast and Highsnobiety.
