For the last time, hey y’all! The course has come to its end. For the last post I decided write about a planner. My planner. Or well planners. Been a planner addict for about a year now – always used and been into calendars though, can’t live without one. I’m a one-planner kind of a […]

KURIOS! Go and see it! I went yesterday to see Cirque du Soleil’s KURIOS, that’s running in Vancouver. LOVED IT! The show, tricks, music, set design, story, everything! <3 Anytime I go see these kinds of shows, I get the urge to become a set designer (and a musician and a performer and what not…) […]

I’m baaa-ack…! The last project at school was to create our own designs for a book. We had a list of a few books to choose from. I chose The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. The cover has already been designed many times. Here you can see an overall look and feel to them. […]

Hey y’all! You must read newspapers. At least some of you, right? And you might’ve seen many designs, brilliant and maybe not so brilliant ones. We redesigned a newspaper of our own choosing at school. We picked The Guardian Weekly with my partner. As the name suggests, the paper comes out weekly. It focuses on […]

Halloween! A very North American thing, which is making its way to Europe. I’m so happy I got to experience the real thing here. With all the decorations, candy (so good) and even PUMPKIN CARVING! And I got to thinking – the designs, the techniques, the imagination you can put into it. I entered a […]

Hey you! Yes you – the university person. I stumbled on something, at least I find interesting and quite funny too. In a cleaver way funny. Ads for university…So I was going through Google, trying to find a topic for advertising class and I stumbled on York University’s ads from two years ago. There are […]

So this blog is for the course I’m taking at KPU called Publication Design. The assignment for last week was to redesign two spreads of a book we didn’t find as appealing as it could’ve been. My book was Holiday Buzz from Cleo Coyle published in 2012. It’s about a barista solving a murder around […]

There was an interior design show in Vancouver last weekend which I attended. I was giddy. There is a similar show held every September in Finland, which I missed this time for obvious reasons. I was excited to see the Vancouver version and I gotta say, I was surprised how small it was. Even more […]

From time to time Facebook notifies you with events your friends are attending. I found Uninterrupted on my list a couple of weeks ago. The life of a salmon projected on the underside of a bridge. I was fascinated. So I went with a couple of my friends on a Thursday night last week – the last […]
