    This post is an extension of the Logo Development section (pages 54-55) in my 122-page Master’s Degree Design book (in which I chose to rebrand Korean tourism for my year-long project). You can download the entire e-book here, or order a hardcopy from Blurb here. Why choose to rebrand Korean tourism? Frankly, I hated the logo at that time (“Korea,…

    The following is an excerpt from my 122-page Master’s Degree Design book in which I chose to rebrand Korean tourism for my year-long project. (You can download the entire e-book here, or order a hardcopy from Blurb here.) In order to get a feel for the project from the get-go, I was asked to create a…

    After creating a pretty unique logo that everyone was quite satisfied with, they asked me to follow it up with some t-shirt designs for the summer retreat the church was going on. I came up with NINE variations and the one pictured above was chosen for printing. Because they liked the logo so much, the…

    These banners were made to go along with: The new TCC logo design The new TCC t-shirts The TCC summer retreat booklet I wasn’t given much design direction for these banners except sizing. However, learning from previous experience (see the Horizontal banners) taught me that over-doing the “pretty” and under-emphasizing the text on banners that were…

    In 2010, I started on a personal project that would carry on until around mid-2012: a religious art series I developed in Photoshop and Illustrator that I called “I Am Thou Art.” This was a play on the old King James style English where people would say, “Lord, thou art holy” etc, and since God’s…

    By far one of my favorite designs I made in grad school was in the first week of school. The teacher assigned us the task to create a poster in some kind of “period style.” I chose Civil War style posters to create “A Modern Civil War Poster for South Korea’s Cheonan Warship Sinking.” (The…

    Before beginning my Master’s program in Media Design from Full Sail University, my (just married) wife’s former pastor/mentor decided he was ready to move back to the city to start his own church. She suggested that I create a logo for the church as they started getting set up. The church name is “함께하는 교회”…

    LONG ago (2009) when I was just getting started in graphic and web design, I got married. “Well, what better way to both (1) show my love for my bride and (2) create some cool portfolio pieces than to design a bunch of stuff for our wedding?” I thought. Recently, I was also given an…

    As a way for me to both introduce my girlfriend/fiancée to my family in the US when we took a trip there in 2009, and to catch my family up to speed with all that had happened since I left the US in 2006, I created a “magazine” series with our personal stories in it.…
