Packaging: Qualitea Bubble Tea
Proudly brewed in Vancouver, Qualitea is a fictional company that is the number one pre-packaged bubble tea, perfect for those constantly on the go. Qualitea uses premium loose leaf tea sweetened with its signature house made organic raw sugar syrup. The drinks reflect the love and passion they have for bubble tea.
Design an innovative and sustainable packaging solution for a bubble tea brand that exemplifies its fun and outgoing ambiance. Create a series of three products for a summer launch. Elevate the packaging to incorporate die-cuts that showcase the actual product.
To reduce single use plastics, I proposed the idea of selling bubble tea in Tetra Paks which are 100% recyclable and offer the lowest carbon footprint. To accommodate for the tapioca pearls in the drinks, I adapted and adjusted “Straw Pak” packaging from students at IDAS, Hongik University, to work for the tapioca toppings. The design balances simple illustration and typography that is fun and modern.

Business Card: Alex Palmer

One method to help in the recovery process is using KT tape, which aids in reducing swelling, increasing mobility and enhancing recovery after injury.

The electric blue is eye-catching, appealing and warrants a second look.

Website Development: Griffins Football
Eric Hamber Secondary School is home to Vancouver’s only public school with a football program. Griffins Football originated from a passion to create a program that provides students with soft skills such as time management and communication, and opportunities that will benefit them in the future whether that is in athletics or in life.
The challenge: Redesign and update the current website to be a platform that informs, promotes and celebrates the football program. Research and recommend a website platform that suits the needs of the brand. Utilize HTML and CSS knowledge to customize the theme and tailor it specifically for the brand.
The final website is branded with the school colours, maroon and baby blue and utilizes action photographs from games and practices. Rather than cluttering the home page with text, I opted to use a hamburger menu and panels for easy navigation. To tailor the theme specifically for the brand, I adjusted parts of the CSS updating button animations, container sizes as well as the media queries for mobile screens.

Logo Design: Griffins Badminton
Following an undefeated season during the 2019 VSSAA Badminton campaign. After a two year hiatus, Eric Hamber’s Badminton Teams looked forward to their winning ways once again. The team was looking for a new refreshed logo for their jerseys and team apparel. A logo that represented the team’s passion, but also ensured the mascot, a griffin and the sport was identifiable.
The challenge, create a logo for the mythical griffin; balancing the head of an eagle, and the body of a lion. In addition, seamlessly incorporate some aspect of badminton into the logo other than through text.
The final logo presents a careful balance between an eagle’s head and the tail of a lion. The tail consists of a flame, exhibiting the true qualities of what it means to be a griffin. The fire and passion of a griffin athlete are visible on and off the court. The shuttlecock is seamlessly incorporated into the wings of the griffin, representing the sport of badminton.
