About
Hi, I’m Nathan, a multidisciplinary designer based in Edmonton. I’m passionate about exploring new ways to express my creative ideas and transforming them into effective design solutions.
Through the MacEwan Design Program, I’ve developed new skills and discovered new creative interests. I’m eager to continue learning, collaborating with others, and taking on new challenges as I grow in the design industry. My portfolio features a range of projects that highlight both my skills and creative perspective, reflecting my personal interests and design style.

Sound Sculptures
"As part of a class competition hosted by Bent River Records, students were tasked with designing an album cover for their upcoming jazz album, “Sound Sculptures.”
My cover explores jazz as both fluid and structured. Yellow monochromatic sculptural waves move across a deep navy background, with a clean sans-serif typeface that makes the waves feel both intentional and organic, suggesting that while each song is carefully composed, the music itself remains free and continuous."

Raspberry Smirnoff Product Photography
"This vibrant studio shot showcases Smirnoff Raspberry flavoured vodka with fresh raspberries and lime slices, creating a dynamic, appetizing composition that highlights the raspberry, fruity essence.
Dramatic studio lighting accentuates glossy reflections and condensation on the bottle, while a deep magenta background and marble table amplify the vibrant, bold colours of the product and fruits."

Rhubarb Cafe & Cocktails
"Rhubarb was a term-long brand identity rework project for the Edmonton cafe, Rhubarb Cafe & Cocktails. The project introduces a refreshed logo with a bold red-to-purple colour palette inspired by rhubarb stems.
The identity balances the cocktail coffee cup and a clean, modern aesthetic with playful colour, shapes, and patterns to reflect the cafe’s transition from a cozy daytime coffee spot to a lively evening cocktail bar."
