Where I Am From

This project involves designing a poster series based on my personal 'Where I Am From' poem about my family and childhood. The entire poem is featured across all three posters, each designed uniquely to complement the others while maintaining a cohesive set. The series explores different typography pairings, visual elements, and design techniques to highlight the poem’s themes.

Roles: Graphic Design, Writing, Typography

Roots of Home: I am from the weekend bonfires, mosquito bites, and pinecone fights with my brothers. From nature, running barefoot in the grass, and flipping bricks to uncover “roly-polys”. I am from waking up at 3 am to stargaze, watching for meteor showers with Mum. From the movie dates my Dad would take me on, bonding over superheroes. I am from late nights playing video games with my big brother, and hiding our devices under pillows. From creating comics with my little brother, full of jokes and laughter. I am from having Irish tea with my Nana and craving my Grandma Rose’s sopa de estrellitas affectionately known as “Grandma’s Soup”. I am from my big sister’s support even from a distance. From being a big sister and wanting to be someone they can look up to. I am from the smell of crayons and markers. From the childish imagination, I terribly miss.
