ADIEU
MAGAZINE THAT TRANSFORMS INTO A NOTEBOOK
Adieu is a magazine highlighting fashion, design, technology and global affairs for a sustainable existence. Printed using disappearing ink, as the publications content becomes outdated, the printed matter fades, leaving behind a black canvas. By first inspiring, then allowing for an individual to create, Adieu invites the reader to become a creator.
​
Adieu was on display during New York's Design Week.

LIGHTNIGHT
AN AMBIENT BOOK
Books have long been decried as archaic follies that would be eradicated by electronics, so if they are to survive they must demonstrate an ability for multitasking.
Two stories in one, LightNight is a children’s book printed using a clear varnish on one side and a glow-in-the-dark ink on the other. The glow side can only be read at night while the reverse can only be read in the presence of light. Its accordion-fold design allows the glow side to completely charge before bedtime. Once your beloved is fast asleep, the book can be left open to double as a night light.
​
LightNight was on display during New York's Design Week and featured on The New Yorker's blog as an "Object of Desire."

24HRS OF DEATH IN THE USA
A REPRESENTATIVE POSTER
The following poster acts as an abacus portraying the daily loss of animal life for consumption in the United States alone. Each illustrated animal represents one million of its kind, thus adding up to the total number of animals killed in the USA in a 24-hour period. At first glance, the viewer may see this as a celebratory flag depicting animal life; however it is, in fact, quite the opposite.

24Hrs of Slaughter was on display during New York's Design Week and caught the attention of PETA.
