To advertise the exhibition clients requested for designing a poster and social media assets such as Facebook and Instagram images post as well as the cover image. Additionally, the clients needed a poster design dedicated for a tote bag that was printed and hand-sewed in Yangon, Myanmar.

The wall text was located at the entrance of the exhibition and its goal was to inform the audience what was the show about. It was written in English and Burmese languages.

ideation

My clients and I started the whole process by defining the project strategy and schedule iterations dates. We discussed primary needs, expectations, and all needed deliverables.

Once the strategy was defined, I started working on design decisions such as typefaces, layout grid systems, color palette, and media assets. After these elements were accepted by the clients I started working on the first draft of the catalog and poster. Eventually, I also started working on social media assets and the wall text.
