RISD GD MFA Biennial Identity: ¹For Reference Only
Exhibition Design
Identity Design
Spatial Design
Art Direction
Visual identity system for the 2025 RISD Graphic Design MFA Biennial, “¹For Reference Only”, questioning the afterlife of design work. I conceptualized and created the core visual identity that was adopted for the exhibition, serving as the driving creative force behind the visual language. I developed the comprehensive visual system and directed its cohesive implementation across all exhibition touchpoints. Working closely with specialized teams, I maintained visual consistency while expanding the system to effectively connect the exhibition's critical examination of design consumption across spatial, print, motion, and digital platforms.
