To scale model of the Bates Motel featured in Alfred Hitchcock's film Psycho. Created with task board and foam core, then painted with acrylic paint. Dry moss and dirt were added in creating a realistic ground.
Hand renders of concepts for a window display, entry display, and Tiffany window displays for Jean Paul Gaultier's 2012 Fall collection.
A David Bowie inspired photo shoot featuring a black American Apparel leotard worn under a black and gold blazer sourced from Iguana Vintage Thrift Store on Hollywood Blvd. in Hollywood, CA. The shoes and accessories were sourced from our personal collections.
What started out as an ordinary dining room chair has been transformed into a one of a kind wine rack.  After disassembling the chair, I flipped it on the side, hot glued yogurt cups to the bottom for level support then secured the legs of the chair on the inside using Gorilla Glue and twine acting as the bed for the bottles.  I then created a flap door with the arms of another chair and recycled cardboard.  once the rack was assembled I spray painted it, and added finishing touches which consist of an ice bucket, which was once a popcorn bucket and rope lighting to really get the party started.
Showcasing my hand rendering skills, I drew inspiration from the Bonobos brand's Spring/ Summer 2013 collection color scheme to compose a theme of backyard BBQ for concepts for a window and entry display.  The window features three mannequins cheersing while grilling up some fun in their Bonobos outfits. The background will be created using wooden garden fencing which will actually have hung merchandise on the other side, inside the store for customers to browse through. Astro turf will be used in both displays to create the look of grass.
Upon entry, customers will be toasted to by our Bonobos mannequin. Rather than typical nesting tables and hang bars I decided to merchandise folded and rolled clothing on a barbeque grill and drink cooler while the hung merchandise will hang from a clothes line to really pull together the backyard feel.
This headpiece was an interpretation of an Alexander McQueen headpiece created using feathers, chicken wire, and felt. The piece was later installed into a Tiffany window with double E's representing the E's in "McQueen."
Displayed are the splash page, hang tag and two advertisements I created for a high end, active wear brand concept I created.
