Hypertext Magazine is a publication exploring the intersection of art and design, culture, and technology. This project features editorial spreads for an article titled "I'm Like a PDF but a GIRL" (a dissertation by Ester Freider), as well as the beginning of the next story about Mindy Seu.

The Bagel Shack
2023
Brand Design

The Bagel Shack™ is a fictionalized bagel and breakfast/brunch shop based in Madison, Wisconsin, U.S.A. The Bagel Shack serves bagels which are often thought of as energizing, often eaten for breakfast or as an easy pick-me-up in preparation for a productive session in the middle of a work day. The Bagel Shack isn't just a stop-and-go place. It's a place for people to enjoy a meal, work, rest, or socialize. Thus, the branding is energizing, yet welcoming or friendly to capture the essence of the brand and brick-and-mortar experience.
