Whether you are a designer, a developer, a marketer, a student or anything in between - in today's creative job market every differentiator will count towards getting the job. Gone are the days of being able to talk over your future employer's head, just showing the latest deliverable you are working on, even worse showing nothing at all. Welcome instead to a world where your work is being measured not by what you say it was, but by what it really was.
This workshop was developed for General Assembly in NYC. It is meant to be run in 90 minutes.

A presentation I pulled together to document the work of an unofficial team at a company I work with. We started the group in July 2006 and it's grown beyond our expectations. I've removed any references which identify the company, so sorry if some bits don't make sense. It's a great case study on Enterprise2.0 and I would be happy to speak to anyone about it should they want to know more.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.
2. My philosophy is to
design with purpose,
definition, and focus
using layers of color, light
and texture to add variety
and richness.

4. Tadao Ando’s Church on the Water
First – Year Studio
Diagramming is an
essential skill to have to
analyze important design
elements of a project.
In Tadao Ando’s Church
on the Water, Ando made
it evident that the cross
was a significant design
element for the Church.
he created images and
views of the cross
throughout the space.
Another meaningful
aspect of Ando’s design is
how he integrated the
building with the land, as
if it was emerging from
the earth.
Also, Ando deliberately
designed the space to
guide guests through the
Church in order for them
to experience and
appreciate all of it’s
unique features.

5. A Weekend Retreat Lake House
First – Year Studio
In order to design the
Weekend Retreat Lake
House, solar orientation,
natural ventilation,
topography, exterior
relationships, lake front
views, and interior space
planning were studied.
The project called for a
modest single bedroom
retreat with room to host
two to three guests. The
first floor is divided into
four quadrants: entry,
living room, dining room
and kitchen.
A spiral staircase leads up
to the second floor loft
which is accompanied by a
personal shower/toilet
room and laundry
facilities.
Shown to the right are a
one – point perspective of
the dining area with a lake
view and the first floor
plan with furniture
arrangements.
Medium: Rapidograph pen

8. Rick Larson’s New York Loft
Third – Year Studio Winner: Student Gold at IIDA’s Mid America Design Awards April 2010
The New York Loft was
designed for businessman
Rick Larson and was
inspired by the Art Deco
movement and works by A A
Charles Rennie
Mackintosh.
A warm palette of cream
and orange was chosen
for the space and teal
accents on walls and
furniture echo the blue-
green terra cotta brick Key: 1. Entry/Exit, 2. Guest Toilet, 3. Coat Closet, 4. Dining,
which bands across the 5. Functional Divide 6. Kitchen, 7. Living Area, 8. Reading
exterior building. Nook, 9. Shelf Unit

are the functional divide
with shelving, a reading
nook, functional storage
under the stairs, Guest
toilet near entry but
views shielded from
dining area, and an
expandable coffee table.

9. Pediatrics Office
Third – Year Studio
The design of the
Pediatrics Office was
inspired by nature. My
goal of the design was to
create a therapeutic,
relaxing, and uplifting
environment. This was
achieved by incorporating
sky-like light boxes in the
waiting area ceiling, by
painting flowing ribbons
of color on the walls,
and the use of greens and
earth tones. Reception Desk Modeled in Revit 2010
As a pediatrics office, the
intent was to design a
space which comforted
small children without
intimidating them and
without excluding the
wants and needs of older
children and teens.
The program called for a
reception area, waiting
area, nurse’s station,
triage, two toilet rooms –
one ADA accessible, two
consulting offices , three
exam rooms, and an
employee break room.
Medium: Pen and Marker
on vellum. Modeling in
Waiting Area rendered with pen, marker
Revit 2010. 9
and colored pencil on marker paper.
11. Progressions Hotel & Restaurant
And the 4th Dimension Nightclub
Third – Year Studio
Progressions Hotel &
Restaurant and the 4th
Dimension Nightclub was a
group project designed
around the concept of
time and the ability to
capture space in time.
Also, we wanted to merge
the historic 20’s -30’s of
Manhattan, KS with the
present and future of
Manhattan, KS.
Some of the innovative
features are a two –
story atrium space with
access to day lighting,
pixilated historic photos,
copper and silver colored
metal ceiling tiles,
Lumiblade’s OLED “You
Fade to Light” installation
in the nightclub, and
reclaimed wood doors
for Hotel bedrooms.
Design revisions and CD’s
were created for this
project.
Medium: Pen and Marker
on Vellum. Modeled in
Revit 2010.
