I was incredibly proud to be a part of the Portsmouth Graduate Showcase Design team and take part in designing and creating the 2026 identity.
My role was elected Project Manager, which entailed ensuring the smooth running and communication between everyone involved throughout the whole process. We pitched our idea of creating icons that represented our time at university, where each student would be able to select 3 to go alongside their name/work at the show. After receiving the go-ahead from our cohort and lecturers, we designed icons, layouts/templates, the website, showreel, catalogues, badges and more. Each decision down to the type of paper, was considered and executed.
We received great feedback on our identity design and execution, and we were proud to bring our catalogues and badges to the D&AD New Blood Show, as well as to our own University of Portsmouth Graduation Show. I have included images of our finished catalogue and badges, as well as early stages of designs and mockups below.
