Product logic in Boldstorming

Product logic in Boldstorming

I need an elegant resume for seeking jobs, and a cross-device portfolio recodes/shows my design works anytime, anywhere.

To make this identity bold and bright, the challenges are:

  • Easy to reading, seeking work and/or academic opportunities;
  • Responsive web design with modern front-end technologies;
  • Unifying graphics design crossing screen display and print.

My Role

Identity System

Cross-platform identity

Based on these challenges, I created a cross-platform identity for unified graphics and better readability.

Methods

Prepress and RWD Grids

Prepress colours "grey noise problem"

When printer printing 4-colours CMYK value, the K (grey) can not fill into whole print parts. So I need adding a little C (cyan/blue) value to print more smooth grey/black colour.

RWD site with bootstrap grid system

Rather than producing dozens of designs for every screen size, I created a prototype in Adobe Xd, and I wanted responsiveness to work: using Bootstrap's grid system and customise default 12-cols grid to 3-cols to fit print grid system.

sass can make css easy to read and set up some nesting structure/importing some variate for styles, just like normal programming languages.
