Echos of Us, 2025

Echoes of Us explores the emotional and social implications of human connection and its artificial imitation. The accessibility to digital comfort through AI gives the illusion of closeness, yet it remains uncertain whether this intimacy heals loneliness or quietly feeds it.
The web-based project is chat interactions and visual identity systems of AI companions modelled with an unexpected personality. Each persona a fragment of memory and personality, an echo of a friend, distorted and reinterpreted though machine learning.
The work explores what is lost, invented and familiar in digital intimacy. It questions whether the warmth we feel in digital companionship is genuine or merely a reflection of our own desire to be seen, cared for and understood. Echoes of Us blurs the line between connection and simulation, asking whether companionship can remain authentic when generated algorithmically.

Raffiné Type Specimen, 2025

The typeface CoFo Raffiné was created for elegant, sophisticated headings. It’s very name, “Raffiné” [adjective], translates to polite, well-mannered, elegant. Therefore, the typeface was intentionally designed to embody demure, politeness and refinement.

The EYE, 2025

Continuum presents a fresh and contemporary exhibition identity that reflects design as an ongoing process of growth and reflection. Our identity is energetic yet introspective, capturing the rhythm and momentum of the creative process. It marks a moment of transition for each student, representing both culmination and renewal. It holistically positions the exhibition as a key moment of transition in our careers and lives, as a ‘full circle’ moment. Through a clear and cohesive visual language, the exhibition celebrates progress, persistence, diversity, and a collective enthusiasm in what’s to come within the graduating cohort.
