The Black Homeownership Project aims to expand and protect Black homeownership in NYC by connecting Black homeowners with expert local-housing counseling organizations and legal-services providers at no cost.

Our branding and website design aimed to embody the project’s mission of expanding access to homeownership opportunities for Black communities. The logo, featuring a rooftop graphic housing the logotype, symbolizes the initiative’s commitment to providing more homes for Black individuals. With a vibrant orange palette and a visual language characterized by simplicity, approachability, and trustworthiness, the branding reflects the project’s values of empowerment and innovation, resonating with a diverse audience and inspiring aspirations for homeownership.

DataHaven’s Community Wellbeing Index is a report focusing on wellbeing, equity, and quality of life in Greater New Haven, Fairfield County, and Greater Hartford, Connecticut. 

For this project, we were tasked with the design of variant cover concepts and interior layouts for three reports presenting the latest data around these three topics for New Haven. Designed elements including cover design, layout, pagination, visualizations (tables, maps, icons, and infographics), and print mechanicals, as well as distinct color palettes for the visual identities of the three reports.

DataHaven is a nonprofit that collects, interprets, and shares public data to inspire effective decision-making, improving the quality of life in local communities.

For this data-visualization and publication-design project, we designed a series of three DataHaven reports for Fairfield County, Greater Hartford, and Greater New Haven, Connecticut. We developed variant cover concepts and interior layouts for the three reports, along with data visualizations on almost every page interpreting data produced for more than 100 partners throughout Connecticut and its neighboring states.

Produced in close collaboration with the Center for Active Design, “Assembly: Civic Design Guidelines” is a groundbreaking playbook for creating well-designed and well-maintained public spaces. The guidelines encapsulate four years of research—involving over 200 studies, 50 cities, and dozens of experts—highlighting the role of public spaces as a force for building trust and healing divisions in local communities.

We designed the published guidelines to incorporate vibrant colors and simple hand-drawn illustrations to help explain the significance of these research findings in simple terms, along with practical methods that policymakers can adopt to bring about great public spaces for all.
