MECCA Apothecary Board
2025
Role: Design


A5 double-sided cards


MECCA Apothecary at Bourke Street is a space that brings new age remedies and ancient rituals together in the ultimate ode to feeling good. At the apothecary, skincare and wellness aren’t separate categories, they’re part of the same conversation. 

The Apothecary board is a small yet considered part of this section, featuring cards with detailed quotes, illustration crops and educational facts. They invite customers to engage and take a piece home.

Melbourne Cinémathèque 20252024Identity Design
Animation
Offset Print
A1 Calendar 
Cinema Screens

My proposed identity for Melbourne Cinémathèque 2025 draws inspiration from the circle, a shape deeply rooted in cinema history. Circle evokes the charm of old film projection techniques, where reels and lenses created the moving images, represented by the mirror effect within the circle. This concept is further reinforced by the circular mirrors located at various spots at the ACMI museum, where the event takes place. Melbourne Cinematheque was running at ACMI every Wednesday night, from February to December 2025.

This book traces the subtle threads between beloved artworks, photography, nature, and moments of nostalgia, seemingly unrelated fragments that, when held in reflection, begin to speak to one another.
Through observation and intuitive pairing,
it explores how meaning is in the loose connections that echo something deeper, personal.
