Institution: Oklahoma State University (OSU)
Technology: Adobe Dimension, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop
Description: Foolish Things Coffee Co. is a family-owned coffee shop on Route 66 in downtown Tulsa. The design approach was to create organic and handdrawn illustrations and pair it with soft typography and a naturalistic color palette to give a sense of comfort and humanism to the overall design. The linework that is used throughout each design is a nod to downtown Tulsa’s grand art deco architecture. The Cheshire cat has many symbolic purposes, and the owners of Foolish Things have given it great meaning: “...[the logo]is reminiscent of what it means to be a fully bodied humanity, and we’re not there. You’re never going to see the fully bodied Cheshire cat in the logo, because there is always going to be work to be done.” In my redesign, I stayed true to the given meaning of this cat as it never fully appears in any version of the emblem, logotype, or icon. Additionally, the eye itself is stylized as a coffee bean, representing what Foolish Things is.

Entrant: Jaime Kimball (Student)
Instructor: Nick Mendoza
Institution: Oklahoma State University (OSU)
Technology: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop
Description: Typo Roma is an International Conference on Typography and Design organized by ATypI Association. This conference identity is inspired by the Roman Forum. The font is bold, which represents the solid structure of the Roman Forum and the ruins that are found all over the city. The letters are arranged in a way that appear to be falling as did most of the Roman Forum. The letter forms are manipulated to represent the broken structures in the forum. The texture was added to represent the small chipping of stone that happens naturally over time. The secondary type was put on a path that aligned to the broken large letter forms to break the word. It was placed inside the large letter to help the viewer see what once was, like how one walks through the Roman Forum imagining ancient Rome a few millenniums ago.

I blend tradition with contemporary and futuristic elements, combining fantasy, reality, classical aesthetics, and technology. Breaking free from cultural confines, I explore ancient and modern eras, crafting a new global visual language. Central to this series are classical sculptures from Eastern and Western traditions, symbolizing human civilization’s peak and cultural interplay. By merging 3D-scanned Greek and Buddhist statues, I create striking visual contrasts in a new narrative. These works delve into global multiculturalism’s conflicts and rejuvenation. Though not tied to a specific religion, I draw inspiration from religious tales like the Tower of Babel, Noah’s Ark, baptism, and reincarnation, fueling my artisticexploration.

Description: The work “Integrated Wishing Well” aims to embody the convergence and collision of Eastern and Western cultural arts, which have been central to my recent years of creation. Responding to tradition from a contemporary and futuristic perspective, I merge fantasy with reality, classical aesthetics with virtual technology and artificial intelligence.

By uniquely merging 3D-scanned ancient Greek and Buddhist statues, profound visual contrasts converge in a new context. These works bear the weight of history while exploring conflicts and regeneration in global multiculturalism. While I do not adhere to a specific religion, belief in the unseen world inspires me, drawing from religious narratives like the Tower of Babel, Noah’s Ark, the Last Supper, baptism, reincarnation, impermanence, pantheon, and wishing wells.

Bibi belongs to the auspicious beast fox tribe in Chinese mythology and has agile movements and sharp perception capabilities. The original intention of creating this work was based on “Oriental imagination”. The picture mainly highlights the oriental colors. It is hoped that through different visual forms, it can show its unrecorded appearance, ability and personality and other information, highlightingthe mystery of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. It is intended to be integrated into the self-design process. Based on the concept of oriental artistic conception, the works use unique shapes and traditional elements to create a modern fusion.
Work Flow:1. In the early stage, collect style elements such as shape, color, composition, form, etc., draw multiple conceptual design drafts, determine the shape and overall picture style, select the spiritual beast Bibi (bibi) from the Classic of Mountains and Seas “Dongshan Jing”, and select the character dynamics Angle, then make Loar.2. Search relevant literature and materials of “The Classic of Mountains and Seas” and extract keyword information.3. Enter stable diffusion to start creating, and assist in generating design drawings based on self-designed concept drafts.4. Choose the best effect. This process requires constantly trying to update the effect and even adjust the early design drawings to achieve the optimal effect.5. Finally refine the finished product and transfer it to AI and PS for editing and typesetting.

Description: Traditional cliff carvings in China are fading in the digital age. Our design seeks to deepen understanding of their cultural and artistic significance. Using virtual simulation, we recreate these carvings, considering their imagery, symbolism, and materials. We focus on restoring Bodhisattva carvings, analyzing scriptures, and designing informational interfaces. With three scene levels and gamified interactions, users are immersed in a virtual story, enhancing appreciation of traditional Chinese aesthetics.
