Project Overview:

My Visual Diary isn’t a project — it’s a personal archive disguised as a magazine. Designed using Adobe Creative Cloud and illustrated in Procreate, it merges editorial precision with raw visual storytelling. It opens with a self-portrait that doesn’t flatter — it dares — and moves through moodboards, design idols, and a closing spread that dismantles identity on purpose. This isn’t about being clean or polished. It’s about being unforgettable.‍

‍

Objectives:

1. Turn Identity Into Impact
Every page is deliberate. Every choice — from type to texture — was made to make you feel something before you even read.‍

2. Curate Without Compromise
I showcased the designers that shaped me — not the trendy ones, the loud ones. The ones who broke things and rebuilt them better.‍

3. Close With Chaos (Because It’s Real)
The final page is a deconstructed, surrealist self-portrait — a visual gut punch that strips everything down to emotion, distortion, and instinct.

Scope of Work:

This magazine is a sharp, stylized breakdown of my design identity — curated, illustrated, and built entirely by me. Every detail is intentional, every page a snapshot of what drives my creative voice. It’s personal, visual, and unapologetically loud — a full-spectrum look into how I see and build.

• Illustrated cover created in Procreate — warped, stylized, and impossible to mistake for anyone else. It sets the tone before a single word is read.
• Designer inspiration spread that treats influence like legacy — loud, visual, and placed with precision. These aren’t trends — they’re anchors.
• Moodboard built around a strict red/black/white/grey palette, designed to heighten contrast, mood, and visual tension across the spread.
• Abstract portrait finale inspired by postmodern zines and distorted self-image — fragmented, textured, and meant to disrupt.
• Fully built in InDesign, with obsessive control over space, rhythm, and type. Nothing sits on the page by accident.

This isn’t a visual diary — it’s a statement. A mapped-out, stylized archive of how I think, what I build, and the visual instincts that shape everything I create.
