Inspired by Sony's WH-1000XM6 headphones, I developed Echo SV-01 as a speculative premium audio product line. The project explores how noise cancellation and immersive listening can be translated into an experimental visual language.

Oversized, monolithic black forms create a dense, enveloping presence, evoking a sense of acoustic isolation. Their visual weight suggests the sensation of being sealed off from external noise, while expansive negative space serves as a metaphor for silence.

The tension between solid mass and emptiness reinforces the immersive experience of noise cancellation.

Small, fragmented typography is distributed across carefully controlled spatial intervals, creating rhythm, pause and distance within the composition.

This spatial arrangement reflects the depth and expansiveness of immersive sound, while the contrast between monumental forms and delicate microtypography establishes a balance between intensity and restraint.

I'm a Melbourne-based graphic designer with a Bachelor of Design (Animation and Interactive Media) from RMIT University.

​

My work focuses on brand identity, web design and illustration. I'm interested in how typography, imagery and layout come together to create distinctive and cohesive visual experiences.

​

I enjoy developing flexible visual systems that work across digital and physical touchpoints, combining creative experimentation with clear, purposeful design.
