My capstone project, "We Are What We Eat: Recipes from Our Kitchens" is a unique cookbook that provides recipes using 4 staple ingredients within our pantries: bread, rice, potato, and noodles. This book aims to create a sense of community, encourage meaningful conversations, and highlight how food can be a reflection of our identities, cultures, and shared experiences.

A brochure is created as a promotional tool for the cookbook, and it can be sent out separately to advertise it.

My proposed identity for Melbourne Cinématheque 2025 draws inspiration from the circle, a motif deeply rooted in cinema history. The Circle evokes the charm of old film projection techniques, where reels and lenses combine to create moving images while also referencing mirror effects and optics. This concept is physically reinforced by the various circle mirrors located at the ACMI, where the event takes place.
