Monash Art, Design and Architecture Graduate Exhibition 2024

My name is Elissa Ung, a Communication Designer, born in Melbourne. I am never stationary in what I design, always changing and adapting different styles, being influenced and driven by the many designers that surround me. From the art on a museum wall to a candy wrapper , the world world be a different place without the mind of a designer.

Vision: Promotional Posters

What’s a hypothetical exhibition without it’s promotional posters? Creating a design inspired the work of Steph Hughes, Peek Through sees the playful and colourful style present in many of her works, especially the print-mark/ crayon line art.

Vision: Folding Invite

What would you “peek through” with? Your eyes! Creating this folding invite design for the exhibition, i continued to use the main eye motif from the posters, this was a sort of logo for the overall exhibition. The back side shows a collage of a few of Hughes’ works, with another main motif being the interconnecting roads.

Vision: Column Flags

Being the flags presented in front of the famous State Library, it had to be eye-catching and pleasing. Here, the road motif is more present - connecting through all five flags. In terms of meaning, the eyes are an introduction to viewers while the roads are secondary, leading people into Hughes’ work.

Vision: Mural

Keeping it simple, i did not want to create a overall new design for the mural, i kept the main logo as seen on the promotional poster. With a subtraction of a few pairs of eyes, the bright yellow is a warm welcome to those entering the exhibition space.

Vision: T-Shirt

When you’ve created such beautiful works, people tend to commemorate that experience by buying merch - a T-shirt for example. This design is, again, based on the roads presented in many of this exhibition's designs.

Vision: Direction Sign

Don’t get Lost! This directional sign that would be seen inside the State Library, doing it’s job directing people coming in and going out . Instead of the normal arrows, I had the advantage to use the roads I've created to guide people.
