ROLE
Graphic Designer, Merch Designer
A concept-driven e-commerce collection showcasing original and fan-based poster designs and wearable merchandise. This project explores brand storytelling, visual identity, and market-ready design mockups for online retail presentation.
In today’s oversaturated market of online stores and digital artists, standing out as a merchandiser and graphic designer requires not just strong visuals, but strategic storytelling and contextual product presentation. I identified a gap in how most designers showcase their work — often detached from real-world application. I wanted to explore:
“What if product mockups weren’t just portfolio items, but a full e-commerce brand experience?”
To address this, I created a cohesive collection of visual merchandise — from t-shirts and sweatshirts to posters and printed artwork — and placed them in real-life inspired environments that mimic product photography.
This project includes:
A Pokémon-themed motivational t-shirt, designed with stylized retro comic book flair.
A calming, earthy “Go Offline” poster for digital detox and mindfulness enthusiasts.
A bold Eminem poster design, reflecting magazine-style editorial energy.
Two apparel and poster pieces based on The Weeknd’s discography, reimagined for modern fashion aesthetics.
A nature-inspired floral shirt, designed to reflect contemporary wearable art trends.
All mockups were treated as if they were live store assets — complete with layout balance, color harmony, and thematic consistency. This helped simulate what a real online store might look like, boosting credibility for potential client work or brand collaborations.
This project pushed my understanding of how graphic design translates beyond flat files — into real, functional, and emotional experiences that sell. By combining fan-art storytelling, original branding, and merch design principles, I was able to create an immersive e-commerce-ready experience.
It reflects my ability to:
Adapt styles across different pop culture and aesthetic genres
Build consistent brand moods through design
Present work in a commercial, product-ready context
This isn’t just about good design — it’s about creating designs people want to wear, hang, and collect.
