BOOKLET OF SAIMAA

Visit Mikkeli 2024 / Procreate and Indesign

The booklet of Saimaa is a travel guide that introduces destinations in the Mikkeli and Puumala regions and highlights the uniqueness of Lake Saimaa. The guide was created in collaboration with Visit Mikkeli. The guide was also part of a thesis at the Lab Institute of Design and Fine Arts focusing on accessibility in printed materials. Accessibility is evident in the layout, illustration style, typography, and color choices. Also the information is presented as simply and consistently as possible. The booklets are available at the Mikkeli tourist information point throughout the summer of 2024.

Christmas market 2022 / Blender and Adobe Photoshop

The project was a part of our school’s annual Christmas market. The event was an opportunity for students to sell their art works and make new connections. I put into practice 3D modeling and made some abstract posters. The project was my first touch to 3D modeling.
