I have not been diligent about keeping this blog updated, but this quarter I produced some things that I am really proud of so I am going to post them!

Package, logo, product, branding a business card design for the fictional fragrance company 'Ol'factory'



Illustration of one of the 7 sins: Gluttony

Illustration of a creation myth: The water wagtail based on an Ainu creation myth.

Website Redesign for Eco-Sphere

For an assignment I had to redesign a website. I chose to give eco-sphere.com a makeover, because I love their products but their web design is a little 90's.

Redesign:

There's still a few bugs I need to work out before I'm going to put it up on rlemker.com, but I think it's blog worthy at the moment.

Crab Shack Brand Identity Redesign

For an assignment I had to do a total redesign of the Crab Shack restaurant on Tybee island. I want to get proper photos of the prints taken before I put it up on my personal site, but here's the raw images for everything in the meantime:

Logo
They didn't have much of a cohesive logo before, but they did have this strange mascot character that was featured on T-shirts, billboards, and other commercial items.
