The Aspiring Times
My CV/Resume Mailer
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was browsing through The New York Times archive over a morning coffee when I
got hit with an interesting idea. "Why do all traditional publications look so.. traditional?"
So I took the challenge of taking the formal qualities of a newspaper and translate it into
something modern and elegant (but still maintain its authentic quality). It just so happened
that this idea could create an interesting resume mailer that I was eager to begin. With
twenty weeks of school left for me, this all sounded like a great opportunity to hit the sketch-
book! I consider myself a conceptual designerthat loves typography. With that said, wanted
my CV to highlight my strengths so I focused on an interactive, conceptual design derived
from clean type.

All the headlines in the publication were custom, newly created Typography.
Professional & Well-Rounded. Yup.. that's me.
Lets have coffee. First cup is on me.
