PROJECT 1 -
BUGGIN’
FALL 2023
BRAND DEVELOPMENT - PACKAGE DESIGN - ILLUSTRATION + LETTERING - PRINT + WEB MEDIA
A seasonal subscription package that includes bug defense and garden enhancement products. Oriented towards the home gardener who wants to protect their produce and flowers from sneaky crawlers while being conscious of their gardens ecosystems and helpful insects.
I wanted this brand to be a playful retreat into childhood—a world painted with bright colors and silly doodles that celebrate the charm of insects without casting them as pests.
Each season, a new artist is chosen to design the artwork for the subscription box. The goal of the Flower Power - Spring Collection box is to protect against invasive beetle species and support luscious flower growth.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND
FALL 2023
TYPE + PAGE FORMATTING -
ILLUSTRATION - BOOK BINDING
This set of booklets delves into the interplay between structured typography and expressive illustrations + type, drawing readers into the surreal realm of Wonderland. While honoring the whimsical essence of Lewis Carroll's classic, I infused the artwork with my own eerie nuances. Each booklet is meticulously crafted using saddle stitching techniques and adorned with beaded spines, enhancing the tactile and visual experience.
PROJECT 4 -
GRAMPS
FALL 2024
Using Blender I brought the fragrance line Gramps to life. The bottle, packaging, backdrop, and props were all rendered from scratch.
Designed for those drawn to the nostalgic allure of cigarettes, worn leather, classic aftershave, aged books, and rich wood paneling. A scent collection that blurs the boundaries between classy and risqué, embodying the essence of vintage luxury.

Hi!
My name is Morgan, I’m glad you found me!
I just graduated from the University of Utah with a BFA in Graphic Design.
My work delves into playful and surreal themes, often inspired by the nostalgia and whimsy of my childhood. I enjoy combining those feelings with a twist of unsettling imagery, dancing the line of comfort and unease.
Crafting by hand is at the heart of my design process. Whether illustrating, creating hand-lettered typography, or assembling collages, I always start with a tactile approach before moving to digital tools. This method infuses my work with worldly textures and authentic qualities.
I’d love to colloborate and help bring your visions to life!
