The project consists of a five page microsite ordered by Microsoft Germany.
The goal here is to merchandize a new project through the CHIP website.
The customer wanted to build a complete microsite in CHIP’s Look and Feel. For this purpose, I designed a desktop and mobile layout based on CHIP’s internal C.D. (corporate design) using the content from Microsoft. The microsite is responsive.
This project was challenging, but also a great opportunity to work cross-disciplinary and take different roles, such as concept, UX & UI designer.
Collaborating between CHIP and TechRadar, a UK based leading authority in the hitech industry, I redesigned the download homepage and detailed-page of Techradar using components, colors and typography of the existing CHIP download page. The challenge was to integrate the existing CHIP download layout into techradar by following C.D.(corporate design) aspects of both companies.
In the context of company participation, in annual B2RUN marathon, I created a cross functional layout for company T-Shirts as well as for the beachflag. The idea behind the layout was to create a “space” around the BurdaForward Logo surrounding it with several company logos like FocusOnline, CHIP, NetMoms, Huffington Post Germany, The Weather Channel and Finanzen100. BurdaForward is a leading digital publisher throughout Germany. It owns huge portfolio of German famous journalistic websites and Apps and belongs to Hubert Burda Media.
The same motive will be used for B2RUN T-Shirt Design of BurdaForward Companies located in Hamburg and Cologne as well as for various BurdaForward company representational purposes.
Expertiger GmbH ordered a four-page microsite in order to merchandize computer services that they offer to customers. I was responsible for creating a four-page Microsite for desktop and mobile, using their content. Initially I made a concept and designed the layout and when I got a green signal from the customers, I implemented the front-end part too, creating fully responsive pages. Finally it was also my responsibility to integrate the content into the CMS system of the CHIP website.
This project was created as part of my fine art and multimedia study at Ludwigs-Maximilians-University Munich.
The interactive room installation transforms the emotions of the user into different room experiences. Therefore, different patterns occur corresponding to the user's movements and merge with each other. The installation considers ten different emotions and detects the movements via a motion sensor (Microsoft Kinect). These include: openness (moving forward), closeness (moving backward), joy (jumping), sadness (kneel down), balance (standing still), unrest (moving left and right), loneliness (embrace yourself), liveliness (moving arms upwards), wistfulness (moving arms towards the body) and aversion (moving arms away from the body).
The motion sensor detects these movements, recognizes the corresponding emotions and transforms them into emotional expressive patterns, which create a new ambience and thereby, influence the mood of the user.
The interaction can be explored under guidance or intuitively.
For the first BurdaForward company summer event, I created a multipurpose design used for email invitations, welcome posters, wallpaper presentations and the desk screen meant for the speakers at the event.
The challenge was to create a design which is based on the BurdaForward company C.D.(corporate design), fits the event claim “SambaForward” and simply spreads good feelings and creates a summer atmosphere.
Working as a designer requires an up-to-date portfolio with presentable design works. In this context, I began conceptualizing a website-portfolio with the aim of presenting myself as a web designer, an artist and a fashion designer as well as highlight the skills I have acquired over the years.
I implemented a wide range of goals, which gave me the responsibility in areas such as concept finishing with implementation.
Initially I made brainstorming about the content I am going to represent through portfolio. Next I created designs for all categories. Finally I implemented it using HTML, CSS und JavaScript. The Page is fully responsive and optimized for tablet and mobile views as well.
Paintings have always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mother always said I first learnt to paint and then to write. As you may have noticed from some of the projects I undertook, my favorite areas are portraits and abstract arts. I believe that the basis of this phenomenon is my keen interest in human beings and our various characters. Through painting I can fully express myself, free from constraints that we are often confronted with in our daily routines.
In these paintings, I experiment with different colors, shapes, lines, forms, materials and the proportion of the human body. A number of different techniques like gouache, watercolor, pencil, ink, pastel color have been employed to bring to life my feelings, experience and imagination.
The vernissage "Visuals from homeland (Original title: Erscheinungen aus der Heimat)" are comprised of numerous paintings and a few dress designs which were inspired by my various interactions at Yerevan and Munich.
The event turned out to be really successful as there were more than 150 attendees from different areas of life and the overall response was very encouraging. The exhibition was covered by a famous German TV channel Bayerischer Rundfunk.
I created this collection as a graduation project for my fashion degree studies. The main motivation was to demonstrate that it was possible for women to exude feminity with a minimalist style. Note that designing, creation of patterns, tailoring were all performed by me.
The following are inspirational works created at various times; designing, creation of patterns, tailoring were all performed by me.
