Graphic Design

Graphic design is the foundation that everything else is built on: the discipline that teaches you that every choice is a choice, that negative space is doing work, and that typography has feelings. The projects here range from a politically charged series born out of genuine anger at the 45th president, to an undergrad thesis reinterpreting Guy Debord's Society of the Spectacle through a designer's lens, to a collaborative gallery where friends remade their favorite album covers just because it sounded fun.

That range is kind of the point. Some of this work is deeply personal. Some of it is client work with a surrealist twist. One project quietly wonders whether God is a shuffle person. Another is a photo essay that is, literally, a book about being human.

What this section makes clear is that Daniel came up as a print designer with a genuine love for the craft — the kind that comes from spending real time with type, layout, and the occasionally maddening question of whether something feels right yet. That instinct still lives in everything else he makes.
