exchange portfolio
DESCRIPTION
This portfolio is a gathering of several projects Genevieve completed during her graphic design studies at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco.TRANSCRIPT
This book is divided into 12 sections I have called “exchange”. It draws a parallel between my work and my life experiences through change and movement, but also my favorite part ofthe design process: the exchange that occurs between designersof a team, designers and clients, companies and consumers,designs and consumers. Because it is thanks to that exchange, that the design industry is possible and more rich. A common visual thread throughout the portfolio was then created with page layouts, type setting and the choice of imagery.

These common household products do not look like your regular trashcan, or humidifier, and can beproudly put on display. IN stands for interior decoration and style.These products can become great conversation pieces and promote an exchange through conversation, but also show how design can play a role in linking different items to one brand.

inspiration
Bold graphics, patterns made out of other shapes, such as the bottle shape, which represents the recycling process. Icons to communicate an idea quickly and effectively, such as the light bulb, or the house symbol. The introduction of dots as the rep-resentation of pollution, and mechanical diagram to showcase the solutions found through nature and science.

GMUND COMP-ANY
Fine paper from Gmund has been creating fine paper for almost 180 years. The basis for this confidence in our expertise and in the aesthetic power of our paper is an active company philosophy that is reflected in every detail of the Büttenpapierfabrik Gmund.
The founder of the company Johann Nepomuk Haas was the first to commit himself to the production of the finest hand-made paper to particular quality standards. The Kohler family, who has been running the company since 1904, not only continued this tradition but also developed it to suit the times.
The Gmund company has set high standards in the choice of materials, which they acquire from all over the world. For their production they use exclusively selected raw materials that are characterised by the highest purity and stability. These include chlorine-free bleached and FSC certified (FSC MIX) special pulp or natural cotton rags. Dyes and pigments as lightfast as possible — naturally free from heavy metals — and also high-quality minerals and fillers are further requirements for the acid-free, non-ageing quality of our paper.

DITCHYOURCAR Avoiding 10 miles of driving every week would
eliminate about 500 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions a year.
The majority of car trips people make are under two miles, so that should be easy to swap driving
for a bike or public transit.
If driving is unavoidable, trading your gas-guzzler for a hybrid or more gas-efficient car helps. Aim
for a car that gets at least 30 mpg.
Or go without your own wheels and use car-sharing services like Zipcar.

MAIN-TAIN YOURHOME
Cleaning a dirty air filter, wrapping your hot water heater in an insulation blanket, properly insulating your walls and windows, and caulking and weather stripping can save a total of 5,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year, according to
Nudge your thermostat up two degrees in the summer and down two degrees in the winter to withhold another 2,000 pounds of CO2.
Buying appliances with the Energy Star certification and installing a programmable thermostat helps too. You get your reward in lower gas and electric bills.

Americans use 2,500,000 plastic bottles every hour! Most of them are thrown away!
Plastic bags and other plastic garbage thrown into the ocean kill as many as 1,000,000 sea creatures every year!
Recycling plastic saves twice as much energy as burning it in an incinerator.
Americans throw away 25,000,000,000 Styrofoam coffee cups every year.
According to the Beverage Marketing Corp, the average American consumed 1.6 gallons of bottled water in 1976. In 2006, that number jumped to 28.3 gallons.
Recycling 1 ton of plastic saves 7.4 cubic yards of landfill space.

PLASTIC RECYCL-
ING FACTS
Every month, we throw out enough glass bottles and jars to fill up a giant skyscraper. All of these
jars are recyclable!
The energy saved from recycling one glass bottle can run a 100 watt light bulb for four
hours. It also causes 20% less air pollution and 50% less water pollution than when a new
bottle is made from raw materials.
A modern glass bottle would take 4000 years or more to decompose — and even longer if it's
in the landfill.
Mining and transporting raw materials for glass produces about 385 pounds of waste for
every ton of glass that is made. If recycled glass is substituted for half of the raw
materials, the waste is cut by more than 80%.

GLASS RECYCL-ING FACTS
ALUMINUM RECYCL-
ING FACTSA used aluminum can is recycled and back on the grocery shelf as a new can, in as little as 60 days.
Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours — or the equivalent of a half a gallon of gasoline.
An aluminum can that is thrown away will still be a can 500 years from now!
There is no limit to the amount of times an aluminum can be recycled.
A 60 watt light bulb can be run for over a day on the amount of energy saved by recycling 1 pound of steel. In one year in the United States, the recycling of steel saves enough energy to heat and light 18,000,000 homes!
*****
To produce each week's Sunday newspapers, 500,000 trees must be cut down.
If every American recycled just one-tenth of their newspapers, we would save about
25,000,000 trees a year.
The average American uses seven trees a year in paper, wood, and other products made from
trees. This amounts to about 2,000,000,000 trees per year!
Each ton (2000 pounds) of recycled paper can save 17 trees, 380 gallons of oil, three cubic
yards of landfill space, 4000 kilowatts of energy, and 7000 gallons of water. This
represents a 64% energy savings, a 58% water savings, and 60 pounds less of air pollution!

Update an existing tea line packaging’s look and feel without losing its key attributes.
overview
Twinings is famous for its cream and black packaging, and its long British heritage. But how can its look and feel change to compete against other similar tea lines, while being true to its history?

outcome
Twinings’ emblem has been reincorporated on top on the tea tins, while the wordmark is used instead, when space is at a premium. A mix of black and white labels and tins with soft highlight colors differentiate the different flavors,and create amore premium, bold look and feel. The choice of a serif typeface for the type treatment, relates directly to the Twinings wordmarkand the more traditional aspect of the company. But the oversized,cropped type creates a more modern, edgy look. It also creates an interaction between the tins when they are placed next to eachother, as if an exchange was happening.

overview
The German beer festival known as Oktoberfest, is the original festival celebrating beer, German folklore and good cheer. Yet its identity does not reflect today’s Germany or the highlight of the festival: the drink-ing of local German beer and the gathering of people from all over the country, Europe and the world.
