Saul Bass Accordion Book
Graphic Design | PRINT 9X9 | 2023Saul Bass is one of the most influential designers of the 20th century. Bass was known for his iconic film title sequences, film posters, and corporate logos. With his work, he left a permanent imprint on the world of design.

‘67 summer of love icons
illustration | ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR | 2022The ‘67 Summer of Love played a major role in San Francisco’s history. It was a time for young people around the world to come together and speak out against the war and the growing power of capitalism in America. Through music and speech, so-called “hippies” promoted love, peace, and simple living.
Out of the three women here, one is experimenting with psychedelics and sexual freedom, one is connecting with nature by living within ecological restraints, and one is seeking a meaningful career through music. It was a liberating time for women, marking a step away from the 1950s' housewife ideals of “women cook and clean.”
Alphonse Mucha was a huge inspiration for these designs as he served as a basis for many of the concert posters created for the Summer of Love. His style was very soft, feminine, and empowering. The natural green juxtaposed with the warm yellow and saturated pink, reflects the organic, serene, and bright energy throughout the summer of love.
