The Imperfectly Perfect
The Imperfectly Perfect is a curated booklet envisioned and designed during my first year of interior design studies. It was developed as a source of inspiration — a personal catalog of designers, architects, and creative thinkers whose work would guide my developing design identity throughout the academic year. The publication brings together diverse disciplines including architecture, interior design, furniture design, graphic design, animation, fashion, art, and transportation design. Each category is structured with profiles of influential figures, accompanied by researched text and selected visuals.
Booklet Design Project
I was responsible for the full creative direction of the booklet — from the selection of referenced designers to writing, image curation, visual organization, and print layout. The design adopts a clean and minimal editorial approach, giving space to iconic imagery and key facts while keeping a consistent typographic rhythm across pages. The structure encourages exploration: readers discover not only well-known pioneers like Mies van der Rohe or Coco Chanel but also lesser-acknowledged innovators whose ideas enrich the broader design landscape.
Even now, The Imperfectly Perfect remains a foundation of my academic journey — a reminder of where my design inspirations began, and how curiosity will always shape my growth as a designer.
