Hi, I’m Michelle Neriuoka and my biggest catch was a 36.5” lake trout!

While I’m not fishing, I like to experiment with analog and digital typography to capture a tone/mood that works to grab the audience’s attention. I love designing pretty much anything, but my favourites are brand identities, UX design, editorial, and package design.

My inspiration comes from spending time in nature hiking, swimming, paddleboarding, and of course, fishing. The beautiful colors of the plants, scenery, and sunsets, all find a way back to my work hobbies of painting, drawing, and photography.

Let’s catch something big together!

Expressive Ballet This expressive editorial layout focused on expressing the topic of the article through design decisions. A circular grid system is used to allow the typography to express movement like the dancers in the photographs. This is eye-catching and develops interest to viewers as it is a unique grid and connects the two elements. The typography incorporates shadows, layers, and fade outs to relate back to the images and draw viewer’s into the topic of the interview.
Engler Lake Lodge The logo for Engler Lake Lodge takes inspiration from the five of diamonds lure that has been a fisherman favourite for years. It creates a personal connection to the brand for many people when they see the brand identity. The words curve up and down to add dimension and the idea that the logo is on a lure. This adds a rustic and adventurous feel to the brand identity.
SC Experience The concept for the Sabrina Carpenter themed experience is to have a variety of rooms set up throughout a building where guests will walk through and experience each song on her album. Each room focuses on one song and guests will be able to move at their own pace. They can enjoy their favourite songs with friends and family while singing and dancing along to the music. Sabrina Carpenter’s brand is playful, flirty, and modern with bright colours and various symbols.
