Role: Lead Designer/Brand Designer

Deliverables: Logo/Visual Identity, Brand Identity System, Social Media, PowerPoint/Presentation Templates

Objective

Build an identity that doesn't just represent Homebase — it feels like the community it was made for: young men of color at SDSU, backed by culture, connection, and each other.

Challenge

One identity, built to show up everywhere on campus — print, digital, physical — carrying empowerment and culture in every format.

Solutions

  • A complete toolkit — logo, type, color, motifs, and every piece of collateral — built to make Homebase felt everywhere on campus, not just seen.

Outcome

The result isn't just a brand — it's a reflection of the community it was built for, visible everywhere Homebase shows up.
