DESIGN CHALLENGE:

Design an engaging and

cohesive event identity

across media that announces

our 2026 Senior Show. It

must celebrate the Visual

Arts and Graphic Design

senior capstone work and

experiences. The design

must clearly inform, create

a call to action, and

capture the spirit of PLNU

and its graduates.

CREATIVE SOLUTION:

This campaign, with the

tagline “Labor of Love,”

was focused on the idea of

celebrating the remarkable

hard work of the artists

and designers in the PLNU

class of 2026. The quilt

primarily featured in

the poster is handmade,

and is intended to serve

as a visual symbol to

represent the enormous

efforts of fellow students

that remain unseen by

peers, family, friends,

and the outside world. A

quilt, often a symbol of

childhood or comforting

family memories, also

serves to evoke the same

feelings of bittersweet

nostalgia shared by the

class of 2026 as they close

a chapter of their time at

PLNU and prepare to embark

on a new one as creative

professionals.

CATEGORY: Campaign

CLIENT: PLNU Art + Design
