email design
Emails need to work hard, but not too hard. Engage without distracting. Inform without overwhelming. Inspire while staying accessible. All while continuing the user on a clear path to conversion.
Made to Mix Email Series
Made to Mix—a furniture collection composed of interchangeable pieces that give a curated vibe, not your typical matchy-matchy look.
REQUEST
Introduce the story of Made to Mix, emphasizing that these home decor pieces are meant to be mixed up and can fit into any interior design style.
SOLUTION
I kept the visual identity of the program consistent yet interesting while engaging the user in a variety of ways. I designed an intro series that explains the new program, a collage series featuring curated moodboards with pieces collected over time, and a fun series that aligned different product aspects (color, shape, etc) with school subjects, signifying new, fun ways of categorizing products.

REQUEST
Add seasonal and social topics into brand awareness messages to be relatable and relevant to the target audience.

These are the projects I find most energizing—where timing, context, and design intersect. Knowing how and when to join the conversation is important, but finding those meaningful connections is so rewarding.

Style Email Series
Style emails—an initiative created to give users a new way of browsing products based on their own personal style.
REQUEST
Spotlight emerging home décor trends to evaluate whether consumers gravitate toward shopping by style versus traditional product categories, prioritizing aesthetic appeal over brand recognition.
SOLUTION
I had full creative freedom to design a custom branded look for each home décor style while also curating the featured products for each email. I intentionally showcased real products in the hero graphics, exploring creative ways to incorporate fabrics, textures, and select pieces where they felt most natural.
