Project Name
my role / year

Team, early sketches, or product in use

Overview

Content (2–3 lines max)

  • What this illustration explores

  • Why it exists conceptually

  • What role it plays (exploration, narrative, study)

Example

A conceptual illustration exploring color restraint, material contrast, and form as a storytelling tool.

This mirrors CMF “project brief” language.

Visual Intent

Short paragraphs with bullets for key points:
Market trends
Competitor analysis
Material feasibility / testing
User or ergonomic insights

Visuals:
Mood boards / trend boards
Material swatches
Photos of inspiration, sketches, or research notes.

Purpose: Echo CMF strategy language.

Content

  • Core idea or narrative

  • Emotional or tonal goal

  • Design principles (yes — same idea as CMF)

Example

  • Warm minimalism

  • Soft contrast

  • Tactile visual language

Think of this as CMF principles without physical materials.

Color & Form

Every decision we make is shaped by a clear sense of purpose. Our journey has been anything but ordinary. Through every step, we've focused on staying true to our values and making space for thoughtful, lasting work.

What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead.

Purpose: Directly parallel CMF Strategy.

Content

  • Color palette rationale

  • Line quality or shape logic

  • Texture or shading approach

  • Balance between softness and structure

Visuals

  • Color swatches

  • Cropped illustration details

  • Side-by-side tonal variations

Example caption

A limited palette reinforces clarity and focus, allowing form and negative space to carry the narrative.

Exploration

Read only / Delete before publishing

Purpose: Show process without overexposure.

Content

  • Early sketches

  • Alternative compositions

  • What changed and why

Visuals

  • Sketch → refined progression

  • 2–3 iterations only (edit tightly)

This directly mirrors CMF prototyping.

Final Outcome

Implementation / Final Outcome

Heading: Final Outcome

Purpose: Let the work speak.

Content

  • Large, clean presentation

  • Optional detail crops

  • No over-description

This section should visually match your CMF “Final Product” sections.

Reflection

Reflection / Key Takeaways

  • Heading: Reflection

    Content (2–3 lines)

    • What this explores

    • How it informs broader design thinking

    • Connection to material, color, or narrative

    Example

This work explores illustration as a material language—communicating tactility and emotion through restraint and composition.
