DESIGN THAT FINDS
ITS OWN WAY.

IDENTITY / EDITORIAL / DIGITAL

Make it
mean
something.

Selected explorations.

THE PRACTICE

A clear idea.
An unexpected
way of seeing it.

Alex Morgan is a fictional independent designer working where identity, editorial design, and digital experiences meet. The work shown here is original, self-initiated concept work—not a list of client commissions.

The approach is simple: find the idea, explore the possibilities, then keep refining until the details belong together.

Common Shapes

Original Common Shapes design study

A self-initiated identity system for a fictional community art space.

The question

How can a small community art space feel welcoming and recognizable across a noticeboard, a poster, and a screen?

The exploration

A limited vocabulary of circles and squares creates a flexible identity. Violet and acid yellow make the system easy to spot, while shifts in scale keep the compositions lively.

What it demonstrates

Original identity artwork, a poster direction, and a repeatable visual language for a fictional community space.

Self-initiated fictional concept. No client relationship or commercial result is implied.

A Little Closer

Original A Little Closer design study

A personal publication exploring rhythm, scale, and the everyday.

The question

How can a personal publication invite someone to slow down and look a little closer?

The exploration

A warm red line moves across a cream cover. Generous space and a literary serif establish an unhurried rhythm; the cover and surrounding colour work together as one editorial object.

What it demonstrates

Original cover artwork, editorial art direction, and a considered hierarchy for a self-initiated publication.

Self-initiated fictional concept. No client relationship or commercial result is implied.

Open System

Original Open System design study

An interface study for a fictional sound archive.

The question

How could a sound archive make a growing collection feel easy to enter without competing with the listening experience?

The exploration

A radial motif suggests a signal expanding outward. A restrained blue-and-cyan palette, clear alignment, and a simple graphic system give the imagined archive a strong digital identity.

What it demonstrates

Original digital art direction and a visual-system exploration for a fictional sound archive. This case study does not claim a live client application.

Self-initiated fictional concept. No client relationship or commercial result is implied.

Tell me the interesting bit.

Fictional studio. Nothing is sent.
