Southeast Asian Cultural Festival Poster & Branding
Adobe Illustrator | 12”x 18 Collaboration with Design Streak Colleague Payton Eddy
This poster was designed in collaboration with a fellow intern at Design Streak studio for the Spring 2025 Southeast Asian Cultural Festival, hosted by our clients at ISU’s Office of International Engagement alongside Heartland Community College. The client requested that the flyer visually represent the activities taking place at the festival while keeping the theme of Southeast Asian culture and heritage.
This festival was open to all students from both Illinois State and Heartland, and represented a wide variety of countries, so designing with close consideration to cultural authenticity while also keeping subject matter somewhat non-specific and digestible was key. My group focused on designing around the Filipino Tinikling demonstration at the festival- a traditional dance that involves intricate movement around crossed sticks of bamboo. The central information was placed within a bamboo-stick frame as the focal point, accented by geometric decorative elements inspired by traditional Southeast Asian textiles to section additional information off. This poster was chosen by the client and used across both campuses to advertise the festival.
