Hello! I'm Ryan Morrison.

This award-winning sign design was created to commemorate k.d. lang's induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame. Crafted with real neon tubing, the design was chosen as the competition winner and is now proudly installed in the heart of Downtown Edmonton's Neon Sign Museum.

To expand my branding expertise and explore product design, I took on a personal project centered around 3D package design. By defining a clear scope of work, I was able to delve into the intersection of branding and 3D visualization. This project brought together Adobe Dimension for 3D modeling and rendering, Illustrator for logo and graphic creation, and Photoshop for post-production—showcasing my ability to merge creativity with technical skill.

After graduating from the Graphic Communications program at NAIT, I focused on refining my design skills and developing my unique creative voice. This logo reflects that dedication, blending my passion for impactful visuals with a commitment to thoughtful design. It’s a piece I’m truly proud to share.

Driven by a desire to grow and evolve as a designer, I challenged myself with this personal Illustrator project, stepping into unfamiliar territory. Through experimentation with blends and paths, I transformed initial uncertainty into newfound confidence and technical skill.

MoonGum Creative is my personal brand, embodying creativity and playfulness. The logo features a flowing line that forms an 'M' and transitions into a 'G,' with a pink circle accent and the word 'MoonGum' beneath it. A monochromatic color scheme keeps the design bold and versatile. Tsuki, the brand’s quirky mascot, adds a unique layer of personality to the overall identity.

For my final project at NAIT, our class was challenged to illustrate an object using the gradient mesh tool. I chose a Dyson vacuum, captivated by its innovative and intricate design. This project allowed me to showcase my skills by bringing its complex details to life with precision and creativity.

This 3D signage concept for 'Silent Ice' allowed me to explore innovative designs using Adobe Dimension, elevating our studio’s approach to architectural signage. I created dynamic day and night renderings to showcase its impact in varying lighting. While the client chose an alternative solution, this project marked a milestone in refining my skills and pushing creative boundaries.

Inspired by Bauhaus design principles, I created this poster as a personal exploration beyond my usual design style. Free from deadlines, this project allowed me to focus on broadening my creative skill set and experimenting with bold, abstract forms. My aim was to spark imagination, encouraging viewers to interpret the design in their own unique way.

Developing my skills in 3D visualization, I created this rendering in Adobe Dimension to explore the potential of ray tracing and material properties. The composition features a dynamic arrangement of glass, colored plastics, and a semi-transparent material, contrasted against a yellow background to highlight the interplay of light and shadow.
