Mint
The most cohesive fit for the current site. The mint accent keeps the globe, project illustrations, and navigation in the same visual language.

Best fit for the main site: Mint.
It gives the globe and technical illustrations the most consistent setting. New York is the more personal alternative, with a clearer connection to where I live and study.
02 / Cool / dark
Cobalt
A navy background and pale blue accents. A quieter alternative with clear text contrast, though less distinctive than Mint or New York.
Explore Cobalt03 / Warm / light
Paper
Warm paper, charcoal text, and rust accents. Comfortable for reading the longer case studies; the technical illustrations keep their original colors.
Explore Paper04 / City edition
New York
The strongest personal direction. Transit colors, bold type, route markers, and a skyline connect the portfolio to life at NYU and in New York.
