Fun projects for the National Postal Museum

Work shown was completed while I was a designer at Gallagher & Associates.

The opening is set for March and I am excited. I’ve really enjoyed the content and being able to give a good amount of attention to a small exhibit. Here’s a sneak peak of the design development:
