She grew up in BC, and has her current office on an island off of Vancouver. She started her career as a book typesetter, she then went on to co-found a design studio called Digitopolis. Currently, she now works as a freelance designer and artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She published a book called I wonder and it was shortlisted for the British Design of the Year. She has since been published over 100 times in book books and magazines (Marian Bantjes,2022).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her work, she relies on an underlying structure. She then builds off of it to create a natural flow within her work. This is shown in the image below.\u00a0She establishes the text at 3\/4 of the pages and uses verticals to structure the title as the main focal point. She then breaks away from this structure for a more dynamic visual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"187\" height=\"187\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/jennaweind\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13251\/2022\/04\/bantjes_2006_sagmeister-T.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/jennaweind\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13251\/2022\/04\/bantjes_2006_sagmeister-T.jpg 187w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/jennaweind\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13251\/2022\/04\/bantjes_2006_sagmeister-T-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 187px) 100vw, 187px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Her type often has a lot of ornamental features.
