My name is Derma L. Perez Rivera, I am dedicated to graphic design and illustration, my works express both areas, but illustration with a tender aesthetic and pleasing to the eye prevails more. I handle various styles of drawing such as realism, semi-realism, and even cartoon. The illustration I make go well with publishing industries. My designs can be for both digital and print media. I consider that my attitude, my contribution of ideas, my ability to adapt and communicate making the dynamics of receiving a brief or exchange of ideas result in a more efficient work that captures the essence of what you want to communicate.

Branding

What is the design thinking behind this color palette?

ORIGINAL

Colors

Palette The original chocolate flavor, from the bokoco chocolate brand, was the most challenging as it must contain all the essence of what the brand represents. It is the first flavor launched of the entire line of chocolate bars, so it is required to give it notoriety as the oldest flavor of all. Four of the brand's main colors are used and solid colors are added to emphasize the above argument. In general, all the flavors will use the same shape and some different elements will be integrated, in this case the cocoa leaves and the circles of the same tone that this fruit acquires over time are integrated. Much of the inspiration for this design falls on the tropical theme of the cocoa harvest in Puerto Rico.

11

MINT The color palette for the mint chocolate avor only uses three colors of the main branding; the fresh colors added to convey that feeling of freshness, but at the same time makes them more striking and even contains a pattern of spots alluding to the integration of both ingredients in this delicious bar.

Palette

STRAWBERRY

I implemented calm tones, alluding to the creaminess of the strawberry chocolate bar, which combines with four of the main colors, and thus maintain the coherence of colors proposed by the brand. The aim is to highlight the use of strawberry syrup through colors and shapes.

Just Run with me A design for t-shirts and Id cards for a hypothetical charity race on cancer.

34 Do you want to be my simp?

It is a design, with a romantic touch in mind, of the term Simp. The term means someone who does way too much for a person they like.

Flower Frame A colorful illustration with geometric patterns around a girl that looks through a ower frame.

36 Everything is ďŹ ne until you die The premise of the shirt is humor and it tells us that everything can be solved in life, except death.

This collection of t-shirt designs and illustrative calligraphy is about jovial and charismatic themes. It motivated me to mix my illustration styles and my experimental calligraphy style, then adapt it to a t-shirt.
