The Works is an annual two-volume publication showcasing graduating seniors from the BFA Graphic Design and BFA Advertising programs at the School of Visual Arts. As Art Director, I have overseen the publication’s evolution from its origins as a single volume into two distinct yet formally connected books, each reflecting its department while sharing a cohesive visual language.

The covers have established a tradition of bold, high-impact design, often employing fluorescent color and customized typography. Shown here are selected covers from volumes 1–6. Inside (of the most recent editions) you will find standout student work is interwoven with editorial features documenting lectures, workshops, awards, and academic life, presented in a punchy, art-school vernacular that balances expressive energy with clarity.
