Applied design inquiry · New Earth OJT · July 2026
Bringing a team’s existing ideas into a coherent identity, artist-page concept and working structure — then letting feedback change the boundaries of the work.
Public review edition · 18 October 2026. A sanitized portfolio reconstruction, not the original label website or a claim of commercial launch.

01 · Context & contribution
The OJT assignment asked teams to develop a record-label concept, identity, roles and release infrastructure. I joined an existing team with ideas, sketches and an emerging mission. The work below does not erase those prior contributions.
I independently developed and compared logo proposals, synthesized a visual system, designed artist-page concepts and organized an eight-section Command Center. A supervisor and the group reviewed the work; implementation and presentation were AI-assisted.
Evidence basis: New Earth OJT project briefs; Logo Development and Brand Identity decks; project correspondence dated July 17–27, 2026. Private originals are preserved, not republished here.
02 · Design decisions
The logo-development work compared five variants and discussed how an architectural mark, an open arch and letter-based forms could express the label concept. This was criteria-led design review, not five controlled experiments or an audience-validated preference study.
Emerald, warm ivory and antique gold connect the identity and editorial presentation. The aim was a coherent system across label-level material and individual artist pages, rather than unrelated promotional layouts.
Evidence basis: the July 2026 logo-development and brand-identity decks. The simplified palette strip is a new presentation of those design choices.
03 · Artist-page concept
Fictional example · not an original artist
A short artist introduction would sit here, followed by approved work and a clearly attributed story.
No audio or artist photograph is included in this public review.
Schematic reconstruction made for this review, not an archival screenshot. Artist names and personal material are deliberately absent.
04 · Feedback & revision
Content feedback made approval and publication boundaries a design requirement. I proposed written content approval and restricted the prototype to private review.
Keep unapproved material in private review.
Confirm the exact asset, context and intended use.
Record written approval before public release.
Evidence basis: July 23–27, 2026 project correspondence. This diagram represents my proposal; it is not evidence that the team adopted or tested the workflow.
05 · Outcome & limits
The retained artifacts show design development, synthesis and response to critique. My participation ended; the work remains part of my design practice. This review does not claim label adoption, commercial performance, user satisfaction or educational effectiveness.
