A Design Presence: CV, Letterhead and Invoice

After looking at a few CV's I decided that mine would be very minimal in its design elements, I didn't want it to go form being too untraditional as it may put potential employers off reading it. 

I incorporated the identity style I had created by using stokes and a header and footer bar in the powder green. I also clearly defined each section by having an under and overlain the subject title in a capitalised font with space between the letters makes them stand out.

As for the design skills I marked myself out of five, I felt ten would be too many dots and they might of just become a blur. 




After designing my CV I moved onto my letterhead, which is an even more simplified format of the one above.

This provided the basis for my invoice, which has extra elements added into the page, this is so that the stationary is coherent and recognisable. 


The final stationary was printed onto a natural cream stock 135gsm, however when it came to photographing I could not find the stationary I had had printed and so I had to reprint onto normal 80gsm paper to have them ready! which was frustrating but the actual ones matched the other deliverables I had created.
