The Positive Deviance Project

A Toolkit & interactive website design for seeking “brightspots” – a project teaching about Positive Deviance.

“This comes out of the K12 Lab, specifically the work of Jess Brown, Louie Montoya, and sam seidel. We hope it will be useful to the d.school community beyond the K12 Lab.”

Toolkit Design

I designed and illustrated a 71-page toolkit for this K-12Labs by way of the Stanford d.School; including everything from font selection to color palette, custom icons to layout design, as well as establishing brand standards that would later be used to design seekingbrightspots.com, which houses this project.

Website Design

From wireframing and concept design I worked with K12Labs to design an interactive website, built on Squarespace, for educators to learn about and implement Positive Deviance in their own work.

The client may have since made their own edits to their website, so parts of it no longer reflects the original design I created.

Interactive Map & Event Installation

I worked with BLACspace’s team to design an interactive map for folks to learn more about their seed members both online, and at in-person events and online.
