As an Resident Assistant at La Salle University, every semester we create name tags, or door decs, for our residents. Our staff decided against a building-wide theme for the spring 2023 semester, and I wanted to design door decs that felt “springy” but wouldn’t feel out of place going up in January. Immediately, I knew I wanted to design plants for my spring door decs, but instead of drawing typical spring flowers like daffodils and tulips, I decided succulents would be more fitting. They also coincided with my first bulletin board of the semester which displayed the title “Grow through what you go through.”

I designed these using Adobe Illustrator and created four variations because my residents all lived in quads. This way each roommate could get a different design on their door.
