01 / The project

Turn everyday tasks
into a clear system.

I designed a practical guide for the Costco Gloucester wine section: visual standards, daily routines and a planogram.

I brought display guidance and recurring tasks into one easy-to-follow reference.

My focus was clarity: help the team find what they need, understand it quickly and come back to it later.

02 / Design approach

A practical guide.
A consistent language.

I used bold headings, numbered steps and photos to make the guidance easy to scan.

I carried red and blue through the callouts and kept the instructions short and direct.

01 / Visual design

Make it scannable.

I gave key instructions room to stand out.

02 / Standards

Show the reference.

I paired photos with diagrams so the team could see the standard.

03 / Ongoing procedures

Build a repeatable rhythm.

I connected daily checks, planning and upkeep in a repeatable flow.

03 / Spatial thinking

From individual displays
to the whole aisle.

I mapped the aisle with colour-coded wine sections, lettered bays and an end-cap view.

This was a planning example, built to make placement and category decisions easier to discuss.

Design that supports everyday work

Make the information
work as hard as the team.

I help turn everyday information into something people can actually use.
