I'm Kirsten F. Robb, a creative from Kansas City who is fascinated with the cute, creepy and curious aspects of life. When I'm not designing, I enjoy cooking, roller blading, watching spooky movies and getting scared of creaks in the night. When I'm not at a desk, my mind is still on creating. I have my own company, Rootcat, where I get to explore a vast range of concepts and media. Vintage glassware, packaging at thrift stores, retro 70's magazine ads and dramatic 80's horror book covers inspire my art. Email me when you're ready to get started on your favorite new project.

Unchanging Tides is a series of three layer screen prints I made into an animation. It’s inspired by the speed of the modern age, current trends and trying to find one’s identity in the shuffle. You can see the crashing wave in augmented reality by using Artivive or view the animation on my website kirstenfrobb.com

These are just a few of the many print materials I designed from scratch and with templates within UCM’s branding guide while working at Integrated Marketing and Communications. Over the two years working for IMC, I improved my layout design skills, photo editing skills and attention to detail through these projects. I feel much more prepared for the design world thanks to the great leaders who encouraged me to make my best work for my university.

Roly Poly is a clothing brand made for playful kids with sensory processing disorder. This branding guide and space construction was designed for their comfort. The branding guide includes the primary and secondary logos, why they were chosen, when to use them, the color palette, usable fonts, merch in mockups and more. The space design includes flat plans of the rooms, photos of a 3D model, signage and lists materials needed to construct it. This project was a blast from deciding to use cotton based carpet to building the roly poly booklets. It makes me exciting to do more space and branding design.

Changing channels… This piece is called Garden Gates and is inspired by The Garden of Earthly Delights. I made a 24x24 collage, printed out transparencies of the cyan, magenta, yellow and black layers then printed them one by one with an M&R Saturn press. It was an amazing process to see the layers come together to create a full color image

Wanna get into some trouble? These Flying Dog labels were inspired by aggressive, dirty and dangerous design. They were made using relief prints carved from linoleum blocks to achieve that messy, punk style. Visit their website at flyingdog.com/beer-finder/ to find their products near you.
