App DESIGN
Problem:
In 2020, the entire world entered into a global pandemic due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) causing 138 million people in the world to contract COVID-19, and over 2 million people to lose their lives. Applications were developed to help reduce cases and deaths, however many of these apps did not provide adequate information a person would need to navigate living in the world with the virus. Many of these apps tend to only focus on one aspect in making life become more adaptable with the virus. For example, the focus would be primarily on awareness and statistics, there are applications that were made for awareness and how to determine symptoms and others that were developed to locate testing and vaccine sites. While all all of these are necessary to have, it was not efficient way for users to gain access to COVID-19 related resources and information.
Process:
The team researched other applications that strived to make people aware about the virus, how to stay safe and remain knowledgeable about what to do if COVID-19 was contracted, and information about vaccinations. This was the first step of knowing what should be presented to users. The team fact checked data with the CDC to prevent misinformation being released. We designed the app with the intention of making information concise & accessible.
Problem:
Process:
PEACE WITH GOD, LLC's website was developed without a specified design strategy to reflect its goals as an e-commerce business and developing luxury brand. The website lacked consistency in color, not all of its images displayed the full design of the clothing or accessories, and the domain name included the name of the website builder. Furthermore, the web tool used to build the company's site had limited features for design purposes which interfered with the overall vision PEACE WITH GOD had for optimal engagement with users.
The business conducted thorough research of what appealed to users from competing e-commerce brands, which provided a luxurious, smooth and modern experience for the customer. Being inspired, PEACE WITH GOD developed a new design strategy which included an upgrade to many of its features and components for its current design that is now in progress.
*The design contains a display of what each page will possibly look like. It is still a work in progress. Some of the design is responsive, some isn't.

PEACE WITH GOD is a clothing brand rooted out of Romans 5:1- “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ...” The mission is to provide believers comfortability in fashion while displaying the totality of who God is in the midst of the perilous times we live in. When we are declared righteous through believing in Jesus and making peace with Him, we now have hope and access to preeminent gifts and power that serve as the inspiration for the merch that is inspired by God, designed by me.
With a passion for fashion, music and technology, Stephen has had the opportunity to put Jesus on display through designing clothes, hosting worship sessions, and producing video and music content under PEACE WITH GOD. He hopes to continue to expand the brand as God shows him a vision that spreads the truth to impact the lost and found in loving & limitless ways.

"Yes, furthermore, I count everything as loss compared to the possession of the priceless privilege (the overwhelming preciousness, the surpassing worth, and supreme advantage) of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord and of progressively becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him [of perceiving and recognizing and understanding Him more fully and clearly]. For His sake I have lost everything and consider it all to be mere rubbish (refuse, dregs), in order that I may win (gain) Christ (the Anointed One)"
-Apostle Paul, Philippians 3:8

FASHION DESIGN
Problem:
Not many Christian brands value people learning and sharing the gospel while simultaneously designing high quality, fashionable pieces that allows believers of the faith to wear clothing comfortably in any setting or style. This causes brands in the Christian community to look the same and usually appeal to a small group of people.
Process:
With inspiration and transformation at the forefront of PEACE WITH GOD, performing research on successful luxury brands with a similar goal to inspire customers beyond the clothing itself was key. Looking up interviews on the CEO & Brand Designers to learn about their thought process and unique approach was equally important. Furthermore, locating effective tools for creating designs with broad resources and templates for inspiration, finding high quality clothing material and going through a trial and error process of determining what fits and feels luxurious was all a part of tedious process well worth it. Going beyond the intent of making a profit by patiently designing to produce unusual, groundbreaking clothing for believers to embrace an artistic form of sharing Biblical truth became a driving force that kept PEACE WITH GOD moving forward.
