"You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have"
Maya Angelou
Hi there! My name is Manon Kugler and I am a second-year student at Mount Royal University's Bisset School of Business, majoring in marketing.
I am passionate about graphic design because it allows me to hone my creative skills. I have always taken on creative roles in group projects and have found success in this area. This website serves as a showcase of some of my best work.
I have been using Canva for several years to design various materials such as business cards, brochures, information cards, and posters for class assignments and when I was operating a business as a student entrepreneur in high school.
Feel free to reach out to me or check out my Linkedin profile.
My Projects
SubZero
Windshield Company
I participated in the Junior Achievement Company program during high school, where I collaborated with other students who had an entrepreneurial spirit to launch a company called SubZero. We supplied windscreen coverings for the winter. I held the role of vice president of marketing and was responsible for overseeing the marketing division. Utilizing Canva, I designed the packaging, logo, business cards, and information cards that were used to promote and attract potential customers for our product.

CHEVALIER
Luxury Car Company
I created these marketing materials as part of my continuing education graphic design class at the University of Calgary. The company, named Chevalier, which means knight in French, is a luxury car company. The knight in the logo represents both the driver and the car. The brand promotes values such as excellence, perseverance, and honesty, similar to a knight. The safety and reliability of the car are symbolized by the knight and his horse's armour. The white star on the upper right symbolizes quality, power and adventure. The design of the knight on horseback in action emerging out of the logo makes it unique.

Brochure Design
Information design
The objective of this assignment was to design a brochure that would be used by the marketing department at Mount Royal University (MRU) to promote the school's information design program. The goal was to create a brochure that aligned with MRU's style, colours, and aesthetic, while also incorporating the various theories, concepts, and techniques learned in class. The target audience for this brochure was prospective students, specifically recent high school graduates considering enrolling in the bachelor's degree program at MRU for the upcoming academic year. As a recent high school graduate myself, I wanted to make the process of researching the program easier by providing a straightforward and informative brochure that had all the necessary information
Creative World Bags
School Bags for Kids
In my introduction to marketing class, I was assigned to create designs as part of a simulation exercise which focused on a backpack product. The objective was to showcase the marketing decisions I made for my fictional company, Creative World Bags, and to target young children and their parents, who are a significant part of our target demographic.

Poster Designs
I am Saki Mafundikwa
For my information design class, I was assigned to create a poster that highlighted the significant contributions of Saki Mafundikwa to the design industry. I conducted thorough research and carefully selected the elements to showcase his achievements in the most creative and visually pleasing way while maintaining a specific aesthetic. As he places a high importance on Afrikan typography, I hand-sketched it in various styles around him, utilizing the colors of the Zimbabwean flag as a symbol of his homeland and Africa. To add a call-to-action, I incorporated a QR code that directs visitors to a website where they can learn more about Mafundikwa's life and works
Magazine Designs
Arpeggio
As part of the continuing education graphic design requirements at the University of Calgary, I was assigned to design a magazine cover for a hypothetical beverage. It was essential for me to maintain a specific style that conveyed both luxury and modernity in my design, and I feel that I succeeded in achieving that
