Omnivert Personality

Omnivert Personality Type: 

The 'Transparent One'

Omnivert definition: both an extrovert and an introvert. Likes to spend their time by being with groups of people in low intensity environments and by spending time on their own. Similar to Ambiversion (see below).

Ambivert & Omnivert differences:

Ambivert: both an extrovert and an introvert. Likes to spend their time by being with groups of people in highly stimulating environments and by spending time on their own.

"Ambi" is both; meaning it has a mix of personality traits, colours you put it with, etc. A good name for this personality type is Chameleon due to it's ability to adapt its personality type according to the social situation.

Omnivert: both an extrovert and an introvert. Likes to spend their time by being with groups of people in low intensity environments and by spending time on their own. "Omni" is everywhere; meaning it has a blend of all personality traits and doesn't really have a specific colour, it's transparent. This personality type is known as Universal as it merges with all personality types. However, they can become withdrawn if presented with a situation they don't want and in social situations have to go within and acquire traits to fit in with their social environment.

A look at our unique personality traits:

As you're all probably aware (or maybe not) everybody has different personality traits. Based on two books I have read; Personality Plus by Florence Littauer and The Four Colour Personalities for MLM by Big Al, I have combined the learning styles of the two authors into this simple guide to describe the different types of people and their traits. Which one are you?

• Sanguine: The Entertainer; the talker, the optimist, the life of the party, loves people, seems exciting, makes friends easily.
• Melancholy: The Examiner; the thinker, the pessimist, analytical, deep and thoughtful, serious and purposeful, perfectionist, precise, likes charts, graphs and figures, makes friends cautiously.
• Choleric: The Chief; the doer, the optimist, born leader, compulsive need for change, must correct wrongs, strong willed and decisive, can run anything, has little need for friends but will work for group activities, will lead and organise, is usually right.
• Phlegmatic: The Healer; the watcher, the pessimist, low key personality, easygoing and relaxed, calm, cool and collected, patient, well balanced, consistent life, quiet but witty, sympathetic and kind, keeps emotions hidden, good listener, has many friends.
• Chameleon: The Flexible One; intuitive, the feeler and the thinker, loves being with friends in highly stimulating environments and spending time alone, adapts their personality to suit the social environment, can relate to anyone, doesn't start conversations with strangers, can be a mystery to friends, experiences changes in energy levels and mood.
• Universal: The Freedom Loving One; intuitive, the feeler and the thinker, loves being with friends in low intensity environments and spending time alone, goes within to acquire traits to suit the social environment, can relate to anyone, usually doesn't start conversations with strangers, can be a mystery to friends, experiences changes in energy levels and mood.

Breakdown of different personality types:

Based on some research I did on Myers Briggs 16 Personality Types here is a rough estimate of how many people fall under all the 6 different personality types. Omniverts make up about 20% of the population:

Examples of Famous Omniverts; real and fictional:

And finally...

For anyone who is familiar with Myers Briggs 16 Personality Types based on 8 extroverted personality types and 8 introverted personality types and Intuition, Sensing, Thinking, Feeling, Judging and Perceiving functions here is what you end up with when you combine all these senses together into one Ambivert and one Omnivert personality type:

3 Dimensional Leaflet Design

Illustration, Adobe-Photoshop, drawing

The aim of this promotional leaflet is to sell the Vitra international furniture collection in a dynamic way. The design reflects the 3 Dimensional aesthetics of a contemporary furniture design range. Influences for the leaflet design include the architecture of Tate Modern and exhibition designs.

The furniture designs use illustration techniques taken from rough sketches and mock-ups and then rendered in Photoshop.

The project was difficult to do and involved a lot of experimental work which pulled the project together well. Vitra is a growing international furniture design company and I have helped distribute some of their products in my field of work.

D&AD Brief

Graphic Design, Adobe-Photoshop, drawing

Design a contemporary 3D Toy for a boy or girl aged 3-8 years that encourages interaction and imaginative play.

The designs started off as a rough sketch using just pencil and paper. I then carefully drew over the template using a felt tip. The template was scanned, then edited in photoshop. I used the measuring tools in photoshop, such as the polygonal lasso tool and rectangular marquee tool to neaten up the edges and the painting tools. I had to create a few layers for the logo using the layer styles; such as stroke, inner shadow and drop shadow to make the objects stand out and the text was layered on top. Designs were saved using JPEG format and also psd for re-editing.

The development and mock-ups lead to a pleasing and workable solution for this project.

Re-designing Bentley Tile Centre

Logo Design, Adobe-Photoshop

My client wanted a new logo design for Bentley Ceramics called "Bentley Tile Centre." The goal was to make the logo look more colourful and attractive to attract new customers. I did a few samples for my client.

I created the designs using Adobe Photoshop CS4. I used Eurostyle font in Bold and Regular in text sizes 72 and 30 at a resolution of 150 pixels/ inch. Images saved in JPEG format.
