This Blog has Moved.










Hi! This blog has moved to here It is my personal website and I thought it would be best to keep all my personal projects and work related content together along with my personal portfolio. I also have a blog for my personal interest which is outside of graphic design and focuses on:


  • yummy homemade recipes, good hearty meals which are often quick as i live a busy lifestyle in the city.
  • gardening - space is limited in London, however you can grow your own in the smallest of spaces! wether its a windowsill, balcony or tiny garden.
  • Cats! those cute crazy pets that have a love hate relationship with their owners! I post from time to time some photography and typically my two domestic felines are often in the spotlight.
The content of the blog continues to grow as its still finding its feet. You can follow it here, i would love to know your thoughts especially if you have tried any of the recipes for  yourself.

The Gathering Goddess

After making the big move to London in August, I eventually found a Graphic design internship where I have been working for the past 3 months. I have now finished with them, however I have really enjoyed producing the marketing material for their websites and social media platforms. 

I thought i'd share with you all some of the hard work I have produced over the past 12 weeks which includes


  • Logo identity design for vintage boutique The Gathering Goddess, to promote their in-house restoration & alteration services
  • Logo icon for their 5 step DALIR process
  • Fashion banners for their website & social media pages
  • Email html template

Dancers

I have been working on a short series of dancers (3) looking at the form of fabric when moving. This is an abstract approach, the fabric is the main point of attraction and is therefore the brightest element on the design. I took away the facial features of the dancers in order to focus the attention on the form and shapes of the fabric. I particularly liked working with the transparencies, which proved to be the most challenging.

The Unremarkable book

The Unremarkable book and other stories, is a collection of short stories written by Chris Green. It will be released as a Ebook for people to enjoy and read. The cover was designed to be fairly unremarkable, but intriguing enough to catch your eye on an old bookshelf. To read more about this book and to see more of Chris’s work click here.

Daleys Coffee Shop

Daleys is a restaurant and coffee shop in the heart of Bury st Edmunds. It is a traditional restaurant with a wide ranging menu of delicious homemade dishes. However it is now looking fairly left behind compared to the rest of Bury st Edmunds. 
With the new development The Arc shopping center and its many new trendy and modern cafe and shops, there is more competition than ever but also the potential to attract lots of customers to its doors. I decided to produce a new concept to refresh the brands image and make it a top choice to stop for a drink or bite to eat.
