Projects
  • Short Bark & Sidez
    Short Bark & SidezShort Bark & Sidez is a brand new dog grooming service that operates within the North Lanarkshire area. Since this was a new business venture, the client was looking for a fun, contemporary - but most importantly - professional branding, that would help them stand out from the crowd in a somewhat competitive field.
  • The Ultimate Trip
    The Ultimate TripISTD Award: Pass On 2nd April 1968, at the Uptown Theater, ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ premiered for the first time. Many years on, 2001 is widely regarded as one of the finest cinematic achievements of the 20th century and “one of the greatest and most influential films ever made.” The Ultimate Trip was designed back in 2018 to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of Stanley Kubrick’s masterpiece
  • Stop Design Labour!
    Stop Design Labour!Within the creative industry, unpaid internships have become the standard with many expecting students and recent graduates to take no pay. These internships are unethical and exploitive of young designers. ‘Stop Design Labour!’ is a social initiative with the hope of abolishing these non-paid positions and help empower a new generation of designers, whilst championing those studios who pay their interns.
  • LP Me
    LP MeWith the resurgence of the sale of vinyl in recent times, records are now in very high demand and retail consumers such as Tesco have jumped on the bandwagon, merely for profit. This project aims to help local retailers - who survived the death of vinyl - by promoting them and their stores for collectors whilst also trying to recreate that sense of community within the music industry. To get people talking about music again and to buy music properly.
  • Loch An Eilein Brewers

The purpose of the craft beer is to help preserve the Caledonian Forest which surrounds Loch an Eilein. Teaming up with The Scottish Wildlife Trust so for every beer purchased, the brewery will try and rescue the biodiversity within the Caledonian Forests by giving a home to an endangered species to help save them or by planting a tree within the area.
