Hello! I’m Evie, a Nottingham-based Design Graduate from Sheffield Hallam University. I am a keen learner and during my 5 years at University I studied Interior Design, Illustration and Graphic Design, as I could never be tied down to one discipline! I enjoy a range of creative activities, from video editing to writing to drawing, and have always been about the process and journey rather than the final destination. Curiosity always gets the better of me, and any opportunity to gain new skills and experiences turns my head. As such I would describe myself as a ‘Multidisciplinary Designer’ rather than a ‘Graphic Designer’, as it makes all the above much easier to explain!My work tends to be a juxtaposition between light-hearted whimsy and organised, analytical method, as I am myself both light-hearted and organised. I like to create wholesome work that puts a smile on someone’s face.

- The Street Signs CollectionAfter many walks around my local area in Carlton, Nottingham during the Covid-19 pandemic, I became engrossed in everything about street signs — the look of them, the placement of them, age, origin, meaning, utility and so on. I wanted to understand them better, so I began to take photographs. At first I favoured the oldest looking signs, as history has always been an interest of mine, as has old fashioned architecture, and these older signs, with inward, bevelled corners and a bold sans-serif
