I am a London based graphic designer with 6 years experience across a broad variety of sector types and agencies and feel I have a very well rounded and matured design sensibility and aesthetic value.
I am able to generate exciting concepts and carry these through from inception to completion and to a high standard of finish.
I am able to work very effectively on my own and time manage my workflow, as well as being able to contribute and develop group projects and explorations.
Projects
- Bespoke suit appI designed the whole look and feel as well as the UX and UI for an iPad app that would allow staff members to walk customers through the process of creating their own bespoke suit from a wide selection of customisable options. The interface for live selections and updates would behave in a similar way to the ‘like / pin / send’ function on Pinterest’s mobile app.
- 6º of SeparationI was asked to create a visual typographic journey. I chose the theory of 6º of separation as an ideal vehicle to explore multiple, progressive themes, and treat each with a highly considered and series-based visual style, while ensuring all typographic detailing adhered to strict rules and guidelines.
