About me
I love to create publications and especially enjoy utilising technical processes (such as embossing, foiling and die cutting) as well as interesting paper stocks to help aid a design. When designing, I am meticulous and take everything into consideration; some designs even stem from the type of paper I want to use. I also have a real interest in typography and having designed my own typeface, enjoy experimenting with how text is used as, or alongside images. By using bold colours, shapes and a minimal approach, I am able to create engaging layout designs and logos. My designs and methods of working are transferable and aside from publications, have also been used on ceramics and fabrics.
