Projects
  • Places #1
    Places #1A side project in my spare time is capturing places or exhibitions visited and working on new identities. A visit to Birmingham Botanical Gardens inspired me into how I could utilise the photography taken with a modernist approach to design, producing a collection of posters.
  • The Big Peg - Brand Identity
    The Big Peg - Brand IdentityHome to many a creative business, The Big Peg imposing over Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter needed a fresh identity. Working from shots taken by local photographers, Handover as part of a marketing over-hall, I developed a range of logos for use across corporate and digital marketing. Bold lines were taken from the architecture of the building with the colour palette in keeping with the original aesthetic.
  • TEK.studio - Brand Identity
    TEK.studio - Brand IdentityIntegrating the positive and friendly approach to working with clients, TEK. needed an inviting and fresh brand identity. Going ahead with the idea of interchanging the colour scheme every season and referring back to the studio's Norwegian routes, this in turn reflected in the final branding - utilising Norwegian words and phrases like 'Hei' from the business cards to web design.
