Projects
- DIY DOC'SDr. Martens is strongly associated with self-expression and individuality. People from every background and culture embrace and customise their Dr. Martens to suit their personal style and fashion taste. The companies blog already makes a celebration of this, sharing a mixture of music, style and art with their readers. ‘DIY DOC’S’ is a subsection of the blog, showcasing some of the best examples of artists and illustrators customised shoes.
- IKEA RADIÖSocial media addiction is a growing problem in our society. Each day, 15-20 year olds spend 3 hours or more on social media and at this age, we are the most susceptible to its negative effects. A new range of ideas were developed to coincide with IKEA’s vision of creating a better everyday for the many people, whilst also repositioning the brand to target a new issue. RADIÖ is a device that aids social bonding and encourages face to face interaction through the sharing of live music.
