About me
Currently studying my third year in Graphic Design: Visual Communication BA Hons at University for the Creative Arts at UCA Canterbury. My main interests are typography, illustration, editorial design and graffiti art.
Projects
  • How Not to be the Same, Old, Boring, Washed Up Street Artist.
    How Not to be the Same, Old, Boring, Washed Up Street Artist.Street Art, the mythical subculture that consumerist companies have tried to replicate for decades, but thankfully failed. It’s something that surrounds us everywhere in essence but at the same time is one of the most secretive societies/cultures that exists. So naturally it’s hard to really find it let alone immerse yourself within it. This was my final minor project at university, I wanted to create a how to guide to graffiti that the reader can learn from and interact with. Grid pages are provided so the reader can create their own graffiti/response. The idea was that each book would eventually become very personal and diverse in comparison to the others.
  • Ref.U.Gee Campaign - University Project
    Ref.U.Gee Campaign - University ProjectAs I’m sure many other people are, I myself was completely ignorant and oblivious to what was happening in Syria, and the overall refugee Crsis. Only after conducting my own research into the subject did I finally become aware of the gravity of the situation, and how out of control Syria had become. So it got me thinking, if I was this uninformed about the whole sitaution then it’s guranteed a huge number of other people were in the same boat. But unlike me I’m sure the majority of these people wouldn’t dig deeper to become aware unless it was shown to them. So thats what this campaign does, using the same idea as a dictionary, I’m showing people the ‘true’ definitions of this subject matter and presenting them the facts on a plate. The overall design of the campaign is simplistic because it’s getting across the urgent message that matters, not making something aesthetically pleasing.
  • Sheerness Dockyard Church Brand Guidelines
    Sheerness Dockyard Church Brand GuidelinesDuring my second year of university we were given the chance to take part in a live brief for our project. This brief was from the Sheerness Dockyard Preservation Trust, they are in the process of restoring the church on the Sheerness Dockyard and re-purposing and re-branding it. They wanted a Bid Report cover and Brand Guidelines for their new re-brand, so this was my response.
