Hi! I’m Rowan, a multi-disciplinary designer originally from the south of Ireland, now living in London where I’ve worked as a creative for the last four years.
Since 2022, I have been the lead designer for London-based luxury tea brand JING Tea, working on trade projects from collaborations to events with prominent hotel partners, E-Commerce projects and seasonal campaigns. Throughout my career to date, I’ve honed skills in graphic design, branding and illustration as well as production, leading on the direction and production of our Christmas campaign.
As a designer, I am adaptive and eager to learn. I love collaborating on projects and working within a team, but also happy to work independently as well, bringing energy and character to every project. My main strength technically would be my attention for detail, I love refining work and making sure everything fits together seamlessly.
I hope you enjoy looking at my work!

- Dreamcatchr - An Opera by Lily AkermanFor this project, I was asked by RIAM to create a live poster and print deliverables, such as static poster, program booklet, etc, for their upcoming Opera, named 'Dreamcatchr.' In the script, the protagonist, Jane, undergoes a loss of sanity as she develops the coding for an app that can help you relive dreams, so there was naturally an inclination to use this counterplay between dreams and technology in the imagery I made for the project deliverables. I was interested in trying out stop-motion
