I am a Graphic Designer from the UK specialised in layout design and creative direction for books and magazines, with a focus on thoughtful design and attention to detail. I have particular experience working with independent and lifestyle publications, and also apply my skills to content creation, creative direction, and brand and identity design.
I approach each project with care, taking the time to get to know my clients and their businesses. Through a meticulous, crafted approach, I can create cohesive and refined outcomes with every detail considered that effectively and beautifully communicate the client's message.
I have experience working with new and established brands and publications and work on both print and digital platforms, including web design and social media content curation and creation.
Please get in touch if you would like to work together.

From there it developed into a lifestyle brand and expanded into wellbeing events, event catering, and design and photography services for other small business
- Wabi-SabiBook design | Typesetting | Book-binding | Print-making Design concept for Leonard Koren’s 'Wabi-Sabi: For Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers'. Inspired by the nature of wabi-sabi, the book is designed to wear and develop signs of use over time. Each page is screen-printed on a different paper stock, then bound by hand and wrapped in a hand-cut natural cotton cover, which is closed with a fine linen thread. All text credited to Leonard Koren.
