Projects

• 5/95/9 - Shindig - The 5/9 event was held to celebrate 5 years at studio 9 for design agency Revolver Revolver. The idea was to invite some big wigs and try to get their business. We created a numeral typefaceto use on the promotional material and invites, then screen printed some tote bags, filled them with goodies and sent them to said big wigs. After some beer and good times we had captured clients such as Derby County Football Club and The University of Derby.
• ART OF CYCLING / BARBERSHOPArt of Cycling / Barbershop - Poster & icons (WIP) - Art of Cycling is a bike shop with an in-house Barber. Simple icon illustrations are of bike parts and Barbershop tools, to reflect the organised chaos of a bike repair shop meeting a barbershop.
