Qboid
The Brief: To create a striking identity and packaging that reflected the puzzle's design and would stand out on a shelf.
The Solution: The modernist inspired design uses the same strong colours as the puzzle itself and picks up on the concept with the use of small underscores. The cover set at an angle implies interactivity and evokes the sense of playing with the blocks.
Lee Edwards
The Brief: Artist Lee Edwards wanted a simple website to display his works with an elegant design that wouldn't detract from the pieces themselves.
The Solution: A white background, simple typography and lots of space was utilised to ensure visitors would concentrate on the images themselves. Simply produced the site is also easy to maintain.
The Bishops - Website 2
The Brief: To create a new website with a fresh look to aid the launch of the Bishops second album and complement the great design of their new single 'City Lights' by Neill Kidgell of Oxox.
The Solution: Using their fantastic photographs as a backdrop the new design is simple but presents a strong serious image.
BluesMix - Biding My Time Artwork
The Brief: To create the artwork for the new BluesMix album 'Biding My Time'.
The Solution: A series of relaxed photos were shot using long exposures to convey the sense of time passing.
Jane Robinson - Stationery
The Brief: To create a set of stationery including a brochure for accessories designer Jane Robinson, in keeping with the style of her new website and reflective of her colourful range of products.
The Solution: A flexible brochure consisting of a folder and easily changeable card inserts with a tactile floral pattern the cover printed in spot varnish reflecting the patterns and textures of her products. Business cards and other stationery using the same delicate pattern and spot varnish to match.
Vincent Vincent and the Villains - Website 2
The Brief: To design and build a website that convey's the bands myriad of influences and sense of fun.
The Solution: The second website I created for the Villains features a shoe box set and dolls of the band made by Vincent Vincent. My challenge was to turn this into a functional interface. The result is a site that is idiosyncratic and playful yet very easy to use.
Jane Robinson - Website
The Brief: To design and build a simple website that reflects the aesthetic of Jane's designs and illustrates her various ranges.
The Solution: The design features coloured and patterned backgrounds highlighting the strong visual qualities of the cushions with simple yet functional product pages focused on images of the designs and fabric options.
Hainsley Brown
The brief: To create an online portfolio for the photographer Hainsley Brown, which would show the variety of his work and let the quality speak for itself.
The Solution: Innovative map-like navigation was used to display the portfolio as a single body of work whilst allowing for each page to be individually designed according to the images.
BluesMix
The Brief: To create a new identity for the band BluesMix highlighting the band's quality musicianship and diversity of style.
The Solution: A clean modern design which subtly references the style of Bluetone records was employed to position the musicians style and quality. The identity is used throughout from the website to flyers.
Sam Beer
The Brief: To create a website to present Sam Beer as a contemporary singer-songwriter combining great poetry and musicianship.
The Solution: Photographs of Sam's belongings and handwriting were collaged together to create a very personal and tactile site. The mini MP3 player also allows you to listen to his music whilst browsing the site.
The Bishops - Website 1
The Brief: To create a simple website that reflects the band's style and is easy to update.
The Solution: The design is based on the bands homemade flyers and is built in html with scrolling text fields that are quick and easy to update.
Vincent Vincent and the Villains - Website 1
The Brief: To design and build a website that convey's the bands myriad of influences and sense of fun.
The Solution: A highly unusual homepage was designed whereby users turn band members into colour by rolling their mouse over them, they can then be click to go to different parts of the site.
Kezia Cantwell-Wright - Website 1
Info: The first website I designed and built to showcase my art practice, little did I know at the time it would be the first of many more websites to come.
