A live brief set by International Society of Typographic Design asking for students to produce an outcome that demonstrated an eyewitness account of a significant event in time.
In response to this brief, I decided to produce a book that celebrated the significance of graphic designer Ken Garland. I collected a range of words and quotes from ex-colleagues, which allowed the book to take on an eyewitness account of what it was like to work in the studio with such a character.
In the publication, I chose to channel a modern approach that considered Ken Garlands style. I demonstrated this through the use of bright colours and brave imagery.

Self Promotion
For my self promotion I wanted to project a modern aesthetic that considered Black as the primary theme throughout. My business cards use a spot gloss finish that was achieved through print company MOO.
My design in the promotional material is intended to reflect my ethos of slick, clean and bold. If interested in receiving any of the design showed in these photographs I am happy to send out a complimentary package.
I recently have been working on building a brand identity for the new 3D printing company 'Raplas'. The brand came to me with a basic idea of what how they would like to be presented to the 3D printing industry. Considering themes such as; innovation, energy, competence, maturity and trust.
I have produced a range of work included logo concepts, letterheads, icon design and Typography for the brand. This is an ongoing project which is close to being signed off before moving on to a full brochure design. Below demonstrates some examples of where I have built the identity to so far.
