Creative Block

It was once a popular belief that ‘genius’ was an entity that would help you be creative when you lacked inspiration. Sometimes when you are stuck for an idea, a little ‘genius’ help could come in handy.

Creative Block is a tool to help you find inspiration; a block of dough to mould in your hands as you mull over an idea. Each block is embossed with the word “creative” and is housed within a playful, illustrative packaging solution.

I Count Therefore I Am

Interactive poster highlighting ‘the significance of numbers’. Posters were exhibited with a pencil attached, which allowed viewers to compleat the dot - to - do and reveal the message, inspired by the famous words of René Descartes.

Freedom

Limited edition two colour screen print, produced in collaboration with charity Love 146. A symbolic representation of the search for freedom through the medium of a maze.

Self Portrait

A simple illustration designed as promotional material for 2011 D&AD New Blood show.

Penguin

Limited edition screen print, released for auction to raise funds for the 2010 FdA Visual Communication End of year show.

Make A Meal Of It

A recipe book that tackles food related health issues, by providing quick, easy and affordable recipes as an alternative to buying processed or pre-prepared foods. The book utilizes a unique graphic system enabling users to navigate through recipes from a distance and at ease.

A gatefold function creates useful bookmarks, which allow the user to maintain position in a recipe once the book has been closed.

Recipes are designed to increase productivity by organising the users time in the kitchen into two parts: preparation & cooking.

Grow Your Own Future

An educational campaign, which raises awareness of the employment crisis within the British agricultural industry. “It is crucial that steps are taken to persuade younger people to take up a career in agriculture or else the industry will collapse.” - LANTRA. The booklet consists of a seed card and informative poster, allowing students to interact with their subject matter and experience the sensation of growing plants.

Hand screenprinted, all materials are 100% recycled and sustainability sourced.
