Posters, books and the things around them.

Fourteen years of print and identity work for theatres, presses and small makers. Move across the page to look through it.

Six pieces. Turn them over.

Posters, a quarterly, five jars, a mark, twelve covers and a window.

Eleven posters for a season of plays
One grid, one typeface and a colour for each play, so the season reads as a set on a wall and each poster stands alone.

The redesign of a quarterly on craft
A new grid, two typefaces and a rule: the photographs decide the page. The magazine lost its sidebars and gained its readers.

Packaging for a skincare line of five
Five jars that read as a family on a shelf and as one object in the hand. Paper labels, two inks, no plastic sleeve.

An identity for a ceramics studio
A wordmark drawn with the same brush the studio glazes with, and a system that lives on kraft tags and a kiln-side chalkboard.
Open the piece
Twelve covers for a small press
A series that looks like a series: one type size, one position, a colour per author. Readers collect them by the spine.

A paper installation for a shop window
Four hundred folded sheets in the colours of the autumn collection, lit from below. Built in the shop, over a weekend.
