I'm starting a book to keep stories in. Not a One note, Word Doc or Notion page - a physical book. Why? I want to unplug from tech a bit more and what better way to do that than keeping a book of stories?

Received these two flyers through the door before Christmas. Same design, same offer, but for different shops. A reminder that DIY design templates can save time, but they rarely help you stand out. Unique branding = better results! #GraphicDesign #BrandingTips

A very British Christmas gift I made for my girlfriends mum last year - Tea cards. How do you keep track of how everyone likes thier tea?
Tea cards.
One sugar or two?
Tea cards.
You get the idea...

My first #illustrator script kinda works. hex and pantone values aren't generated because of the colour space I'm in - any suggestions?

So chat GPT can write scripts for you to use in photoshop and illustrator. How did I not release this before?! I guess that's my weekend sorted 🤖🧑‍💻

Boxes don't have to be boring! 📦

I created this packaging for a whisky subscription club and it's packed with tons of information and rich history about whisky. 🥃

Packaging is an extension of your brand and often the first touch point for customers, so why settle for a boring generic box? 🤔

This week I’m showcasing some work you’ve probably seen before on Instagram & LinkedIn - Envirograph. It began as an outlet for my graphic design skills combined with my passion for the environment. 🏞️

I’m currently cooking up more with Envirograph and I’m excited to see where this project goes. 🙌

I like what you are doing with number one, visual hierarchy needs balancing out though.

I prefer concept 2 - it would be more adaptable if you simplified it a little, I've done a quick sketch to show you what I mean. I prefer the "A" in your concept, mine looks weaker.

Best of luck! 😊👌

Isn't it funny that the best work we creatives do is the work we set ourselves? The work we actually enjoy? The work that doesn't pay the bills?

Sometimes it's just nice to make stuff just for yourself.

A #logo I created for a personal trainer a few years ago.

I love making #infographic posters like these. This one was for a charity cycle my older brother took part in. Want to know how I did this? Comment below 👇
