About
I’m a London-based graphic designer with over five years’ experience developing concept-led work across print, digital and the built environment. Working primarily within the cultural sector, I create bold, thoughtful design that connects ideas, people and places. I’m curious and detail-driven, with experience taking projects from initial concept through to final craft, both independently and collaboratively. I’m particularly interested in work that combines strong ideas with a clear sense of place and purpose.

Creative Folkestone Book Festival: The Shape of Things to Come took place from Friday 18 - Sunday 27 November 2022. I developed the identity for the Festival starting from June of the same year. Designed elements included a 26 page event programme, digital assets, wayfinding and stage design. The design system is based off of the core themes of the Festival; connecting people, balancing and contrasting opinions, and stretching the truth. The stretched type plays on these ideas and the animated shapes each represent one core value. 

I designed the print, wayfinding, marketing materials and social assets. To strenghten the identity, I worked closely with a motion and sound designer to inject energy into the Festival through movement and sound.
