hand drawn type



final design for the geometric type. moved away from computer generated because it looked shit. stuck to what i know best, drawing. 


google

really enjoying todays google header, an interactive game celebrating the 60th anniversary of Stanistaw Lem's first book publication. very cool.

work space


commandeered a corner in my flat for my new workspace. excited to finally have a printer, come on productiveness

it turns out margot is a boy called mungo. i feel cheated.

3d type

i've been prototyping a 3d geometric type. i want to do it in either fluorescent or pastel colours, this was just the coloured card i had to hand. there's a couple of the same letters, just trying to work out what works best.

the wall project

i lovingly share a room with my best friend sofie and we've decided to have a little wall off. we each have a blank wall of our room to do with what we will. she has pushed on forward with her first installation, watch this space for my contribution to the walls of our boudoir.

homograph illustrations. bear bear. bat bat. hide hide... planning on doing an A0 illustration in pen combining different homographs in this sort of style

margot


it turns out my new kitten margot likes my work, and likes annoying me.  this week has resulted in far more kitten pictures than work

jane eyre cover



re-mastered version of the jane eyre cover, still only a prototype, more changes to be made.

kitsch house




with the kitsch objects i found i'm gonna make some sort of surreal 3d scene with them.. was looking at making things out of paper building up around those objects. so here i used the lion doorknob..

collaborative elective.

Penguin set us a brief to create a cover for Jane Eyre to bring it to a modern audience. Our thinking behind this initial mock up was looking at the themes of fire and ice in the book. We then plan on putting it in a big silver box. Just initial ideas, but see what you think.
