The Five Alls pub

2011-10-19T05:10:00.000-07:00

Here are the logos I presented for this upscale pub in Oxfordshire. They decided to 'go their own way' with the rebrand, but I like the designs and think they had good potential.

Population Matters

2011-02-22T13:54:00.001-08:00

Optimum Population Trust's website populationmatters.org is now live. I designed this site and logo in October 2010. Here are images of some of the original site designs. Under the control of the client, it looks considerably different (read: 'they've mucked it up a bit')- but the framework is sound.

The Guinness Partnership

2011-02-14T04:48:00.000-08:00

Proposed designs for Guinness Partnership, illustrating our proposal for the homepage, the navigation dropdown and alternative banner treatment as well as a landing page. The client and agency decided to part ways in the middle of this project which was a great pity considering it was shaping up to be a lovely website.

Felt bag

2011-02-10T06:15:00.000-08:00

I made this felt bag for my niece, the purse has a button that it hooks onto inside the bag itself.

Pyjama monster

2011-02-10T06:12:00.001-08:00

Sometimes I like to make things. This is a pyjama monster I made for my nephew in New Zealand. He is made from recycled clothes that my boys had grown out of.

Pears Foundation

2011-02-08T04:49:00.000-08:00

Please visit the Pears Foundation website, to see the brand and website design I did with Public Life for this foundation.

Council on Bioethics

2010-05-23T15:23:00.001-07:00

This branch of the Nuffield Foundation which explores the ethical issues in biology and medicine, was designed as part of the whole Nuffield on-line presence that I worked on with Public Life. Please visit the website at www.nuffieldbioethics.org, the research and work they do is fascinating!

Nuffield Foundation- microsite design

2010-05-23T15:20:00.001-07:00

The Nuffield Foundation has hundreds of microsites which we brought under a unified template, thus keeping down costs, labour saving and creating a common language for all areas under the Nuffield Foundation umbrella.

Nuffield Foundation

2010-05-23T15:11:00.000-07:00

This is the website solution we came up with for the Nuffield Foundation. They focus on social issues and education, with an incredible amount of research going into those areas. There are have several subsidiaries, the largest of which is the Council on Bioethics.

Our aim was to design a website template that could be used for both the main foundation and it's largest branch, the Council on Bioethics. The resulting design has a similar structure to the navigation and footer areas, as well as using a uniform grid pattern but has been customised using the fonts and colours we introduced to extend the brands. Each site also has a very unique and recognisable hero area and image treatments which differentiate them.

Leukemia Research

2010-05-23T15:05:00.000-07:00

I designed this website while Leukaemia Research were in the midst of a rebranding exercise and many of the decisions we made were incorporated into the final rebrand for the entire organisation.

Coming up with a design that fitted in with their interum brand identity, while portraying the serious research aspect of what they do AND appealing to thier community based and fun events participants, wasn't easy!

Progressio

2010-05-23T14:57:00.000-07:00

The Progressio website has finally gone live, with it's refreshed brand approach, see it here.

Swishing

2010-01-25T12:49:00.000-08:00

My good friend Kim has just recently introduced me to 'swishing' which you will be pleased to know is not 'swinging'! However the concept is not far off- a group of women arrange to meet up, each bringing a nearly new item of clothing or accessories they no longer wear. The items are all accumulated and organised, and at a particular point there's a free-for-all. No kicking, biting or punching allowed... although I'm sure that could be organised if that were the preferred method.

Anyway, Kim and I put these posters together for the two most recent events she's started.

enjoy!

DFID moodle education module skin

2009-11-10T13:32:00.000-08:00

These are screens from a job I recently worked on with Public Life. The client was DFID (Department for International Development), they were using an education module called ‘moodle’ for staff training and needed it to tie in with their brand and existing website, while remaining a distinctively different environment. The resulting designs looked like these mock-ups.

SilverSmither jewellery design

2009-10-27T01:51:00.000-07:00

I have been working on this project since April this year, it's been a fun project to work on with terrific people. (not sure why it took so long, but I think it's partly because it became rather larger than anticipated, anyway it's live--- go visit it at www.silversmither.com.

Visuals

2009-03-26T04:20:00.000-07:00

This was a design I proposed for a pitch- it's not what we went into the pitch with, but still something I like.

Dish Catering

2009-03-14T15:06:00.001-07:00

I designed the identity for this funky catering company, it was one of my favorite jobs.

Green Gold Forestry

2009-03-14T14:44:00.000-07:00

Green Gold Forestry was an ethical investment company which specializes in timber and forestry all over the world. I did the identity and website for them.

Paul Hamlyn Foundation - Awards for artists microsite

2009-03-14T14:19:00.000-07:00

This microsite showcases the winners of the Awards for Artists' work and provides information about the program through the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. The artists' work needed to be centre stage. www.phf.org.uk/Artists

NCVO Strategy and Impact website

2009-03-14T14:03:00.000-07:00

This was my first job with Public Life, and while it was a simple reskin, I think it came out rather well. This version of the site is not live - the organisation was restructured and a new site design reflected this better.

British Film Magazine

2009-03-14T13:59:00.000-07:00

This was a site I designed for a film magazine. The editor, Terence, found it impossible to make enough money from the site and magazine to keep it up and running although it truly was passion of his. I was sad to see it taken down.

bassac

2009-03-14T13:41:00.000-07:00

This is another site I designed for Public Life - www.bassac.org.uk

Explosive Media

2009-03-14T13:21:00.000-07:00

From 2006 until mid 2008, I worked as art director of Explosive Media. I designed the logo, stationary and website- which you can visit at explosivemedia.com

Drinkaware website design

2009-03-14T12:56:00.000-07:00

Working with Public Life www.publiclife.co.uk, I did a good deal of the design work on this website, which was launched late 2008. It has been well received by it's target audience. Shortly after this version went live, drinkaware completed a rebrand and the site was reskinned, however quite a few of the elements I designed are still on the site. www.drinkaware.co.uk
