    &More

    &More is a brand identity for a Graphic Design Degree Show at Manchester Metropolitan. The brands core values was to represent everyone partaking in the degree show and to allow everyone understand each students practice within design. Not only did it help friends and families understand the students, but it allowed for people in the industry, seeking for creatives, to have a deeper understanding of the practice of each student.

    This was a collabortive project where my role focused on designing spacial graphics and motion graphics.

    Park Run

    The Park Run project is an energetic brand identity system designed to drive community engagement and encourage participation across all fitness levels. Using a bold colour palette, custom typographic hierarchy, motivational apparel, and dynamic motion graphics for social media, the design balances high-energy athletic aesthetics with an inclusive, approachable community feel.

    Cha Kombucha

    Cha Kombucha is a bold branding and packaging project designed to introduce insect-based kombucha to a mainstream market. To overcome consumer hesitancy (the “yuck factor”), I created approachable vector illustrations, custom typography, and interactive shelf packaging designed to build curiosity and engagement.
