Tetstill Mill post-flood clean-up video, March 2024
Tetstill Mill is home to a small hydroelectric generator adjacent to a weir on the River Neen in Shropshire. The generator stopped working in October 2023 when it was damaged during a major flood that spread silt and debris across the site.
My brief was to give a flavour of the clear-up operation conducted by three workers from Sharenergy, a renewable energy consultancy that works with a network of community energy co-ops.
The video formed part of a publicity exercise to encourage new recruits to join the boards of existing energy co-ops, and especially to infom the local co-op’s board members about the work required to repair the Tetstill Mill generator, which has been a hydropower site since at least the Doomsday Book.
My brief was to simply show the initial work in progress, accompanied by some commentary from Sharenergy’s CEO, Jon Hallé.
The video was shot using my Canon Legria HF G60, and I edited the footage and output video using Adobe Premiere Pro.
You can read a short update on the Sharenergy website and stream the video at https://www.twine.net/signin

Osira Network pitchdeck design
I am co-founder of a project that seeks to develop and launch the Osira Network, an online governance platform and cryptographic token designed for the $3.7trn climate and sustainable finance markets.
Working with my fellow co-founder and other team members, we designed the Osira model to incorporate blockchain, Web3, DeFi and AI technology to open up these markets to the widest possible global audience; bring funders, recipients and experts together under one roof to collaborate and innovate; and thus add to the momentum for global climate action.
As the Osira team's design lead, I created the brand, including logos, fonts and corporate colours, and I design all the Osira brochures, information leaflets and other materials.
The pitchdeck is image heavy and is intended to be the centrepiece of a presentation on the climate finance market, its constraints and our plans to open access to a much wider global audience. I used Adobe InDesign to create and lay out the pages and used Creative Commons licenses and stock image libraries to source the images.
We also produced an Arabic language version as the project has attracted considerable interest from the UAE.

The Green Plaque branding
The Green Plaque is an environmental assessment for housing developments, retrofit projects and offices. Clients are typically householders, property developers and businesses and they receive a plaque where they have taken measures that reduce their impact.
I developed this business in collaboration with Andrew Pook, an experienced Building Research Establishment impact assessor, and I manage three of the project’s communications elements:
* Branding: I designed the Green Plaque’s master and category logos, the latter of which appears on the slate plaque mounted on-site. These include a QR code that links to a PDF brochure that details the project’s environmental features. House-builders and developers often use the Green Plaque as a marketing tool.
* Report brochures: I edit the technical assessment reports on which the awards are based, transforming them from the dry documents that architects and planning professionals into a brochure that presents the solutions in an accessible style for a mainstream audience. Where necessary, I’ll visit the site to take photographs to illustrate the points in the report.
* Press publicity: Where commisisoned – usually by developers or house-builders – I write a press release which, on the client’s approval, is sent to relevant local and national news and media. This occasionally includes radio or TV interviews. #graphicdesigner #logo #photo #branding…The Green Plaque is an environmental assessment for housing developments, retrofit projects and offices.

COP26 video: Glasgow, November 2021
I filmed and interviewed marchers engaged in a major protest through Glasgow city centre to canvass their opinions of the UN climate change summit, COP26, taking place at the nearby Glasgow Conference Centre.
The commission, from Crawley Borough Council, was to create a five-minute film that captured the atmosphere of the rain-drenched main march, which attracted an estimated 100,000 people. The client was especially keen to obtain comments from marchers and others in support of effective local authority action on the climate agenda.
Having obtained around six hours of footage, including interviews, the video was edited at great speed to meet the client’s deadline. The council wanted to screen the film at a full public meeting, which was due to discuss Crawley’s policy agenda following its declaration of a climate emergeny two years earlier.
A key element of my brief was to show what participating in a climate protest is like, including the music, passion and chaos that such a large gathering entails. Another of the film's important functions was to show older councillors how younger generations are positively engaged with climate issues.

Green Plaque branding
The Osira Network is an online governance platform and cryptographic token that aims to deploy blockchain, Web3, DeFi and AI to transform the $3.7tn global climate and sustainable finance markets. A project co-founder, I am part of a team that intends to implement and launch the platform within a year, which could easily be a watershed for the climate finance market and the deployment of blockchain technology.
In terms of branding and publicity materials, one of our primary aims is to project the central importance of security, reliability, transparency and accountability to the platform's functioning. In this way, we aimed to differentiate Osira from other crypto operations which collapsed amid claims of poor management and business standards. While we believe blockchain technology is robust, this must be matched by high standards of governance as well.
Consequently, Osira's branding is designed to project clarity and reliability through its use of colour and text. This includes the Osira O, which includes two horizontal lines through the O in an echo of the Bitcoin logo, which incorporates two vertical lines through the B. The O is ultimately designed to become an easily-recognisable logo that embodies Osira's narrative when used on its own.
The logo was created in Adobe Illustrator and comes in white-on-navy and reversed versions. White and navy are two of the four colours on Osira's corporate colour wheel, and these are used on the project's information leaflets and posters. #graphicdesigner #illustrator #branding #logo…The Osira Network is an online governance platform and cryptographic token that aims to deploy blockchain, Web3, DeFi and AI to transform the $3.7tn global climate and sustainable finance markets.

Lifecycle Design branding, brochure design and WordPress website
Lifecycle Design is a sustainable development consultancy specialising in design and planning standards.
As the public-facing arm of the Callao Housing Consultancy, it offers expert advice to clients seeking to future-proof their residential and commercial developments. Its focus is on intelligent design, construction and usage strategies that enhance sustainability and resilience.
Its services extend to guiding clients – primarily house-builders and developers – through local authority sustainability requirements and navigating the planning process.
It aims to ensure projects not only meet regulatory standards but also align with best practices in sustainable development.
I was commissioned to create a brand identity centered around recycling and the lifecycle of construction materials, and I have applied this ethos to a series of brochures and WordPress website.
And my involvement extends beyond this project; Lifecycle Design is a leading sponsor of the Green Plaque environmental assessment award, for which I also developed the branding.
As part of our ongoing commitment to innovation and improvement, I am now revisiting my original Lifecycle Design branding, which is now approximately eight years old.
My goal is to update the look and feel of the brand and replace the existing font family, starting with the revamp of the company website at lifecycledesign.co.uk. #graphicdesigner…Lifecycle Design is a sustainable development consultancy specialising in design and planning standards.

Osira Network whitepaper design
I am a co-founder of the Osira Network, a governance platform and token designed to transform the $3.7trn global climate and sustainable finance markets.
Deploying blockchain, Web3, DeFi and AI technology, the platform is designed to bring funders, recipients and experts together under one 'roof', so they can collaborate, innovate and drive global action on climate mitigation and adaption.
This whitepaper is a detailed description of the Osira Network and its mission to address the challenges of underfunding and short-termism in the climate finance sector.
Written for potential investors and developer partners, the whitepaper is a detailed technical guide to the project, covering everything from its overall purpose and business model, to the platform's weighted voting systems and governance structure.
As project co-founder, I developed the branding, designed the document and produced around 75% of the content, in association with the technical lead and business partner.
