Commissioned for a spring wedding in Marylebone, London, this project involved creating a suite of refined, hand-drawn watercolour floral designs. Inspired by seasonal blooms, the illustrations combine soft pastel tones and organic detailing to convey an elegant, timeless aesthetic. Each piece was meticulously painted by hand and digitally refined to ensure consistency across both printed invitations mailed to guests and digital versions distributed online illustrator graphicdesigner
For this project, I was commissioned to create a bespoke 30th birthday invitation for a client hosting a large celebration in a New York style loft. The brief called for two distinct design directions to reflect different moods for the event: one option featuring a soft, muted colour palette with elegant and refined detailing, and a second version that embraced a bold, vibrant aesthetic full of energy and personality. Both designs captured the urban sophistication of the loft setting while highlighting the milestone occasion with a modern, celebratory feel. graphicdesigner designer invitation
Developing a new print pack for WoolOvers to inject a burst of colour and freshness into the High Summer SS21 collection. Designed to feel casual and versatile, the pack aimed to bring a softer, more feminine energy without appearing overly polished or smart. Each design was created to be shot separately to emphasize a strong sense of newness, even while incorporating tile colours from the April range. The collection featured three coordinating artworks, all designed in repeat and prepared for rotary/screen printing in 3-4 colours. Print direction drew inspiration from ornate, fresh paisleys and refined tile motifs- echoing the timeless, bohemian elegance of brands like Etro while maintaining a relaxed, summery aesthetic. graphicdesigner illustrator
