This document contains summaries of various design projects including:
1) Design of a brochure for the Academy of St Martin in the Fields featuring illustrations incorporating photos of soloists.
2) Design of a website called "Lovely as a Tree" providing tools to help designers find environmentally friendly printing and paper options.
3) Redesign of the logo, branding, and website for a choral group called Gabrieli to have a more elegant, classic yet modern look.
4) Design of brochures for charities including the Personal Support Unit and Cardboard Citizens.
2. Academy of St Martin
in the Fields brochure
Brochure listing all the Academy’s London concerts and world
tour dates for 2014-15.
The brief was to make the brochure feel like a photo album or scrap
book of the Creative Director’s friends and collaborators
We commissioned illustrator, Sarah Maycock, to make collages
incorporating photos of the soloists, to represent each concert.

12. Gabrieli logo and website
re-design case study
Gabrieli are a choral and orchestral group, performing works from
the renaissance to the present day. They also run a group called
Gabrieli Roar for singers and musicians aged 10+.
Gabrieli’s logo and website were
looking tired and did not reflect their
majestic and superbly crafted music,
so we were commissioned to give
their logo, overall brand and website
a refresh.
Initially, Gabrieli were very keen
to keep their logo, but after some
discussion and experimentation,
we all agreed that the logo would
need updating in order to achieve the
elegant ‘classic yet modern’ look and
feel that they needed.
16. Old logo and website
Gabrieli formed in Venice and this is
the lion that sits in St Mark’s Square.
However, most people don’t know this,
so the symbolism is lost.
However, the lion is a symbol of power
and majesty and threfore, a good
representation of Gabrieli. It was
agreed that we would keep the lion
in some form.
Lion ‘borrowed’ from Wikipedia, so the
image didn’t belong to Gabrieli. Also,
it lacks clarity and does not reproduce
well, especially at small sizes.
Typeface - not bespoke and the letter
spacing is uneven. Could feel more
modern and beautifully crafted.
We also wanted to look at the relationship
between the word mark and the lion, to
see if this could be more comfortable.
19. The Personal
Support Unit
‘who we are’
brochure
The PSU is a charity that helps people facing court
without legal representation. There has been a big
increase in the need for their services since legal aid
was cut in 2013/14.
The PSU demistyfies the legal process and gives
people the confidence to face court alone.
We used a very simple signpost style to make the
overall look as clear as possible. The brochure is
clean and friendly, reflecting PSU values.
The PSU currently has a brand look, including
colours, which I have worked with and updated for
the brochure and annual report.

21. Cardboard Citizens
A ‘who we are’ brochure for the Cardboard citizens,
a theatre charity working with homeless people.
22. Camberwell
Arts Festival
2015
We created the promotional campaign for
the 2015 Camberwell Arts Festival on the
theme of ‘Feast on Art’.
Items included were a brochure, advert,
newspaper advertorial insert, posters,
banners, social media banners and badges.
We based the campaign on traditional
menu designs and cafe graphics to
highlight the theme of ‘feast’ and the
various events within the festival in a fun
and accessible way.
Jordana Leighton of Camberwell Arts
says: ‘Feedback from the general public
has been fantastic: our branding really
brought the theme of “feast” to life and
was accessible to the whole community,
was easy to understand and most
importantly was memorable.
‘The flyers and posters really stood out
in what is a very cluttered space of local
festivals and events, and the artwork
replicated beautifully across all mediums
from large scale street banners to social
media banners and pin badges.
‘I am incredibly proud of what the 2015
festival achieved, and it is as much down
to the success of the visual identity as the
events themselves.’

24. Boots Original
Beauty Formulas
Development of a new brand. The Boots Original
Beauty Formula products were based on original
19th and 20th century recipes so we designed the
packaging to reflect this. We also redesigned the
Boots logo for this range, based on an early 20th
century logo. For Camilla Lilliesko¨ld Design.
