FWD magazine

Website is still causing havoc. I did have it up at one point for about an hour but sadly not anymore. Here's something else instead. This was a magazine collaboration that I did with Kerry Gissing, Kelly Hillier, Fran Mawson and Laurel Howells. Primarily a sustainable fashion magazine with a large format and a lot of white space to give a contemplative feel.

Edition

As I have yet to get my proper website up and running (it's done and ready - it just needs to be put online and my techno savvy has once failed me! Web skills are not the best) but should be within the week. So expect a link and a post soon.

Getting round to the business at hand, this is the culmination of my final major project which was a company that I created that follows the line of LoveFilm but with books. Imagine a library that would let you borrow any book you wanted and would send it to your house for a small fee. Well that's the concept for the business really. But I created the advertising to launch the company as well as business stationary and a basic website. Here it is then. Have a peek.

Business as usual

These are my lovely new business cards, my first venture at advertising myself. Here's hoping.

Show Ten

My degree show is on in June from the 7th to the 18th and one of the show committee got us on Dirtymouse as we have a lovely website to advertise us but here's a quick link to me :

Orion books covers

For my D&AD submission I choose the HG Wells covers brief. They had to be non-classical but had to match as a set.  I don't think I'm in with much of a chance but you never know if you don't enter right? I choose four of the five titles to design and I even read two of the four books (Tono-Bungay is probably the best) so I'm not quite Chip Kidd but reading does help to 'see' how the cover should look and I'm a big fan of reading.

Halina Anastigmat

My friend took me to an antique shop yesterday and this is what happened. She wanted it too but insisted I have it though she hated me the whole way home for it. Bought it for £8 which was pretty reasonable according to the internet plus I got a lovely case with it. Now I just hope it works! Have got some film so will test and then post the results. Here's hoping. 

Flatterland unconventional book

Again, another long gap! But here it is the second installment, though it was already done when I last posted. Anyway, yesterday I handed in ALL my work, every single thing I have done this year. Suitcases were involved. Pretty sure it weighed more than me.

To cut a long story short, this is the second part of the project that I last posted. A book in an unconventional format that could be read as a book or be seen as a poster that merely folds down. My piece only includes chapter 14 so the whole book would be rather thicker but the same bellyband would still hold it together. Enjoy, hopefully.
