Award: Commendation Brief:
To create promotional material that raises awareness of Youth
Music, a UK-based music charity for children and young people,
and to encourage the music-making opportunities available to 11-18
year olds in the UK. Solution: A series of interactive beatbox posters were designed for the classroom in order to teach classmates of the fundamentals of music making. Each classmate is assigned a poster and starts by reciting the words in a rhythmic fashion using the preset templates at the bottom of each poster. The more people who join in, the fuller and more complex the beats become. |

Brief: To create a brochure for a series of lectures aimed at students to promote the awareness of typography. The lectures were given by eight typographers and typographic designers who toured the UK and Ireland in a coach. Solution: A design based entirely on type helps promote the correct use of typography, while providing a group identity for the lecturers. The brochure is unbound and can fold out to be viewed as one large spread. |

Brief:
To create a range of stationery for domestic use. Solution: Woodcut type was used to create the clients initials, using a capital 'C' and capital 'S', whereby the 'S' forms a 'G' when overlayed on top of the 'C'. This theme was carried throughout the different stationery elements, adjusting the height of the 'C' accordingly. The whole range is printed on recycled stock. |

Brief:
To create a range of promotional material for the Direction’s Show 2007, an exhibition of Central Saint Martins’ graduate and undergraduate work. Solution: The idea came from adopting the language of the placard bearer, but with a creative twist. The artwork was created entirely in-camera using long exposure photography and hundreds of large 12mm LED lights taped to batteries, which were used to create the type, arrow and to rain down on the scene. |

Brief:
To create a striking mailer to inform of a change of address. Solution: An A6 mailer was designed to show the move from number 37 to number 39 next door. The message was kept simple by overprinting the number ‘9’ on top of the old number. |

Brief: To create an identity and range of stationery for Annie Waites, a freelance chef working in London. Solution: Wine stains were used as the theme to run across the different stationery elements, with a different and slightly quirky variation used for each. The letterhead is printed double sided on an 80gsm recycled stock, which hints at a wine stain showing through on the reverse. |

Brief: An identity and range of stationery for Patrick Shanahan, a missionary working with street children in Africa. Solution: Each element of stationery illustrates the positive effects of the numerous programs in which Patrick is involved by means of photographs taken by friends working with Patrick in Accra, Ghana. The recycled paper stock, black and white photography and the red-earth colour of the text are all chosen for the natural, earthy colours found in Africa. [address changed to maintain privacy] |

Brief: To create a full range of stationery for high-profile, domestic use. Solution: A simple but elegant design was required, so a subtle incorporation of letterpress, cotton paper stocks and an
s-type glyph were used to complete the identity. [address changed to maintain privacy] A later commission required a quote from The Great Gatsby to be sandblasted into a glass table top. The design from the stationery was carried through into the text for the quote as well as for the house number. |

Solution: Norwegian photographer, Chris Johnsen, was commissioned to take a series of 12 photographs for each poster. Each poster was based on a quote that was taken from a blog on the ‘Design Against Crime’ website.
