PORTRAIT(S) OF CAMDEN
Collaborating with Artist, Designer and fashion researcher Joana Monteiro, I designed a book documenting the creation of four community quilts.
The quilts were assembled by WM College quilters, using portraits created by workshop participants across Camden.
I chose a square format for the book to reflect the proportions of the quilts and the portraits.
I divided the cover into 9 parts, choosing a selection of one of the quilts.
I divided the book into four colour-coded sections for clear navigation. Thread lines from the reverse of the quilts were used as graphic elements throughout the book, extending onto the back cover to mirror the front.
The book was launched at an exhibition and event at WM College in Camden.

WE ARE DESIGNERS
Working as a temporary designer through UAL Arts Temps, I developed the visual identity and all design assets for a community exhibition celebrating the work of women from Somers Town, Camden, who participated in sewing and garment design workshops.
The brief called for a playful, warm, and engaging identity that reflected the tactile, handmade nature of the workshops while appealing to a diverse local audience. I collaborated closely with the curator, project lead, and workshop participants, presenting concepts and incorporating feedback throughout the design process.
WE BELONG HERE
A book design for artist Marie Smith
I designed a book documenting Marie’s residency and exhibition in SpudWorks where she organised a series of workshops for people of colour living in the New Forest area.
The design process involved curating Marie's photographs to use in the book as well as the typography, layout and format of the book.

LOGIC CAPTURED IN THE MATERIAL
In this work, I have explored the use of visual metaphors in science communication.
Logic Captured in the Material is a project explaining the fundamental ideas behind how computers work and at the same time asking questions about the challenges of looking at ourselves through the concept of a computer.
I have combined hand-drawn illustration and animation with visual coding.

STORYTELLING SCIENCE
Storytelling Science is a collaborative project between UAL and London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine in which a group of postgraduate students from CSM were invited to design and deliver online creative science communication workshops with school children aged 13-17.
My team have designed a workshop platform using Miro with board games, interactive presentation and quizzes. My contribution included designing posters, banners and trailer video and other graphics for the workshops as well as co-designing main board game mechanics
