So the end of university is fast approaching, it's the last two weeks and we are all finishing off our Final Majors and getting ready for the end of year exhibition, it is all so very scary and daunting that we are all going to be out in the big world of design. I have this feeling though that I am more than ready for it though! surely that's gotta be a good sign! ;) So here it is my own logo to promote myself, I had designed this at the start of the year and never really thought to do much with it, i should have posted it or something, I guess I never seen the day would come were I would be putting myself out there ! maybe I was having a wee dream to myself that I would be a student all my days.


I will soon be posting my latest work once so stay tuned :)

HG.Wells

I designed these book covers for a well known designer HG.Wells, wasn't the most pleasant brief to do I had soo many ideas that no-one nor myself were really 100% happy with, but i finally cracked it and had a good tutorial for my final ideas. I am now happy with how my finals have turned out!

Packaging

Below is a sneek preview of some of the packaging, the picture isn't the best but I sure will h ave that sorted for hand-in stage.
I have designed packaging for Detox Tea, I enjoyed this brief alot, from development stage to final printing.

Letterpressing

I am currently working on a brief for Body Shop, I am required to create an unconventional brand campaign for The Body Shop to reinstate its position as the original pioneer of ethical beauty.So I finally got down to Caldewgate today to get some letterpressing done, I hopping my days events will come in handy for this project.

Channel X

This is a logo i designed for a male tv channel, here are a few screenshots of the main logo, and buisness cards

Much fun was had with this project as its colourful and vibrant also it was the 1st project that got me back into the swing of things after the accident with my hand!

Good times indeed! :)

The Design Museum

I took a wee trip to London in the Summer and have jus came across these photos i had taken, these arejus a selected few of things i found interesting! :]

I most definetly need to be getting myself on of these home libarys!

The amount of books I have collected since being at university is quite crazy!

DISSERTATION

Yes it is over!

Handed my dissertation in today with 2 days to spare!

Such a great feeling! Hope the results are good :)

What has being going on these past months!

Hi all! the last time i wrote on this was before christmas just as I was handing my work in! Well what a drama is the least to say! that tuesday we all got our gladrags on and went out to celebrate the festive season starting, It was great and such a relief to be finished for the holidays! We had this horrible icey cold snowy weather & I slid on a pavement and my right hand went down on a glass! Yea it was pretty nasty i tore the majority of the ligaments and tendants in my right hand, now for a designer you can imagine this is pretty awful and traumatic! I am on the mend tho, and celebrating today finally having my cast off! :) and hopefully my hand will get better in no time :) I am keeping positive about the whole situation as i feel its the best way to be in life!

over christmas all my projects and dissertation were on hold... so now that I am on the mend i am working mega hard to catch up with everyone! My wee left hand has being doing overtime these past few weeks! But I know it will all be worth it :)

above is a present Darren gave me when I was going to the hospital! It makes me laugh & Its also a memory that I think I'l keep forever!








Can't beleive the nurse actually gave the nurse a cast to match mine :D
