LCAD & SundayClub

Photobucket
Above is a snap of Nathan setting up for our photo shoot last week. And below is the final result, unfortunately the pitch was unsuccessful. Oh well, win some, lose some. Still had a lot of fun doing it!

These pictures are of the packaging for my 'AllThePies' font which I'm selling at the NousVous Sunday Club event next weekend. The idea was to make the buying and selling of typefaces a more personal, tangible and tactile process. These qualities were emphasised by screen printing on a variety of uncoated stocks, and unique disk designs.

Available exclusively at Sunday Club, only £5 a go!

I've also entered this typeface into the monthly typographic flair competition over at creativematch.co.uk.

BUSY-BUSY-BUSY!

Been non-stop recently :)
I've been working on a pitch for the Leeds College of Art & Design end of year show promotional material, an image of which has been added to the typography section. For this I had to call in skills of photographer friend Nathan Beddows! In a creative trade off I built him a portfolio website, designed to really simple to update and gave him some dreamweaver lessons! I created a simple identity for his site, that would happily sit in the back ground and let the images do the talking.



Other projects I've got on the go at the moment include finishing all the kerning pairs for my recent 'AllThePies' typeface, a logo for a Leeds based community arts project, finishing 'YCN' and 'Design North' competition submissions as well as creating some packaging to sell my fonts at the next 'Sunday Club'. Oh and I'm still trying to track down work placements!

New Work Added

To the typography section.
AllThePies is a new bold and striking display typeface; ugly in parts, huggable in others, fat all round.
