About

I believe a brand should be easy to recognise and hard to forget. Most of my work is taking things away until the idea is the only thing left.

Background

I grew up in Leeds and studied graphic design there and in London. My first job was setting type for posters in a small studio in Lyon, which taught me patience and a love of plain grotesques.

Practice

Today I run a one-person studio. I take on four or five projects a year, usually with a photographer, a writer and a printer I trust. I stay on a project from the first conversation to the last print check.

Outside work

I teach a typography class one evening a week and keep a shelf of exhibition catalogues I am slowly reading through.
