Friday 22nd January, 2010

Great article in the Guardian about the devices used by restaurants, and by us designers, to attract customers to their more profitable dishes and distract them from the low-margin items. Truly, a dark art.

Carte Blanc

Friday 13th November, 2009

Our ongoing relationship with the Brasserie Blanc restaurant group led to us designing their new loyalty / gift card and associated promotional campaign. Leaning heavily on 1950’s French modernism, we’ve created a distinctive and eye-catching set of visuals for this promotion. Just in time for Christmas…

Friday 13th November, 2009

Finally collected the samples of all The Stone Roses packaging we’ve been working on over the past few months, including the deluxe Collectors Edition (4cd’s , 3 vinyl and 48 page book), singles box set and other album formats.

LEL 1400

Thursday 6th August, 2009

Well, i finally completed the monster LEL 1400km ride in a less than impressive 118 hours. All went well for the fist 500km or so, but a combination of hills, rain, cold and fatigue took its toll. Got to Edinburgh in 44 hours but the return leg was a battle of epic proportions, only finishing with 20 minutes to spare. You can follow the full horror as it unfolded, click on the picture below
