The Red Pear Theatre Story

Publication

Hilary King came to me with an incredible story. She and her husband built an independent theater in the South of France. It started off in their living room, slowly grew into a proper theater. This 300-page book documents Hilary and the theatre’s journey. I based the design on showcasing the posters, images, and newspaper clippings that Hilary has meticulously collected over the years.

Blood, Sweat & Tears

Publication

I volunteered to create a publication distributed at London College of Communications’s MA final project exhibit along with 2 other students. The publication includes students projects, interviews with professionals and each publication was covered with a poster designed by one of the students. We had very limited funds the paper was donated and the publication was printed using a riso printer, giving it a unique texture.

ALJ Annual Report-1

Publication

When working at the Brand Union Dubai one of our clients came to us with a problem. Young people were not interested in working for them. Instead of creating an advertising campaign, we dug deeper into the company and found that community initiatives is a big part of what they do. We decided to design an annual report where each spread is a story of someone this company helped. Due to their limited budget, most of the content was created by hand, which created an authentic feel to the report.

ALJ Annual Report-2

Publication

The second ALJ community initiatives annual report was soleley my project and I enjoyed it immensely. I decided to contrast what we did last year and stick to black and white while keeping the handmade elements that made the first report special.
