PopmeUp.ie is a great new site I worked up a logo, banner and icons for.

"PopmeUp.ie is a great initiative run by a super team. If you need a pop-up space in Irelnas, these are the guys you need to talk to!"

Joe Macken, Owner of the pop-up restaurant CRACKBIRD, South William st, Dublin 2

Lovalee Catering - we wanted to create a friendly yet stylish card & flyer - to suit the company's market!

Arcitect farm - we kept this theme clean, simple & structured to suit the company! We designed full stationary to go with this too.

Mandurah landscapes - this card is fresh, fun & professional - what you get from Rob's landscape designs!

SASS - Tammie wanted to portray a sophisticated look with her secretarial company. We went with a single sided card on cream card. Including the photo helps create a personal touch! We designed full stationary to go with this too.

Uncorked: A Collection of Wines and Memories

2009-02-26T00:28:00.022Z

This was a really interesting project because it gave me the chance to use little gimmicks throughout - to steer away from the pretentiousness usually associated with wine guides etc.

I made an aroma wheel

This was to help the reader distinguish different tastes and flavours, it creates an interaction you can spin the wheel and discover what weird and wonderful flavours can be found

I discussed Blind Tasting

The gimmick here is that the word "Blind" is printed in yellow and the liquid in the glass and bottle of wine is also yellow. If you put red over yellow it can't be seen so I put transparent red paper as the page before this section which shows all the black print but not the yellow:

When you lift the page it reveals the Blind Tasting section - playful and fun it keeps the reader interested

Also Uncorked - the cover is hand printed on real cork board - adding a textile element to the book!

Nursing Staff Motivational Campaign for IPS

A motivational quote by Mary Manthy transformed into posters in an attempt to keep staff positive and upbeat....glass half full concept

A shortened version of the famous Edmund Burke quote "In order that evil triumph all that is required is that good men do nothing" This poster although dramatic has supposedly really had an affect in relation to improving morale.
