Print Room Previews

I've been in the print studio a lot this week, trying to catch up on some work from last term and also to try out some new techniques for a project that's been giving me so much grief with what to do with it!

Hopefully I can make something of these prints so I can reduce my stress levels when it comes to this project. They look cool and quirky but it's the treatment of them now that is going to define whether they are fit for purpose or not...

(Vague much...?) :P

Muesli out of Museli: Typography project experiment

Apologies for lack of blogging recently, Christmas was crazy busy and I've only just got back into the swing of things with uni work! (Sorta...)

For one of my projects which is typography based I've been trying out some words using the food they're mentioning! Here's my experiments with 'Muesli' made of Muesli! :)

UPDATE: Great Gatsby Inspired Cocktail Menu!

Apologies for lack of updates, these past few weeks have been crazy!

Here's an update on the Great Gatsby style cocktail menu I was designing a few weeks back for my Students Union in Leicester! I'm really happy with how this turned out considering it was a piece that needed to be produced really quickly. As a result of this design I've also been asked to design some wedding invitations in a similar style so a job well done indeed it seems!

More updates to come soon! :)

BRAND NEW Canvas Prints!

Recently I was asked to print some of my work for a few customers, and it's the first time I've ever had work printed onto canvas! (By request). I have to say I really like the overall finish of them, but the pricing has little to be admired.

When I have the time I think I'll have to explore some more printing techniques and learn these things myself to cut down on costs! Fingers crossed the people will like them though! I do! 

Creating A Cocktail Menu! (Gatsby Style)

Recently my boss asked me to create a cocktail menu for our Students Union new cocktail night. I've been given complete creative freedom with this, which is always a little more difficult than working to a brief, but tonight I've really taken off with the design!

I found a menu in a similar style and it made me think of The Great Gatsby and glamour and tried to capture this in the design. It's still unfinished, but tomorrow will be fine tuning everything and then getting it ready for print on Friday!

I was a little apprehensive about doing this but I'd be quite proud to tell people I've created this now after realising what I want to do with it! Keep an eye out for the finished product soon!
