A delight to see this thriving high street business in Newark go from strength to strength and move to larger shop premises.

Huge congratulation to Hannah 👏👏👏

I designed this logo back in 2017 at the launch time of Hannah’s business.

I absolutely love seeing entrepreneurship like this particularly in some tough times on the high street.

As an openly confessed lover of turquoise, I’m not surprised why so many of us are drawn to teal….

Aside from it still trending as an interior colour….this definition reminds us why we are drawn to colour and why it may embody the core values of your business brand.

These subtle messages we are sending out when we select colour convey a greater meaning and this is supposed to be intentional.

Logo work for an upcoming venture the Repair Cafe in Newark for the Newark Borrow and Repair Group.

An initiative set up to fully embrace sustainability by the notion of fixing and repairing. We all have household items that simply need mending but do not always have the skill set to do so. The idea behind the Repair cafe is to bring items to expert fixers who have the tools and capabilities to bring items back to life and full working order.

Working closely with who briefed me - I was also asked to design a poster promoting an event to take place this October.

In 1977, Apple needed a new logo to replace its original, overly complex design by co-founder Ronald Wayne, which depicted Isaac Newton under an apple tree with a poetic inscription. Steve Jobs, preparing to launch the Apple II—the first personal computer with a color display—wanted a modern, approachable logo to reflect the company’s innovative and user-friendly ethos. Janoff, a young art director at Regis McKenna, was given the project with minimal direction from Jobs, famously summarized as, “don’t make it cute.”

While the logo was hand-drawn (not designed on a computer), Janoff’s sketches were refined into a precise, geometric form. By 1990, Landor Associates further streamlined the silhouette for consistency, using careful measurements to maintain its proportions. The logo’s simplicity ensured it remained legible even at small sizes, such as on product labels or software icons.

Wonderful to meet up with uber talented ladies & combining photographic, content creation - including visual and audio. Female energy at its best, Hatty and Stephanie put you at ease immediately channeling ‘best friend’ vibes with razer sharp commercial awareness.

Head shots and content shots were on offer today but always in person connections bring a magic unquantifiable. It’s why we should ALL keep meeting up in person!!!

Logo design for - Newark’s Art Centre.

Tasked with designing a logo to support ongoing ‘chat’ sessions - the first taking place this Saturday.

Love this playful font - it’s called “Hello-Notie” and works well to give an informal vibe and friendly feel.

Having worked previously with Coreset’s existing brand and colour guide - it’s good to have the graphics sit well together.

Grabbing words….

In attractive fonts….

Do a particular job…

We have a tiny window in this sphere we call ‘social media’ to grab attention…

The right words, with the right layout will achieve this….

Good graphic design is a combination of not only design but language too….
