David Thorpe Memorial Prize
I am a graphic designer specialising in editorial design and art direction, with skills in Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. My design style is modern and contemporary, and often explores playful layout solutions. I delight in the narrative editorial design can offer and throughout my practice I have developed various approaches to editorial design; examining grid use and type systems, page structuring, and the development of layout and visual identity.
I also enjoy art direction and image creation, looking at how type can be paired with imagery, as well as creating my own image solutions with illustration and directed photo shoots. I have always been passionate about responding to global issues, and have found my love for editorial and print allows me an outlet for creating conscious design solutions.
