New design work: Radhika Khimji Artist Portfolio

Last year, I had the pleasure of working with London-based artist Radhika Khimji on a portfolio featuring her recent work. I finally got my hands on the printed copy of the portfolio, which I'm generally very happy with (a spine would make it more elegant). Radhika's work is striking and it stands out, which meant the design could not be intrusive – even though the movement of the pieces feel like a composition that would work very well in anything by Hercules & Love Affair. This was the first portfolio for an artist I've worked on, and although I am a big fan of her stuff, I found it much easier to connect with the work after having been able to sit down with the artist in her studio, surrounded by the work, and leafing through her images and note/sketch books. Below are some images from the portfolio.

Latest work: Posters for Department of Social Science

I have been working with the Department of Social Science at Goldsmiths these past few months on their upcoming journal. I've also done some design work for other projects within the department organised by the Centre for the Study of Invention and Social Process. Posters found in the elevators of Warmington Tower! I have two others coming up and will post pictures up once I catch them around the college.

Latest work: Nour Festival of Arts 2014

A long project, I was happy to be taken on again to brand the 2014 Nour Festival of Arts. Sticking with the identity created in 2013, I wanted the 2014 catalogue to be different, but recognisable as the festival. The colour has become the key factor in this. For 2014, I used a cobalt blue, which I felt resonated with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Alongside the catalogue, I designed postcards, posters, and standing banners. Will photograph the catalogue properly soon!
