Client:  JACKY TSAI
Project:  WEBSITE 

Best known as the creator of the iconic floral skull image made for the S/S 2008 Menswear collection of the late British fashion designer Alexander McQueen, Jacky Tsai combines traditional Chinese painting techniques and references with western Pop Art styles.

With no previous branding or marketing collateral in place, the project presented the opportunity to carve out an identity and visual style for the artist, along with the layout and structure of a new website.

Client:  HELLOVON
Project:  COLLECTOR’S EDITION BOX SET 

Having worked with Von on various projects in the past, we continued the aesthetic qualities I’d established in the promotional mailer and website, to create a hand made Limited Edition box that would house 5 giclée prints taken from the artist’s ongoing “Semblance Series”. The box was designed to allow the artist to individually sign and number each one, with a degree of consistency.

Client:  KIRSCHNER
Project:  IDENTITY

Kirschner is a cycling apparel brand hailing from Santa Catarina, Brazil. As a start-up, they required everything from a name and identity, right through to the apparel design and promotional collateral. The final logo and overall direction was designed to convey a contemporary brand that recognised and celebrated the history at the root of the sport. The modern styling with vintage nuances give the brand its own unique identity, within an increasingly competitive market.
