Since its launch in September 2010, MyDaily has become the UK’s largest single online fashion destination. I've been in charge of the design and upkeep of the site.
Homepage Graphics
The homepage features a DL rotater, which I update with attractive content throughout the day providing a link to the most exciting and important features on the site.
Article Graphics
Being on a basic blog platform, creativity is fairly limited. The content is also updated several times a day, meaning design needs a swift turnaround. Below showcases a variety of article graphics.

Le Petit Trou
Le Petit Trou is a boutique resort being built on Grenada, one of the last unspoilt Carribean islands. I was asked to create the branding for this exquisite venture, and aided in the creation of a tender document, a book to be passed on to a few elite clients to drum up interest and encourage investment opportunities. Using the rare Grenadian dove as inspiration, I created the logo, sourced the imagery and artworked layouts for the final piece.
Palamon Brochure
Palamon Capital Partners are a private equity partnership, along with re building and updating their website, I artworked and set the type for the Palamon 2007 Annual Review and the 2007 Palamon Brochure.
Healy Hunt Calendar & Champagne Tag
Healy Hunt is a boutique financial services executive search firm. I designed and artworked their 2008 calendar and Christmas champagne tag.
Hugo & Cat Calendar
Hugo & Cat is an online and interactive consultancy creating engaging and practical solutions for complex brand and business challenges. I was in charge of the design and creation of our 2008 calendar, with the addition of a new year’s gift tag.
Sony High Definition
I created this design for the high definition section of the Sony website. The top image is part of an animation representing high definition picture quality. The scene depicted shows glorious colour, sharp imagery and beautiful quality. The animation itself was interactive, the viewer revealed the high definition quality using a a slide wiper, shown to the left.
Ignite Website
Being a small company of only three people, we wanted something that first and foremost showcased the work that we created. But secondly, we wanted a site that also expressed us personally, and represented the excitable close atmosphere of the office. I created a character for each member, showing us in our normal, every day clothing, then produced corresponding characters from our favourite film and television programmes.

Queensbridge Quarter
Situated in the heart of Hackney, Queensbridge Quarter is an exciting new development.When creating this brochure, we wanted to reflect the hidden culture of East London. This was achieved by masking image through text and by overlaying transparent image sheets over inner leaves. Using spot u.v for the front and back covers also reinforced this idea. I photographed much of the imagery for this brochure, and aided in the creation of the spreads.
