A Lady's Diary
This told the story of a unique artifact, an antique Indian writing chest containing a first edition of 'A Lady's Diary during the Siege of Lucknow' written in 1857. I designed a limited edition book with engraved slipcase with promotional postcards to accompany a fictional exhibition, telling the story of the diary and exploring the Indian Rebellion of 1857.

A poster series commenting on an aspect of Plymouth, the weather and architecture in particular. Posters were screen printed with lots of coloured inks on the screen. As they were pulled through each time, they became more and more blended, creating more and more grey posters.
Postcards from places you may never leave
This book and accompanying postcards showed a set of 'true' postcards from Torquay. At first glance they may appear vividly cheery, but clues are given in each scene to hint at something sinister that happened in that location, opening a hidden page reveals the newspaper tale.
