01 — Brand Identity
Between
Spaces
Identity · Events

Experiential events crafted for women by women — flower styling, candle making, and the quiet art of gathering. An identity built on softness with intent: staggered, colour-shifting, warmly off-centre.

BRAND STRATEGY & IDENTITY

I build visual systems for founders and growing businesses — from naming and positioning to the full rollout of identity, packaging, and communication.

Identity · Print · Web

A complete visual world for a sustainable children's wooden toy brand. Logo, colour system, character illustrations, packaging, guidelines, and website — built to feel timeless and tactile.

In Brief

03 — Motion
Theatre
of Life
Animation · Motion Design

Life is a stage and we are all characters finding our scenes. This motion piece explores colour, rhythm, and movement as metaphor — a reminder to play your part with full presence and enjoy the show while you're in it.

"Strong design is not decoration — it is a cultural tool that simplifies, communicates, and connects."

Belly

Pet Spa · Store

A pet spa and store with a personality as big as its love for animals. The brand identity captures warmth, playfulness, and trust — a logo with enough character to live across signage, packaging, and in motion.

Album
Covers
05 — Typography · Exploration

A personal series exploring what album art could look like led entirely by type and concept — each cover responds to a song's mood through lettering alone.

THE THINKER

An ongoing personal series — found images, vintage diagrams, botanical fragments, and objects assembled into small worlds with their own internal logic.

Collage · Art

Assembling the strange and the beautiful. Each piece is a conversation between fragments — fleeting moments of surprise when disparate things suddenly belong together.
