'I Prompt You'

Here is a nice little task given to me by the guys at 'I Prompt You'. Drawn unnaturally with my left hand.
Part of YCN LIVE 'I Prompt You' is a participation event to encourage members of the public to draw, by asking them to fill in prompt cards using their left hand. See their findings and creations at Rough Trade in Brick Lane and check out their blog.

Proctors and Stevenson

I spent a weeks placement at Proctors and Stevenson
in Bristol this summer. It was great to experience 'real' work, with a well established firm. I had a mini project of logo design and branding for ESDIN and spent lots of time chatting to people about their roles, a great insight. Got the chance to visit a real live printers, which was great. Thanks to Mike Cain, creative director for all his help and knowledge.
Here's an example of a letter format with the logo I designed, all this corporate malarkey is new to me, but I like it a surprising amount!
