Graphic Design / Visual Identity / Branding / Collateral

Named after the town where Woodstock 69' took place, restaurant and bar Bethel Woods incorporates themes of youth, liberation and alleviation associated with the time - providing a counter to the 9 to 5 lifestyle and a sense of nostalgia for some.

With a strong focus on high-quality meat, craft beer and live music, branding and decor combines the fun feel of a roadside diner with hippie and rock 'n' roll aesthetics that match Bethel Woods' high level of produce.        

Illustration / Publication / Risograph

“Released over three years to coincide with Wellington’s annual Zinefest, this esoteric opus tells of two beings on the run—one, who, due to the abstraction in their abdomen, is unconsciously aligned to a pre-determined destiny, and the other, who, acting as a guide, attempts to navigate a strange new terrain.”

Each release of Tummy Troubles was hand drawn and printed in a different colour - the first blue, second red and third black using a risograph (digital screen-printer). At the release of all three, a poster was included that doubled as a wrap around cover featuring all three colours to tie each book together.

Various 2D Illustrations

Illustration / Packaging  

Caterpillar Book Cover

Book cover redesign of Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland. Focusing on the character of the smoking caterpillar, the illustration explores methods that produce a 3D feel to 2D imagery. Complete with a belly band, the cover unfolds into one entire image. 

 It's A Cosmonaut Situation!

This is a toy created entirely from balsa wood. Moveable pieces allow the user to interact with the cosmonaut situation in order to help the team blast off from the strange planet they seem to have crash-landed on. All pieces, including a removable launchpad, are hand painted in a nostalgic fashion.

Graphic Design / Publication

Made for Midwaste, a publication of arts and culture articles relevant to the Midwest of America, this spread focuses on the life and achievements of Buckminster Fuller, a well-known futurist designer, architect and philosopher based in this region during the late 1800s. Using a reduced palette, the pages increase in colour to coincide with the near-death state of Buck's life suddenly turning into hope and inspiration. Geodesic shapes and patterns are frequently used throughout to reflect Buck's well-known futurist style.

Asked by Grrrl Zine Fair to create a mascot in the vein of classic mascots like Microsofts Clippy, I created Zeeny, a character used in Grrrl Zine Fairs instructional videos demonstrating how best to construct a zine. https://www.instagram.com/grrrlzinefair

EP + Album Covers / Tour Poster / Graphic Design

The release of the BLACK CITY LIGHTS 2013 album ANOTHER LIFE consisted of three singles, each containing a different symbol that when combined, make up the image on the album cover. As each was released throughout the course of the year, this concept worked well to promote the album and build a gradual hype around its release.
