ABOUT:

Birmingham-based graphic designer, focusing primarily on the design of publications and other typographically-driven printed matter, including typesetting, usually for clients in cultural sectors. 
    I am also a writer, focusing mainly (but not exclusively) on graphic design history. My debut book; Mid-Century Modern Graphic Design, was published by Batsford in May 2019. The Graphic Design Bible was published by Ilex Press in September, 2023. 
    Lecturer on the BA Graphic Design course at Birmingham City University.
