- What I do ...
In a nutshell, I offer bespoke packaging that perfectly fits the given brief. I design the package around the product & supply a concept model for feel and viewing. Once the concept is finalised I work alongside a suited creative to design the artwork or simply submit my cutterguide/dieline through to your nifty graphics team & hey presto, a beautiful package is born. My packs are always designed with creativity, sustainability and production in mind. The beauty of working with me is that you get 10 years of ninja packaging skills and experience. Packaging to me is such an important element to any products development process as it is one of the most satisfying forms of design because you are creating something "real" something tangible that people can hold in their hands.
I’m in the game to create more than just a box, to design functional yet beautiful creations. It’s frustrating to keep finding products that have been chucked into a brown bag with a sticker on, or a box that a company with a flash CAD system has tapped in some dimensions on a library of standard designs and decided that it would probably do just fine. As a bonus my samples are lovingly & perfectly cut/creased by hand. This is a skill that beats any machine out there.
I enjoy a good brainstorming session & listening to your thoughts & ideas when starting projects. I design from scratch and to spec. There is no “that’ll do attitude” & I am a self confessed perfectionist when it comes to my work. From concept to execution I am an experienced creative who can lead a project from beginning to end - concept through to production, keeping to schedule & within budget.
THINK interactive business cards, direct mail pieces, promotional ideas through to retail packs - even cardboard furniture if you like!
Have a vision.. ? Share it with me, I'll make it happen. I harbour some serious skill and am used to working with cartonboard, PVC/PET, corrugated and rigid covered box work. So if you're looking for some fresh & creative ideas from a packaging expert but don’t want all the cardboard cluttering up your office space, give me a whistle...
