Studio Thomson short project:
We were given a brief to redesign the British currency system with Prince Charles as monarch, over a 24 hour period. We decided to pay homage to union jack with our design, playing with the idea of a collection of notes creating the flag. The colours represented are based on the current currency colours, and we decided on a modern-minimal design. Due to Charles’s interest in sustainability, our concept was to have the money produced in plastics, in order to prevent currency loss.
This is from the Gentletude project we did back in the autumn. I’ve decided to take another look at it, as I wasn’t happy with my outcome.
I spent a lot of time building a word generator, which was functional, however where function flourished, design lacked.
I decided to go with a “Mix Tape” concept. When guys give their gals a mixed tape, it’s a sign of affection.
So in the spirit of sharing acts of kindness, you can send someone this mixed tape, which generates the titles of songs having to deal with kindness, being nice, and love.

A small pet project business started when I was 10 years old - Online sales of handmade glycerine soaps, body lotions and creams, gift baskets and favours. Available for wholesale and retail.
A cuff created from steel nuts. These are two of my experimental jewellery design pieces, getting away from the more classical design and making use of interesting materials.
PRESS & BLEED proudly presents Eightfold a launch of new publications by second year BA Graphic Design students at Chelsea College Of Art and Design.
Co-ordinated by Ben Branagan, Kieron Dennis, and Ray O’meara the exhibition represents the culmination of the spring terms major project. 48 students have worked in groups to produce 8 creative publications spanning a variety of subjects including Folklore, Pyschology, Adventure and Experience’s. Each publication redefines the notion of what a territory is, but also what a publication can be.
Our work “echo” will be on display.
Echo: After researching folklore in depth, my group became fascinated with the communication within cultures who still hold onto their heritage by passing down traditions through generations. After looking at different aspects of folklore as a way of communication, we decided to create this tapestry as our final piece.
This tapestry was created using traditional cross-stitch and patterns, with a modern QR code in the centre. This code is fully functioning and links to a website were we recorded our research.
We catalogued classical/folk objects and made an online mobile archive.
In going with the “folk” theme, we hand-embroidered a tapestry QR code which directed you to the site on your mobile phone.
Over 100 hours went into the creation of the tapestry.
This is a short type experiment. I grew CuSo4-5H2o (Copper sulfate pentahydrate) into monoclinic crystals and calcified forms on different materials and looked at the different textures that were created. I used these textures to create type, looking at “natural” textures in font.
The final version of our Max Hattler Animation project. Our prompt was black and white, dot to black.
We decided to take a sort of progressive approach to the animation and have the forms sort of morph together with the finale producing an after image which quite literally faded to black.
