Design with weight.
Built from story, not surface.
Graphic design shaped by material, tension, and place.
No gloss. No filler. Just work that holds up.
About
I’m a graphic designer focused on work that feels physical, even when it’s digital.
My design for J. Gow Rum is rooted in contrast:
heritage vs modern, control vs rawness, precision vs imperfection.
Influenced by Orkney’s coastline, industrial textures, and the process of making, not just the outcome.
I’m not interested in decoration.
I’m interested in presence.
Services
Identity
Stripping brands back to what matters – then rebuilding them properly.
Packaging
Design that earns its place on a shelf.
Print
Work made to be held, not just seen.
Art Direction
Defining how everything fits together and where it breaks.
Philosophy
Most design is too clean.
Too safe. Too forgettable.
The work I’m interested in has tension.
It has weight. It leaves a mark.
Good design doesn’t just communicate
it feels like something.
