Visual diary, two-page spread (student project, 2011)
The design aesthetic for this student project owes much to the textiles of William Morris. My campaign evolved from the idea that the Old Mill could have been a converted textile mill. You can see the individual logo designs in my previous post.


The diary pages are from a journal I designed for my Design & Arts College exhibition in 2012. Two years of research, ideas, word maps and sketches had to be reduced to a mere 72 pages. It was no easy task but I now have a beautiful, professionally bound diary that I’ll always treasure.
I see the influence – yes – Anna and very nice too ! Morris loved combining birds and trailing repetitive flower patterns . Such imagination and creativity . Mmm Black Cherry 🙂
There really is such a thing as cherry beer — KJD (a Christchurch brewery) makes a chocolate cherry porter. Mmmmm : ) [http://kjdbrewing.co.nz/beverages/chocolate-cherry-porter]
