PORTFOLIO

Illustration, graphic design & art direction

SWOON by SLH

MAGAZINE DESIGN, ILLUSTRATION & PRINT PRODUCTION

I led the creative direction for Swoon by SLH magazine, shaping its brand identity and visual storytelling. From concept to completion, I oversaw art direction and layout design, crafting a distinctive aesthetic to showcase thoughtfully curated travel stories. My work encompassed bespoke illustrations and meticulous attention to the print process, ensuring a beautifully produced publication that engages and inspires readers.

A sun-soaked celebration for Small Luxury Hotels, held at the whimsical and wonderfully characterful Maison Colbert in East London. The printed elements were designed with a nostalgic nod to Italy, drawing on vintage charm while feeling right at home amongst Maison Colbert's eclectic, story-filled interiors.

SLH SPRING LUNCH at Wild by tart

A spring lunch for Small Luxury Hotels, hosted at the beautiful Wild by Tart in London.

Every detail was considered and crafted — from the wildflower and grass arrangements in terracotta pots, to the bespoke menus and hand-designed place names. The palette drew on the best of an English spring: meadow greens, soft whites and warm golden yellow. Joyful, but effortlessly relaxed.


A full brand identity for Spruce, a new restaurant at the beautiful Newhall Mains estate in the Scottish Highlands. Rooted in the landscape around it — forest, field and firth — the identity spans logo design, menus, web, email, social and brand touchpoints, with a handcrafted spruce tip illustration woven throughout. Earthy, considered and deeply connected to place.


The Fish Hotel x Roxie Nafousi for SLH

An influencer event at The Fish Hotel, created for Small Luxury Hotels of the World in partnership with author and manifestation coach Roxie Nafousi. The styling, printed elements and creative direction of the floristry came together to create a warm, earthy tablescape — pampas, dried grasses and white blooms set against rich wood and burnished gold, with every detail considered from the place setting to the welcome bouquets.


Loyalty club

Creative direction and design for the SLH Club loyalty programme — the membership scheme for Small Luxury Hotels of the World. The work spans voucher design, campaign imagery and brand collateral, all carrying the programme's bold, joyful energy into every touchpoint.


travel illustration

From hand-drawn maps and editorial spreads to festive prints and social assets, illustration sits at the heart of the work. Hotels, travel brands and lifestyle clients commission bespoke pieces that bring warmth and personality to everything from printed guides to digital campaigns — the kind of detail that makes a brand feel truly considered.


Wedding Illustration

For many years, bespoke wedding illustration was a core part of my work — hand-painted cake designs, illustrated maps, seating plans and botanical motifs, each made uniquely for the couple. A chapter that quietly shaped everything that came after.
