Dolce Stone Healing Stones and Accessories
A healing stone and accessories brand, Dolcie Stone’s brief was presented as a design competition, requiring the image to reflect the meaning of its name Dolcie, meaning ‘sweet’ within its logo. I created a logo of a fusion of gemstones and ice creams in cones. The gemstones are full of colours which signify the unification of all the healing stones and their powers. My design was the winning entry, selected from more than one hundred entrants.

So Restaurant Contemporary Japanese Dining
CONTEMPORARY
J A PA N E S E
DINING
Located in central London, So Restaurant is a contemporary Japanese restaurant. Whilst respecting its existing brand identity, in order to further promote the business and expand its clientele, I designed promotional flyers and redesigned their menus incorporating requisite flexibility to allow menu content to be changed easily with the ability to be printed in house. I developed a line drawing style which enhanced the sense of simplicity and vibrancy that the brand required and researched and installed t h e b est p r i nte r o pti o n s f i t fo r p u r p os e to achieve the client’s aims.

Typography / Icon Design
World Visual Language Final Major Project
We are living in world where we can travel one country to another easily and this has made us realise the differences in cultures and languages. It’s a pity that we can’t always communicate to those who are living in the different country. If we can’t communicate verbally to them, how about communicating visually?
The root of communication is about telling others what your intentions are.
2. The objective / what? The second circle represents the object of the first circle. ex. I want to go to a restaurant
1. Action / I want to do... The first circle represents the action of your intention. ex. I want to go.
3. How? The third circle represents how you want to approach to your intention. ex. I want to go a restaurant by car.
Ideograms / a character symbolising the idea of thing.
I want to go to a restaurant by car.
A E I O U Phonogram / a symbol representing a vocal sound.

HEAL Treat Yourself With Art
Treat Yourself With Art For many people, the reason they find themselves in hospital is unexpected. They maybe a patient or a visiting friend or family member. In addition hospitals employ many staff such as doctors and nurses besides cleaners, receptionists, chefs and administration staff who are all brought together into the hospital environment. Whoever we are, I think it is commonly felt that hospitals can be scary, emotional and stressful places that may make us want to flee. An art gallery, on the other hand, is a place where people choose to go to find peace, relieve stress and experience joy. Art can deliver emotional changes within our minds and this is the mechanism by which art inspires us. Taking this into account, an art gallery within a hospital can provide a sanctuary to help relieve negative feelings and thus in turn, art helps to heal the mind.

Glaber Permanent Hair Reduction Treatment
Glaber is a permanent hair reduction product produced by Akos Healthcare Ltd. It is claimed to be as effective as laser treatment but kinder to skin and wallet. Glaber i s u s e d w i t h i n p r o f e s s i o n a l b e a u t y s a l o n s o n l y, s o the brand required a style that would fit this niche environment. As the client wished to emphasise the effectiveness of Glaber, I created a style built upon the essence of chemistry while being mindful to avoid being too clinical or harsh. The logo captures the moment a drop of liquid is about to fall and make its magic happen. The project was undertaken in co-operation with Anna Barisani, a well-regarded graphic designer.
