A selection of logos and wordmarks I have created throughout my career.
Rebranding for B.O.B, which stands for “Best of Breed”. B.O.B is a CGI management company, rather than a representation agency.
The key difference is that an agent will source talent and pass on the work, having very little knowledge of the creative and technical process.
The network of talent under the B.O.B name are some of the finest and most highly awarded art and animation teams in the world.
The marque is based on a Fox head and is subtely made up of the letters ‘B’ ‘O’ ‘B’.
The graphic style is a nod to polygons that are used in computer graphics to compose images that are three-dimensional in appearance.
The Fox head also ties in nicely with the company name ’Best of Breed’ while ‘Fox’ is the the Managing Director’s surname.

Chocolatiqué is a standalone WDFG store in Helsinki Airport. Selling luxurious chocolates from some of the finest chocolatiers around the world.

Chateau de Minargent offers the finest facilities for an idyllic retreat. Set in the region of Charente Maritime, south West France, this lovingly restored mansion has been designed for sophistication and comfort in mind.
I was asked to create a new logo which needed to include the building itself.
I created a line drawing of the Chateau to give a modern but sympathetic illustration that architects would draw at the time of the buildings design.
Samples to follow.
Re-branding for the Brighton (UK) nightclub. My vision was to utilise hard hitting, eye catching photography and imagery to galvanise the links of the Union brand with its industrial perception. The project was successfully completed on a limited budget by my use of economical, appropriate pictures.

Working with the copywriter we co developed the department name for A&N Media’s new innovative IT section. I then developed the logo, signage and stationary based on the original concept.
Too often publishing companies are rigid, organised in silos, slow to react and to innovate. At A&N Media, which comprises Metro, the Daily Mail, MailOnline, Northcliffe Media and more, it is Sam Duncan Brown’s job as Head of Innovation to make this new culture of innovation stick.
The idea behind InnovationLab is to implement new technologies that have the greatest business impact but come at a low cost.
