Freddy has been around for years and years but recently we were asked to come up with a new design for Freddy (I’ll do a separate post on that) and also a newContinue reading “Freddy Fyffes Packaging”

In the summer of 2015 Fáilte commissioned artist James Earley to produce a mural in the docklands area of Dublin.

They also wanted to build interest in the piece while it was being produced and bring the audienceContinue reading “Street Art with Pedigree”
The Open University – Hubble
To mark the 25th birthday of the Hubble telescope we joined forces with The Open University to celebrate some of the amazing images that Hubble has returned showing the distance depths of our galaxy. We created a series of postcards showcasing the further reaches of the Milky Way and beyond. This piece got picked upContinue reading “The Open University – Hubble”
The Doyle Collection – Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day inspires a lot of work every year. For our Washington piece we wanted to highlight some cheap romantic spots in the city and produce a map. We realised that the Potomac river offered us a great opportunity to frame our map in a heart shape and the roads and tributaries could be madeContinue reading “The Doyle Collection – Valentine’s Day”
The Doyle Collection – Chinese New Year
This year is the Chinese Year of The Ram/Sheep/Goat. Nobody can seem to decide which it definitely is.

The Doyle Collection – Sherlock Holmes
For over 100 years the character Sherlock Holmes has captured imaginations all over the world. To celebrate The Bloomsbury Hotel’s Sherlock Holmes themed package in London we designed a timeline showing some of the ways Sherlock Holmes has found his way into popular culture. Thanks to Maeve Heslin and Chris Flynn who worked with me on this piece.
The Doyle Collection – Comedic Counterpoint
As part of an ongoing content series for The Doyle Collection we were asked to highlight a comedy festival that was taking place in Bristol.

Thanks to Maeve Heslin andContinue reading “The Doyle Collection – Comedic Counterpoint”

We wanted something to catch people’s attention and so we started looking around for people toContinue reading “Pliable Me Video”
Album Promotion Material
Self-releasing an album takes up a lot of time and also a good bit of money. However, it does also give you the freedom to do some interesting things and in the end it is very satisfying when you can say “Yeah, we did all that ourselves”. It also means that when that little bitContinue reading “Album Promotion Material”
Nothing Good gets Away
Recording an album is a long slog. Well, maybe it doesn’t have to be but we decided early on that if we were going to do it, we were going to do it right. We’d spend the time writing, rewriting, destroying, reconstructing and basically working our asses off until we were happy with our songs.Continue reading “Nothing Good gets Away”
