RSA Design Directions 1 of 1

05_RSA StampsAwarded_Royal Mail Award and RSA Fellowship

A range of stamps created to encourage the younger generations to collect stamps, part of the Royal Society of Arts Design Directions. I created a range of bright and vibrant stamps that incorporated several interactive functions.

This feature allows the user to upload an image or message to the stamp and post it. The aesthetics within the stamps reflect this technological concept.

AboutI’m a young and enthusiastic graphic designer recently graduating from Duncan of Jordanstone, city of Dundee. I started my design education at Forth Valley College where I completed their NC, HND, and BA programmes before transferring into third year at Dundee.

During my studies I’ve picked up awards from student briefs including an RSA award.

I have a strong passion for typography and pride myself on getting the smallest detail right but I’m also extremely versatile and enjoy new challenges. I enjoy using illustration and photography or being more hands on in order to create pieces of design.

Thank you for taking the time to look through my portfolio. Please feel free to contact me for any enquires you may have.
