Netta's Kitchen is a social enterprise in Budleigh Salterton, Devon which helps people with learning disabilities build skills and confidence through making and selling products. It is part of the Launchpad day service.
I helped to design their rebranded chutney labels.
Here are the initial sketches with the finished labels on the product:
Version 5 of a poster representing the 4,096 colours with short colour codes in the red, green and blue colour space.
View the colours in a table and compare contrast.
Version 4 was similar but had a few different colour names:
Version 3 with more generic colour names.
Version 2 with the 4,096 colours in hexagons:
Version 1 with just the 216 "web safe" colours:
It's a Euro 2020 wallchart, but it's the 1970s New York City Subway map by Massimo Vignelli (link goes to a New Yorker article).
This version was heavily influenced by the digital version by Max Roberts on tubemapcentral.com.

Several of us previously moved from the Government Digital Service into a new team, the Central Digital and Data Office - still part of the UK Cabinet Office at the time. Here are some very unofficial suggested logos for that team.
The last one got the most positive feedback, so here's a larger version of it in blue 😀
Victoria (Mrs Hick) has an Etsy shop for her embroidery, Little Stories Art. She embroiders lovely brooches, landscapes and custom pictures.
We worked on the logo together - Victoria asked for it to feel feminine, natural, flowing and adventurous.

I'm helping to rethink the brand identity of Imagetek, a document scanning and archiving company.
I've helped them simplify their website (first iteration now live) and updated some of the imagery.
The new logo takes fonts and colouring from the current one, but in a cleaner, more crisp form, reflecting the business's core service of scanning.
The design went through several iterations, exploring digitisation and binary numbers, eyes, pixels, 'I's, the letters "IT" and scan lines.
Looking at all angles of the business, and in discussion with them, the single scan line ended up as the most simple and elegant way to encapsulate the brand.
The logo for The Lazarus Boys, West Yorkshire's finest multigenre duo of musical Clives.
This is a suggested shorthand for taking notes on digital and design topics. The main criteria for each design is that it is easy to draw with a pencil.
Inspired by a session on sketchnoting by Dr Makayla Lewis at UX Bristol 2016.
