Stockwell Park Tiles

I was given three of the thirty tiles below to design. They were commissioned by a housing trust in South London to improve the general environment of the Stockwell Park Estate.

The brief required designs to tessellate, be colourful and work well when grouped (as above). Each was given a theme, which related to the history of the surrounding area. These are mine;

Pond Life

Roman Road

Windrush

The client was Network Housing for The Stockwell Park Estate. Design Week featured the story last week.

P of Pelicans in Victoria

Here are a couple of letters I did for a nice little Land Securities project. The hoarding reaches around a development in Victoria Street, London and consists of multiple letters illustrating different aspects of the area.
In these two I was asked to make up a P from Pelicans and a Zebra-striped Z.

Caption reads: "Pelicans in St Jame's Park are fed 12 pounds of fish every day, usually between 2.30pm and 3pm. Even so they sometimes get peckish in between. One of them was once photographed swallowing a pigeon whole."

The zebra story pertains to the 19th century zoologist and eccentric Walter Rothschild who drove a zebra-drawn carriage around the grounds of Buckingham Palace to prove the animals could be tamed.

The work was commissioned by Hat-Trick and I worked with Tim Donaldson, Jim Sutherland and Gareth Howat.
