Book Design
I have developed a comprehensive set of technical skills that ensure each project flows smoothly from concept to final production. This includes creating detailed layouts, selecting appropriate typography, and developing compelling cover designs that align with the book's content and target audience. My proficiency in industry-standard software, such as Adobe InDesign and Photoshop, allows me to manipulate images and create precise layouts. I also produce cutter guides to ensure that printed materials are accurately trimmed and assembled, maintaining the integrity of my designs. Collaborating effectively with printers is crucial, and I have a solid understanding of colour management, file preparation, and print specifications to guarantee that the final product meets high-quality standards. This blend of technical expertise and creative vision enables me to execute visually striking and professionally finished books.
Each page I thoughtfully illustrated to engage young readers, with playful details that invite them to actively join Teddy on his journey to cleanliness.

This lift-the-flap book with felt tabs was designed for babies requiring me to have a strong understanding of tactile design and safety, ensuring that materials are soft, durable, and easy for little hands to manipulate. It also involves skills in briefing the illustrator with scamps and layouts, allowing for engaging visuals that capture a baby's attention while encouraging sensory exploration and interactive learning.
Introducing a groundbreaking format for magic water colouring books that I saw through from my concept idea to publishing. It combines interactive magic water colouring and a new technique of stamping for tactile fun play.
