Five illustrated posters promoting bus travel in the West MIdlands. I worked with I Choose Birmingham to develop a series of playful posters that add fun and colour to the routes and destinations accessible by bus. I researched the classic signatures and styles of 1950s posters to inspire a brand new series for a local audience, with each poster having atmosphere and presence to treat a bus shelter as an exhibition space that celebrates the West Midlands.
A4 mounted prints are available here.

Five illustrated banners celebrating Droitwich Spa, including its rich history rich salt trade dating back to the Roman times, to the newly installed canal walk, and art deco lido undergoing a big restoration. The aim of the banners is to add colour to the roadside and promote the wide range of culture and activities available in the town.
