Studies.
This collection of independent studies explores the relationship between people, place, objects and environment through editorial design, photography and visual storytelling. Spanning material culture, psychogeographic research and contemporary Australian identity, the work examines how memory, atmosphere and human experience become embedded within landscapes, architecture and everyday objects. Together, the studies form an ongoing creative practice grounded in observation, narrative and cultural connection.

The Provenance Story.

The Provenance Story is a conceptual brand and editorial study exploring the relationship between people, process, place and the stories embedded within what we create. Developed as a flexible visual identity system, the project examines how contemporary brands can communicate more human narratives through atmosphere, imagery and layered storytelling rather than product alone.
Built around the idea that meaningful work rarely exists in isolation, the identity brings together fragments of process, landscape, material and human experience into a connected visual language. Through considered composition, editorial pacing and modular image systems, the project creates a sense of continuity between maker, environment and outcome, revealing the broader cultural and emotional context surrounding what we make.
Visually, the system balances warmth and structure through restrained typography, muted palettes and adaptable image frameworks designed to evolve across digital, editorial and campaign environments. The result is a study in narrative-led branding; exploring how visual identity can move beyond promotion to communicate atmosphere, provenance and human connection.

Tasmanian Makers
INCLUSIONS
EDITORIAL. MAGAZINE. COPYWRITING
Tasmanian Makers is an independent editorial concept exploring contemporary craft, materiality and slow making practices across lutruwita/Tasmania. The publication brings together artists, makers and traditional trades working across fibre, glass, print, timber, ceramics and architectural craftsmanship, documenting the relationship between process, place and material through restrained editorial storytelling.
Developed as a study in editorial design, art direction and publication systems, the project explores the visual language of premium independent journals through typography, pacing, imagery and atmosphere. The design balances quiet minimalism with warmth and tactility, using soft natural palettes, generous white space and image-led layouts to create a publication that feels calm, timeless and highly considered.
The publication was designed as a complete conceptual editorial system, including cover design, masthead development, feature layouts, contents spreads, typography hierarchy and visual pacing across multiple stories and disciplines. Combining editorial structure with atmospheric art direction, the project focuses on creating a cohesive publication experience that feels both culturally grounded and visually enduring.

Places We Carry.

EDITORIAL. MAGAZINE. WEBSITE. SOCIALS.
These independent studies are grounded in an ongoing interest in the emotional and psychological relationship between people, place and material culture. Through editorial design, photography and essay, the work explores how environments, objects and landscapes accumulate meaning over time, carrying memory, atmosphere and traces of human experience beyond their physical form.
Rather than documenting places in a traditional sense, the projects examine the feeling environments create; the quiet emotional weight of remote towns, weathered architecture, industrial landscapes and inherited objects. Together, the studies form an evolving creative research practice focused on observation, narrative and contemporary Australian identity through a psychogeographic lens.
Many of the studies emerge from an ongoing personal habit of collecting and observing images, objects and environments that carry a strong sense of emotional or cultural residue.
