Hello! I’m Ruth, a London based multi-disciplinary graphic designer.
I enjoy experimenting with different print methods, exploring typography, layout, visual language and understanding what qualities they afford the platform. My interests lie in editorial design, brand & identity, marketing, social media and typography.
Outside of graphic design I enjoy all things outdoors & sports, 35mm & medium format photography, illustration, playing the trumpet, cooking and a cheeky pint!

Post Print: The Death of Digital
Post Print: an identity for an exhibition celebrating the revival of ink on paper at the renowned St Bride Foundation.
Inspired by my work using letterpress, I created and printed the identity using the relief printing method. This involved experimenting with textures through hand inking, revealing the qualities of the wood and lead type.
Saucy: a love affair with ketchup
Saucy: a love affair with ketchup, is a cultural manifestation exploring ketchup and the significance it holds. The publication was designed to feel fast paced with tension on the pages created by the slim margins and highly art directed photography, with the aim to keep the reader on their toes, and not feel too comfortable with a condiment one is familiar with.
