Graphic Communication - Book 2

Drawing on experience...

This book forms a collection of work from 2007, it contains infographic illustration and design project examples primarily produced with

Ramboll Whitbybird but also with other interesting and often related clients. The over riding aim of the work is aesthetic presentation of

concepts and often technical information. My inspiration is drawn from the subjects covered and my past experiences working in visual

journalism and publishing illustration. In at least two of these projects what interests and excites me greatly is the knowledge that this work

communicates across the constraints of language, technical and complex concepts on projects for public and humanitarian good. Notably,

The Rubble House, disaster relief shelter idea and The Equiano Centre, an educational resource centre, Waterloo, Sierra Leonne. A Ramboll

Whitbybird collaboration with The Waterloo Partnership.

Another area of much interest to me this year has been the sustainability and low energy focused projects. The Zero Carbon House with ESD

and a number of reports with ElementEnergy. These study Hydrogen, Fuel Cells and Micro Generation.

In all, an exciting year and I’m looking forward to new projects and challenges in 2008, continued relationships with RWB and forging new

partnerships, perhaps in the wider Ramboll group.

Best regards
