House of Fraser, London
This project, commissioned by the London office of House of Fraser, a leading UK-based department store, was to develop a name for this high-end brand of homeware for a sophisticated, fashion-savvy shopper. The result was ‘Casa Couture’ – a marrying of the the home (’Casa’) with a sense of quality and exclusivity (couture) and a little alliteration thrown in so that it rolls off the tongue pleasantly.

No commentsMy Architect
This recently launched company aims to present architectural services in a fresh, more accessible way to a mainstream market. My task was to develop a positioning statement and a language for all collateral that was clear, accessible and inspiring to this market, while explaining the details of My Architect’s approach in an engaging way. The language also needed to move away from the design-speak of architectural magazines and pivot the message away from ‘presenting what we’ve created’ to an emphasis on ‘what we can do for you’.

No commentsOut, damn’d spam! Out, I say!


This Singapore-based company needed a brochure that created a sense of seriousness and urgency about the ever annoying problem of spam.
I was approached to create a brochure that cut through the tough competition in this sector. My solution was to create a tone of voice that treated spam like a life-threatening virus and got straight to the point with an effective solution.
