Wedding Map

Private Commission. I designed an illustrated wedding invitation suite featuring a visual description of the couple's international history.

Wedding Numbers

Private commission. I designed illustrated table numbers for a wedding. The couple gave me a list of cities which have a special significance to them, and I created a series of illustrations featuring my clients' personal details and in-jokes.

Greeting Cards

Thefty was commissioned to design a range of typographical greeting cards for Roger la Borde, the London-based publisher and producer of luxurious, eclectic stationery products.

The cards are printed on uncoated, antique wove board, with glossy raised sections produced by specialty thermographic printing. You can see the range on the Roger la Borde Website, and you can now buy the cards from the Thefty Etsy or Folksy.
