About

Recent graduate in Graphic & Media Design from the University of the Arts London, London College of Communication. Multidisciplinary designer interested in brand identity, web design,and motion graphics. Strong storyteller with strategic approaches and high-quality outcomes across platforms (Adobe Suite, Figma, and Framer).

Botanicore is a handcrafted beeswax-wrap brand developed with a fully sustainable approach to both product and packaging design. The project explores how far visual design can be pushed while minimising material use and waste. I used kitchen fruit and vegetable scraps to naturally dye the wraps, reducing waste and avoiding synthetic dyes. For the patterns, I created a single woodblock design that could be rotated and repositioned to generate varied compositions while minimising production materials. I also experimented with embossing to reduce ink usage. The project demonstrates how sustainable materials and production methods can become an integral part of the brand’s visual identity.
