Portishead Pool
Recently I revisited Portishead open air pool – the perfect spot on a hot, sunny day!It’s located next to the estuary in Portishead, and you have to drive past the lakes where people are driving their miniature remote controlled boats and having picnics. So you already feel like you’re on holiday as soon as you […]
Being a Graphic Designer: Tech and Stationery I use
My desk is super old and definitely not what I’d choose now (90s silver legs – ew) BUT it is huge and so I thought I’d put up with it for a little longer. It’s actually a really horrible orange laminate wood colour so I covered it in sticky backed white vinyl which works wonders! (I got mine from the Bristol scrap store for pennies but Wilkinson sells a similar version here).
Morocco – Agadir
The hotel we stayed in (read my post about it here) is located in the coastal town Agadir. There isn’t much history because they had a massive earthquake in the 1960s and everything had to be rebuilt. You can see there is still major work going on, and I’m sure it’s all changing rapidly. This […]
Morocco – Marrakesh

The weather was a crazy 45°C, […]
Morocco – The Hotel
My boyfriend and I went on our first proper holiday together in June. Actually, it was my first proper holiday for about 4 years (cue panic buying A LOT of holiday clothes!) So it was well needed.Morocco was somewhere I’ve always wanted to go, for the amazing architecture, patterns and bright colours, so I was […]
Life Update – Getting a design job and moving house
Hello!So I have been away from blogging for a looooong time and a lot has happened. I used to blog as a creative outlet, but when I started my degree in Graphic Design pretty much all my creative energy was going into that, and this blog took a major back seat. I’ve always had in mind […]
Lazy Land
I was down in London recently and stumbled upon Lazy Oaf’s exhibition ‘Lazy Land’. I didn’t know it was on but it wasn’t hard to miss the giant inflatable entrance! I’ve always loved Lazy Oaf, their playful branding is so perfect coupled with the pastel colours.The exhibition marks their 15th anniversary, they had some very nice […]
