Beside the product work

Other things I make

A book of essays, and identity and illustration for clients. Not the center of the work: the same judgment, at a different scale, and the same hands.

While We’re Here

A square hardcover of small essays on attention, time, and being alive, produced from HTML and CSS to a press-ready PDF.

How I built it

While We’re Here as a square hardcover, the title set in tall black Didone capitals over a watercolor bloom crossed by fine technical drafting, with two open spreads behind it.

Identity and illustration, for clients

I take on identity and illustration work too, now and then, mostly when it connects to a product, a publication or an idea I am already helping shape.

The five core brand colors and their hex values run in a row beneath it.
