I had the very lovely honour of designing Cliona and Paul’s wedding invites. I created a set of acrylic stamps for them to customise every paper-related aspect of their wedding. Hard work but everything had a nice, hand-applied feel to it. It was one of best weddings I’ve been to; a supercool gospel choir, lovely folks at our table, tear-inducing heart-felt speeches, a gorgeous setting and a great atmosphere. And they also happen to be some of the most talented people I know. Good luck for the future you two!

Street Feast is a brilliant concept. It’s one day in the year where neighbourhoods across Ireland host a lunch in their streets, local parks or front gardens. It’s a great excuse to share good food and meet interesting people who live nearby.

Samuel and the Street Feast team asked us to help them get the word out so I developed a friendly, illustrative look and feel, a custom typeface and a downloadable guide to running your own feast. If you’re in Ireland hop along to streetfeast.ie and join the party on the 18th July.

I got contacted in January by Lowe Roche (a lovely Canadian design agency) to help them create some hand-lettered 6 sheet ads for the Pawsway center in Toronto.

I love hand-lettering illustration jobs and this was a great job to work on. I do get through a heck of a lot of paper and ink. I’ve been working with a brush I bought in NYC that uses regular ink cartridges. I’d be lost without it.

We (Atto) hosted a sugru HACKquarium on Tuesday night at the Black Box and invited 40 chums to come and hack their old stuff better. We’ve been working with Jane (sugru inventor) for about 3 – 4 years now and we’re totally in love with the product. They’re the best people in the world to work with too. Long live sugru.

The Good Little Company has now donated 1,000,000 meals through it’s buy one, give one free offer. That’s a little bit world-changing.
