Why magazines?
A unique format, they represent a medium that combines a number of essential elements - portability, tactility, repetitiveness and a combination of text and images - that have enabled them to be continually renewable and relevant. These factors, combined with recent developments in production methods and the influence of new media, have enabled magazines to retain their position at the forefront of modern communication and continue to be a source of inspiration globally. Magazine designers have become brand experts, responsible for some of the strongest brands around today. Combine a strong brand, a strong creative team and a magazine-literate client and you will get a powerful magazine.

A Feast for the Senses
This range of beautifully photographed food magazines were designed for Donal Skehan and Ross Golden Bannon. The magazine depicts the journey towards preparing one meal each time.

Horses for Courses
Its been a horsey summer so far. Goffs International produce three high end magazines to correspond with their three major sales each year. A focus on production values and an investment in quality are the cornerstones of their business and they expect it in their suppliers too.
A Modern Outlook
Getting the chance to work with some of the most interesting images of the 20th century doesn’t come around too often so I was very lucky to get that chance twice.
