Back in print. Really pleased to see the reprint of the Marthe Armitage book released to coincide with the new exhibition at Pitzhanger Gallery, London. The exhibition includes original drawings, prints, archive material and large-scale installed wallpapers and fabric, offering a rare insight into her life and passion for pattern making. The book was a real pleasure to work on, giving us the chance to explore a remarkable archive and bring Marthe’s drawings, prints and pattern work together in a single publication. It is also available to buy at marthearmitage.co.uk @pitzhanger

In 2024, Victoria Tinney established her own engineering practice after years of experience and recognition within the industry. Design-led and driven by a passion for sustainability, Victoria wanted a visual identity that reflected her approach — intelligent, elegant, and engineered with purpose. To mark a year in business, we worked with Victoria to create a new identity that positions the practice for its next stage of growth. Visually engineered to balance rigour with refinement, the identity is underpinned by its own structural integrity. The interlocking V and T form a geometric foundation — a motif that embodies precision, strength, and the design thinking at the heart of her work. #visualidentity #branddesign #engineeringdesign #architectureandengineering #graphicalhouse

Vita Sana Sol — a name that evokes life, health, and sunlight — is a new venture from Giorgio Fresh Co., North America’s leading mushroom producers. This new brand was created to introduce premium fresh produce across the United States — beginning with citrus, initially — with plans to expand into other categories over time. Designed to travel well, we developed a flexible identity system that balances clarity with warmth — vibrant, confident, and adaptable across packaging, transport, and communications. The full case study is now live on our website. #BrandIdentity #PackagingDesign #DesignSystem #FoodDesign #Produce #GraphicalHouse @giorgiofresh

A dramatic re-positioning of hair colour brand Colorissimo. The aim was to elevate perceptions, creating a sense of quality and sophistication without raising the price point — helping salons keep services affordable while still delivering a luxurious finish. @colorissimo_official

The Lost Shore We’ve just finished producing a short film for Oberlanders Architects, showcasing their three hub buildings at the heart of the new The Lost Shore Surf Resort near Edinburgh.​ Built into the contours of a former quarry, these buildings are designed to be practical, welcoming, and in tune with the landscape. Each has its own character—housing everything from surf school and spa to dining and events spaces—while together they frame the central cove and create a seamless experience for visitors.​ Expertly filmed by our long-time collaborator Mark Huskisson, the film captures not just the architecture, but the atmosphere of the place. The track used is ‘Allets’ from the Echo Department album by Daniel Ibbotson.

A quick run-through (until we get proper photos done!) of SERIOUS, a new 290-page book documenting the first ten years of Stallan-Brand’s work—an exploration of architecture’s role in shaping and reshaping post-industrial landscapes. While the story centres on Glasgow and its communities, its themes of destruction, reinvention, and reimagining resonate far beyond. Created in collaboration with the team at Stallan-Brand, the book is not just a document of practice but an artefact in its own right. With black paint-edged pages and a blind-debossed cover on rich black stock, its monolithic presence serves as both an object of intrigue and a reflection of the ideas within. It was a real pleasure to contribute to this thoughtful celebration of Stallan-Brand’s work. Huge thanks to Paul Stallan, Alistair Brand, Jessica Cowan, and Daniel Moffat at Stallan-Brand; Gordon Murray for his insightful introductory essay; Eithne Thomson for her meticulous proofing; the Fedrigoni Paper Samples Team for their invaluable help with production; Hussar Books for their expert printing; and to all the brilliant photographers and artists whose work is credited throughout the book. Not yet sure if Stallan-Brand are planning on selling the book—or how you might get your hands on a copy yet—but I’m sure they’ll let anyone interested know soon.
