I designed the 12 screen icons for BP's new Wild Bean Café Express coffee machines. 

Working with TBWA Manchester, these were drawn in digital chalk using Kyle Webster's chalks on a Wacom Intuos at almost-life-size, and integrated into the new machines this summer. See a little video of the machine in use here.

We got the chance to stop for coffee and use one of the new machines as we drove to the port of Dover last week!

Read the full story of how and why we developed the Original Solid Chocolate Egg project on my blog - from initial idea to product on sale in under 4 weeks.  Every year we re-design the packaging around a central core of assets - our sturdy logo, and lots of ink! solidegg.co.uk The packaging is hand-finished and personalised every year too - a challenge, as quantities have grown dramatically year on year.

For Ernst & Young Germany - a Start-up notebook with my drawings inside. Although I’m well past the ‘start-up’ phase I’ll be using this book in the way it was intended; it’s a noice fat hardback with yellow cloth spine and blank pages - lovely! @bareps @ciablog
