Case Study

Creative director for a UK publisher's full rebrand.

New brand, new website, new covers, and a catalog rebuilt on deadline.

The challenge

The company needed a complete visual reset and someone to run it. Not a freelancer handing over files, but a creative director owning the whole picture: the brand identity, the website, every cover, and a social presence that looked like a real publisher.

Then the deadline compressed. Seventeen books needed designing in under a month.

Scope

What we did

The full creative-director mandate: brand, books, web, and promotion, run as one program.

Complete brand redesign, from identity to visual language
Book covers and interiors across fiction, poetry, and children's books
Company website design, including backend work
Social media growth, content, and art direction
Book fair promotional designs for print and display
Book design at volume across the full engagement, including a final push of 17 books designed and delivered in under a month
The Result

A full catalog. One look. On deadline.

The engagement went far beyond a single sprint: a new brand, a new website, a social presence, and book design across the catalog, all carrying one consistent visual identity. The final push alone delivered 17 books in under a month. That is what it looks like when one creative director runs the whole program instead of just designing the next cover.
