Kia ora. Here’s a handful of fairly recent bits of work.

Logo for Virtual Tourism project

September 21, 2025

The team of He Karapitipitinga Mariko at University of Otago are working on innovative ways of sharing experiences of Aotearoa with real and virtual tourists. I helped the guys come up with a new logo, which we think nicely reflects some kind of overlap between nature and technology.

Pedals Dunedin

March 16, 2025

Pedals is a new cool cycle courier operation in our wee city. Look out for the guys zipping about town on their sweet cargo bikes, providing a great service and helping reduce traffic. It was a privilege to help Liam with the branding and design. Update: I worked with Liam to sweeten up the design of the website, and helped a bit with the UX of the new booking system. Special thanks to Josh J from Reframed for such a great job with the photos and video.

Share Collective

September 16, 2023

I was lucky to be asked to come up with a logo for new philanthropic startup Share Collective. Lani and the team are working with the great idea about growing equity from donated company shares, and investing money back into worthy community projects.


The picture mark is a stylised cone of a kauri tree, those reproductive nuggets of the forest giant, which we felt represented strength and growth and patience.
