The Stories Behind My Brand

Working in collaboration with The Big Light, I have produced a series of beautiful audio productions using Activate Audio. They are designed to take you behind the pieces that you can purchase from my site, to help you see them through my eyes.

Listen to them below...

Clockwork Orange

Travel back in time to the early 1990s and join me on a journey aboard the old Glasgow Subway. Immerse yourself in a journey as I talk you through the ideas that went on to become the iconic Clockwork Orange branding.

Swallows

The story behind my collaboration with Ally from Ocean Plastic Pots. Find out how an elderly gentleman with hand tattoos, my own life experiences, and an item I found at a village fete fit into the tale of these iconic Swallows.

My Founder's Story

My origin story! Find out what made me... me. From my early days growing up in London and being encouraged by my free-spirited mum, to my first job and ending up as an accidental influencer (of the year!).

Olympic

The story of my favourite Dazzle Ship. The Big Light's immersive Activate Audio takes us back in time to the deck of the RMS Olympic, a ship with an incredible history that rivals that of its tragic line-mate, the Titanic. Bedecked in its iconic dazzle camouflage, designed by Norman Wilkinson, we find out about its extraordinary First World War story.

Malin

I've always had a connection to the BBC Shipping Forecast, and in this piece - which explores the inspiration behind my Malin collection - I get the chance to read it for real! How did I do?

Forth

The historical stories from the Firth of Forth are many and varied, but this one about the Blessing of Burntisland takes us from the shores of Leith to the Pendle Witch Trials and on into the English Civil War. 

Lundy

The fascinating story of Lundy, a tiny island with a very special history. Come with me as I tell you the tale of Martin Coles Harman, a 1920s banker with a big dream of his own private fiefdom.

Now you know the stories behind my brand, have a browse for the piece that speaks to you!
