Deer Shed FestivalFreelance design work
Paid freelance design work for Deer Shed Festival 2024. 

Deer Shed is a family-friendly music festival in North Yorkshire, for which I was hired to create a range of merchandise to their 2024 theme of Retro Futures. For this, I came up with the slogan ‘I have seen the future’, which they chose to use additionally on their festival poster. The range included a screen-print organic tea-towel, a unisex beanie (in 2 colourways), a kid’s hoodie (2 colourways also), an adult hoodie, and the kid’s t-shirt. The client was extremely happy with the work, and I have been invited to continue this creative relationship with the company.

The programme designed by Graham Piling of ‘Army of Cats’. An example where my slogan - I have seen the future - was used across the visual identity of the festival.



The merchandise designs were printed in collaboration with Joe Duffield of White Label Clothing, and I visited his screen printing studio in Brighton to assist with the process.
