The Francis Crick Institute
Magazine Design & Art Direction – The Crick

Created a flagship magazine designed to make complex biomedical research accessible, engaging, and human. I led creative direction, building a concept around discovery – using a mysterious DNA figure motif, layered imagery, and custom photography to evoke curiosity and the unknown, while retaining clarity and scientific integrity. The result balanced depth with visual impact, engaging philanthropists and partners, and earning a shortlist for Best Use of Imagery at the International CMA Awards.
