WINE LABELS ON 3D BOTTLES
I’ve been working on wine labels for the WSET course. Initially, the plan was to apply the flat labels as an image on the course, but we took it a step further by placing them on 3D bottles. This adds a more realistic experience for the students taking the wine qualification.
BEER LABELS ON 3D CANS
Recently I have been working on beer labels for WSET course. Initially the plan was to place the labels on beer bottles but we went one step ahead and placed them on cans too to create a more realistic experience for the students undertaking beer qualification.

The ‘You Can Be’ Development programme:
Asda are launching a new development pathway for colleagues which will help them to get ready for their next role within the business.

Wine Labels
I am so proud of these wine labels I created for WSET (Wine and Spirit Education Trust) where I currently work. It has been an exciting journey getting to know different vinyards, the style of each wine. While designing these I had to keep in mind the colour of the wine so the label stands out; the origin so the design reflects that and also the intensity and flavours of the wine to create an appropriate design, for example delicate Rose Belle wine has delicate rose background with shades of pink to reflect the delicacy of the rose wine. These labels are now being used on the online wine courses WSET provides.
These wine labels are only for educational purpose and are not intended for commercial use.
E-Learning Design
The video below is an example of e-learning interface on mobile app learning about rice sorting in Buhler where I am recently working. This interface was created using Articulate 360, Storyline, GOMO and Onpoint as LMS. Other designing software used were Adobe Photoshop and After effects. This app was created for sales training internal Buhler employees. This is being used as a Blueprint at corporate level.
PRINTS
Below are few pages that I designed for magazines and adverts that I created for Channel Edge Media and RGB Direct. They include designs printed for magazines such as Grand Design, Good Homes, West Essex Life, Elite Franchise, Elite Business etc and Newspapers like Guardian, Yellow Advertiser and Enquirer. Also, other print based artwork for example Billboards, Lamp posts and A1 posters.
