Freelance Illustrator London
Illustration of Leeds Town Hall. I was approached by the guys at Glug Leeds, to design a new illustration for their brochure. They wanted a simple hand-drawn illustrative style for the front cover. I used a combination of different simple shapes and patterns to create the illustration.
The project required an illustration that felt creative, approachable and visually striking while remaining simple enough to work effectively across print applications.
Using a combination of geometric shapes, textures and hand-drawn elements, I developed an illustration of Leeds Town Hall that reflected the creative nature of the Glug community while providing a memorable visual focal point for the publication.
The result was a bold and engaging illustration that helped bring personality to the brochure while celebrating one of Leeds’ most recognisable landmarks.
