The short version

I am a graphic designer and developer based in Lusaka. I design brand identities, print and editorial work, billboards, booths and exhibition stands for companies, government institutions, churches and small businesses.

I care about clarity and craft, and about work that does its job in the real world: a billboard read at driving speed, a booth that has to stop someone on a busy street, a handbook someone actually reads to the end.

I also build software. I designed and built DRAMAC, the business operating system agencies run for the businesses they serve, and I run Dramac Marketing Agency, which builds websites and business software for Zambian businesses.

When I take on a project, I own it from the first sketch to the printer or the launch.

How I work

  1. 01

    Listen

    I start with what the work has to do, who has to read it and where they will meet it.

  2. 02

    Concept

    One clear idea, sketched and tested before anything is polished.

  3. 03

    Craft

    Type, colour, grid and detail, worked until nothing is left to chance.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Print-ready files, a launched website or a live product, prepared properly.
