The Breakfast Club is one of the coolest café hangouts around London and the south of England. I have been lucky enough to be asked to work with them on a few projects as a designer and illustrator.
Lightbox design
I was asked to create a lightbox for the newest caffs opening in Oxford. Inspired by Ferris Bueller's Day Off I wanted to design a nostalgia-retro-clock-lightbox-centrepiece.
