Hello, thanks for stopping by.
I'm Denise, and I've been working as a designer for over 15 years.
I'm currently a Creative Director at BERG London, and for the four years prior to that, I was the Creative Director for the award winning start up moo.com, creating and defining the brand through digital and physical products.
Like most designers, I've been lucky enough to freelance for a nice group of clients over the years, a list of which can be seen on the right. I've also spoken at conferences and written for a few magazines.
But this site isn't about that. It's really just a place to put some of the other things I do—like illustration. So take a look around and if there's something you think I could help you with, feel free to get in touch

PERSONAL PROJECTS
b3ta.com
B3ta is an online creative community. Launched in 2002, it was co-founded by myself, Cal Henderson and Rob Manuel. B3ta has a weekly newsletter (subscribers numbering over 100,000) and an active messageboard. It's not for the faint-hearted.
Illustration (just for fun)
While I love my day job, sometimes it's nice to draw just for the hell of it. This is a small collection of work created for no other reason than the joy of drawing. The plan is to add to it from time to time, so lets see how that works out...
CityCreator
CityCreator was a collaboration with Cal Henderson. Like b3ta, it launched in 2002 and was nominated for various awards. It's also been featured in newspapers and magazines around the world. (This site is archived now.)
