Purdys Chocolatier — Fundraising Catalogues (2022 - Present)

SUMMARY /

Led art direction and editorial design for Purdys Chocolatier’s seasonal fundraising catalogues, produced biannually in Spring and Winter. Each season began with strategic reviews of previous campaigns and the development of a refreshed creative direction, encompassing both design and photography, presented to executive stakeholders for approval. Over recent years, this initiative has evolved into a more refined, premium presentation, elevating both the catalogue’s design and the brand’s fundraising program as a whole.
