Bringing a Festive Pop-Up to Life in Stratford
I was thrilled to be commissioned by not just a shop to transform their Christmas pop-up at the new London College of Fashion building. The challenge? Turning a vast, empty space into a joyful, high-end shopping destination.
Some of my initial sketches for the project
Drawing inspiration from classic haberdashery, I applied my signature illustration style to create a series of large-scale, hand-painted murals across the shop floor. I carefully curated a palette that felt uplifting but sophisticated—designed to complement the designers' capsule collections rather than compete with them. The result was a harmonious, creative atmosphere that received wonderful feedback from both the designers and the holiday shoppers!
