Thompson Design Christmas Card 2007
December 2007
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Much fun was had in the making of this years company Christmas card. Our studio is in a building called the Old Stables, so we held our own little nativity! I was given the appropriate role of the star! Unfortunately this meant I had to be covered in gold face paint (a git to get off).

Great post work by RGB.

Roses Awards 07
October 2007
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a good night at the Roses awards this year where Thompson scooped 3 awards in total. A silver for the Robert Horne branding and associated material, Design
Chairmans Gold Award for the LCM Higher Education Prospectus and to top the night off good friend and colleague, Rob Brearley scooped designer of the year. I was also nominated for Emerging Designer of the Year.

“Designing promotional literature for the somewhat dry subject of academia can be a difficult and thankless task. Pandering to the notion of youthful, student taste can so easily become patronising, but the alternative can tend towards visual tedium. This rather nifty, pocket size volume manages to establish the right level of gravitas for the subject, yet with a vitality and spirit that is sure to endear itself to its audience.”
