Book design for The Walther Collection’s Suite 718. Working closely with Artur Walther, Troy Wong and Simon Hunegs, this book was over a year in the making.

Located in Suite 718 of the landmark West Chelsea Arts Building was The Walther Collection’s project space (2011-2021). It became an incubator for ideas, promoting sustained inquiry into the collection’s three main areas of focus: African, Asian and vernacular photography, expanding the history of the medium worldwide. Recording the space’s extensive activities, this book reflects on the significance of The Walther Collection and its lasting impact on the landscape of contemporary art in New York.

Artist-potter Hylton Nel has been making his unique ceramics since the 1960s. Celebrating and gently subverting pottery archetypes across eras and civilisations, Nel’s charming, witty and joyful practice is unapologetically curious and quirky, often with a wistful lamentation for the human condition. This third monograph presents a selection of works from the past fifty years, from poetic text-covered vases and portrait plates to his playful feline take on Staffordshire pottery. An introduction by Kim Jones OBE and a text by Tamar Garb are accompanied by short extracts of the artist’s own words.

Book design for the annual exhibition at El Espacio 23, Miami, Florida. With figuration as this year’s theme, the cover features a graphic of a figure based on a photograph in the exhibition. I hand-wrote the lettering for the cover and for titles and names throughout the book, to lend a feeling of warmth, humanity and originality to the design.
2024, published by El Espacio 23 (USA) / 312 pages / Page size 220 x 270mm / Printed 5 colours throughout (CMYK + Pantone) / Hard cover silkscreened in 2 spot colours on Wibalin Natural 553 Dark Green / Endpapers unprinted, Wibalin Natural 553 Dark Green


Tyler Hobbs’ debut monograph is one of the first to focus on the work of a generative artist. Contextualising his art from 2018-23, Order/Disorder includes works from Hobbs’ solo exhibitions at Unit, London, and Pace, New York, in 2023.

Structured around the concept of dualities, the book explores Hobbs’ systematic approaches to art-making, the creative relationship between man and machine, computer-led aesthetics and the interplay of repetition and emergence across long-form generative projects.

A premium Collector’s edition includes a limited print of an Artist Proof and an NFC chip inserted into cover for registration on the blockchain. Find out more on Unit’s website here.
