Abby Webster
I'm Abby, a graphic designer with a passion for producing exciting design solutions that are engaging and multifaceted.
About
A huge element within my work is playfulness. As important as the functionality of a piece of design is, what inspires me is creating something that is an experience for the user, and I find myself repeatedly making work that is tactile and has a tangible element. I am drawn to work that is vibrant and exciting and as a problem solver I utilise dynamic ways to elevate pieces from purely functional design to things with interesting formats, layers and textures that connect with an audience.
Mither Tongue
A selection of spreads from 'Mither Tongue'.
‘Mither Tongue’ is a response to the ISTD ‘Linguistic Hybridity’ brief. The publication explores various aspects of the Doric dialect spoken in the north east of Scotland through both a historical / fact based and personal lens.
Onnit
Onnit is a cider brand created in response to the 2024 Hatch Brief. The visual identity and story of the brand is a verging on satirical nod to Scotland's youth drinking culture, and uses vivid abstracted imagery and playful hand drawn typographic elements to encourage a more mature audience to re-engage and reminisce on their nostalgic memories of adolescence and sweet fruity cider.
A short tour of the Onnit Website, showcasing additional promotional motion graphic assets and imagery.
System
'System' is a publication that was written, designed and published as part of the final year Communication Futures Dissertation module. It explores Acid House Music and Rave Culture's dynamic links with British Politics in the past and in a modern context.
