The cover this month was inspired by Dubliners adapting and struggling with the ‘new normal’ of living in quarantine. Many are working from home or are unemployed and stuck in their apartments. Many rentals, although over-priced, are cramped and too small for the number of people living there. The entire country is struggling with the various stages of lockdown, but it‘s especially difficult for those in cramped, substandard living conditions.
I’m a freelance illustrator and graphic designer based in Dublin. I am particularly interested in all aspects of design, the environment and social issues. I spend most of my spare time drawing, taking photographs, gardening, compulsively buying esoteric books online and taking selfies in new clothes I’ve bought, which I intend on returning the following week.

"Worried you're not getting enough protein? Never fear, we have you covered."
"Space for kids, just like affordable housing and culture, should be a fundamental part of Dublin’s planning."
"The idea for this cover was an ode to the post workers, couriers and delivery drivers who just (literally) carried the Christmas season on their backs."
"I wanted the Luas to look like Rudolph but also like it was a sleigh in the snow to add to the Christmas vibe."
