Who’s New(ish) Around Here

We’re having a great, busy year at O Street and as a result, our team has grown a little. Let’s get you up to speed on who’s new(ish) around here! Meet our new staff—Becky and Bea, the latest designers to join our Glasgow Studio and our new Studio Manager, Susan.

A proper introduction needs some O Street portraits. So, we dusted off our yellow office chair, gave our good pal Peter Dibdin a shout and then crossed our fingers for a break from the seemingly endless October rain. Luck was on our side, blue skies appeared and our neighbourhood mini-shoot was a go!

O Street Becky

Becky fine-tuned her skills at the Glasgow School of Art and KADK, bringing her digital expertise to O Street. A coding and interactive text wizard, she’s been working on some fantastic projects for our US clients since the end of last year. A general provider of chill vibes with a knack for choosing the perfect tunes suited to the studio mood.

O Street Beatrice

Another GSA graduate, Beatrice, joined the studio a few months ago. She’s produced some incredible, unique work since joining us, specialising in art direction, brand identity and digital design. She is the Queen Bea of charity shop scavenging, often unearthing some of the best treasures on her lunch break!

O Street Susan

With an extensive background in fashion retail, visual merchandising and small business marketing, Susan recently joined the team to keep everything ticking along smoothly. As well as keeping things organised, she brings her social media skills to spread the good word on O Street. A calming presence in the studio, always ready to talk books, cats and outfits!

Love is all O-round.

This month we had two very good reasons to clear the decks and order too much pizza. Neil O’s retirement and David’s 50th lap around the sun. Two milestones. Both worth marking properly. The date landed just after Valentine’s Day,...

Change Starts Small

Beth and the very lovely folk at INTL invited me to sit on a panel last night. The topic: “What the F**K is going on in the Scottish Design Industry?” A bit of a foreboding question, eh? And one which...
