Remarkable Practice

April 10, 2025

Strategy Book Design for Ambitious Accountants.

Remarkable Practice is a business consultancy specialising in assisting ambitious accountancy firms to enhance their operations and achieve significant growth.

The client wanted to create a book that is both a practical tool and an inspiring guide—designed to help firm leaders rethink how they grow their teams, serve clients, and build better businesses.

Despite the subject matter being analytical by nature, the book carries a warm, human tone, echoing Remarkable Practice’s brand philosophy of “Humanise the Numbers.” The result is a high-impact publication that’s as enjoyable to flick through as it is valuable to implement.

The square format was intentional to give the book a distinctive physical presence – setting it apart from traditional business materials that are generally A4 portrait. This gives a more approachable, modern, and design-led feel, which aligns perfectly with the book’s mission to challenge outdated thinking in the accountancy space.

The 200-page book takes a modern, energetic visual style to tackle what could otherwise be dense or dry content. Its goal—to reframe strategic thinking in accountancy—is successfully echoed in the design through a vibrant colour palette, bold typography, playful yet professional illustrations, and a clear grid-based layout system.

Branding Design for BNJC – Brighton & Hove Jewish Community

BNJC – Brighton & Hove Jewish Community

August 16, 2023

BNJC exists to support the Jewish Community in Brighton & Hove and to provide outstanding facilities and events for the entire city to enjoy. It is a vibrant, cross-communal hub for Jewish arts, culture, food, family programming, learning and much more. Situated at 29-31 New Church Road, the site includes a kosher restaurant and bakery, co-working space, synagogue and a nursery.

The client found the previous brand and assets complicated and overly busy, which were hard to use in execution. Because of this there was a lack of brand consistency across their marketing and social media. The brief was to explore a new typeface for their brand logo, an updated colour palette, and new graphic assets.

I created a modern and friendly logo design to reflect the vibrant personality of BNJC and it’s offering to the local community. This included a new set of graphic assets to be used across their website, marketing and social media for brand recognition and consistency.

The project extended to working across the other businesses, including branding and menu designs for the restaurant Novellino, and branding and social media templates for Shoresh Nursery.

“We have loved working Charlotte on developing our brand identity. She made the entire process of our brand re-fresh and subsequent creation of sub-brands, printed designs, stationery and everything in between – easy and enjoyable. Her creativity, proactiveness and efficiency has made our visual identity the success it is, and we look forward to continue working with Charlotte in the future!”
Jasmin Aziz, Head of Marketing & Communications at BNJC

Branding and Business Card Design for Brighton-based PR agency Midnight

Midnight

November 2, 2020

Midnight are an award-winning PR agency based in Brighton.

They approached me to rebrand their business and focus on being less corporate and more contemporary boutique agency. They felt their previous brand logo lacked creative flair and personality.

The chosen logo design includes a speech bubble graphic which is an iconic and universal symbol for communication. The speech bubble shape can be used as a graphic device for holding text and images, and can be used across the brand elements to build a strong personality. The typeface is contemporary and uppercase gives a feeling of authority. The word and graphic intersecting creates interest, along with a bold colour palette.

The business card design needed to more impact, so we decided on a bright white premium paper stock to set off the cyan and magenta colour palette. The speech bubble was slightly debossed with a metallic magenta foil, which changes when it catches the light. On the reverse we went for a linear texture to give a tactile feel and to create a contrast with the front.

“We really enjoyed working with Charlotte during the process of our re-brand. From the very beginning, we felt that she understood the personality we wanted to portray in every aspect of the material she designed for us. We would always be happy to recommend her as a designer”.

Kathaa

January 4, 2019

One of the most rewarding projects I’ve had the pleasure to work on has been a new social enterprise for the a global charity who are changing the lives of thousands of young girls in Nepal.

I worked closely with Hannah, NYFs CEO, on coming up with a name for the enterprise – ‘Kathaa’ which means ‘story’ in Nepalese.

The men’s and women’s Down Jackets have been made by Nepal’s freed Kamalari women (domestic child slaves). The Nepal Youth Foundation has trained these girls in commercial tailoring enabling them to take control of their lives and tell their own stories through the clothes they make. 100% of profits go back to NYF UK and into helping Nepal’s most vulnerable children.

Every girl at Kathaa has an empowering story to tell and everything they make is an expression of that story. This was the what led to the name Kathaa, which means story in Nepalese. This also informed the strapline – Every Stitch Tells a Story.

“I originally got in touch with Charlotte to help us turn an idea into something tangible and in doing so, create a brand identity.  She instinctively understood what was needed as her conceptualisation was spot on. She is creative, committed, affable and proved herself a real asset to the team.  I would go as far to say that she was invaluable to our work.

We have worked on other projects since and it is always effortless: Charlotte has enough business acumen to quickly grasp any concept, and then the skill to turn it into stunning visuals.

Her professionalism and abilities are of the highest standard. She is a real talent and we genuinely enjoy working with her – I couldn’t recommend her enough.”
