Katie smith is an illustrator and recent graduate of communication design at the glasgow school of art. As the inaugural winner of the collins debden graduate award, she has collaborated with collins to produce a series of designs, incorporating her playful, energetic and colourful style. Through the use of both analogue and digital techniques, she uses bright colours to promote a positive attitude and brighten up your day. Through the use of her signature style, katie has depicted retro objects such as the 50s floating armchair, the 60s flowerpot table lamp and the 80s wall hung kitchen phone, known for its long curly cords. Each diary is designed such that a part of the object graphic continues to the back cover of the diary. This whimsical and playful design detail suits the simple yet bold graphic, especially with the choice of retro, warm tones which make the objects pop. . 3 year calendars .
