Lumpy Lemon

lumpy lemon has worked with crisis action since it was founded in 2005. we developed an initial website for them (crisisaction.org), then as their organisation grew, we developed this into a multi-lingual site. we also designed their annual reports. recently, we designed (at very short notice!) protectdrc.org which together with a national media campaign put pressure on the government to act in eastern congo.

in 2008, claire and andy james swapped the rat race in london to restore a beautiful ‘trulli’ farmhouse in puglia in southern italy to be their home and an accommodation business. rusticpuglia.com allows them to easily manage all their prices, enquiries and bookings online, as well as being able to update any page of the website and write a regular blog to keep everyone up-to-date with their progress.

beautiful, fairly-traded jewellery photographed for oxfam’s catalogues and advertisements. our studio shots were then also used in pre-christmas publicity, in-store displays and other promotional materials.

for over two years we have supported this amazing woman and her incredible dream to row solo across the indian ocean. we provided web design (sarahouten.co.uk), portrait photography and publicity materials such as business cards and sponsorship packs. we hope to be on the beach to greet her when she arrives in mauritius at the end of her journey! the website is very active and dynamic to encourage visitors to return regularly: sarah constantly blogs, adds new photos to the gallery and keeps a record of her fundraising achievements.

for oak tree press we provided photography and design for the “first chapter series” - beautiful limited collectors’ editions of signed hardback books. we designed and laid out the j.m. koetzee series, as well as designing a number of magazine advertisements.

the main cultural agency for oxfordshire commissioned lumpy lemon to produce a wide range of materials for the “100 years of oxfordshire” celebrations. over a period of 10 months we produced a series of programmes, leaflets, books, maps and posters promoting many special events.

fashion photography for sestra moja, the design label of antonia widdowson from oxford. a magical play between textures and shapes brought to life by the beauty of our model mariana magnavita.

galeria brasil is a funky (and ethical!) brazilian gallery in east oxford. over five years we have created many promotional materials for them: advertisements, christmas cards, leaflets, invitations and postcards. we recently exhibited the first part of a long-term photography project “the magic of brasil”, based on the symbols and icons found in popular brazilian art.
