Bio
Iain Smith
Tessa was O Street's project lead on the Fyne Ales rebrand in 2018, working closely with MD Jamie and myself over six months to develop new brand and product identities for our award-winning Scottish brewery. Tessa proved to be a huge asset for the project - hugely creative, working incredibly hard to meet our requirements while not afraid of challenging our expectations, and communicating brilliantly from initial concept work to final fine-tuning and execution. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Tessa to anyone looking for branding work - we couldn't be happier with the final result that has hugely helped our business grow over the past two years. Alongside the rest O Street team, she has a clear understanding of the UK beer industry and the importance of a branding within it.

I approached Tessa about her artwork at first however this developed into her aid as a design consultant and ultimately our Graphic Designer. We had a clear idea of what we wanted from our Branding package and Tessa responded to and added creative input to the original brief delivering excellent results and a strong, clear brand identity that we desired. I would highly recommend Tessa.
