Ruth Alderton Design

Worked closely with The Deli team to create illustration assets for branding and merchandise, alongside a large-scale window installation for their café in Hylands Park, Chelmsford.

Inspired by the beautiful chaos of coffee shop culture, the final piece creates a playful focal point within the courtyard setting, completed ahead of Mother’s Day and Hylands Estate Day to maximise footfall.

Created a range of event stationery with the creative team at DELA for their Besties Brunch in partnership with Gordon’s Pink Gin, hosted by Maya Jama.

This included drinks and food menus, custom posters for activities at Soho Hotel, plus promotional assets such as cocktail toppers and mirror vinyls.

Commissioned by the Tuck Shop team over the past two years to create seasonal window displays designed to draw customers in and highlight new products.

Each design celebrates key moments in the calendar, from Christmas to Halloween, with illustrations drawn directly onto the window to create intrigue and bring attention to what’s inside.

In October I took part in one of the Salad Days Markets in Battersea, bringing along a mix of my prints, illustrations, and wedding stationery. It was so nice to meet people in person, chat about my work, and see everything come to life in such a fun, buzzing market vibe.
