Ercol is a prestige furniture brand, made in the UK. Rachel was assigned as Art Director for Ercol whilst working at award-winning Direct Marketing agency CMW.

She was responsible for art direction of photo shoots, and designed six-colour brochures, magazine advertising, direct mail and eDM's, working with a copy writer.

A key aspect was setting up photo shoots (scamping the shots, designing sets, selecting talent, commissioning photographers and stylists).

This was an integrated campaign including website takeover, bus shelter posters, and direct marketing (as shown).

Rachel sketched the photo brief in terms of content, composition and lighting.

The little girl, who was authentically photographed in a village in India, was wearing dark Kohl around her eyes to ward off evil spirits. This was the heart of the campaign. The concept was created in a Save the Children marketing workgroup.
