Samantha Garbutt

I am a final year BA (Hons) Fashion Communication and Promotion student. Growing up as a third culture kid has instilled in me the ability to adapt to diverse people and environments, nurturing a deep cultural understanding and influencing my practice in creative direction. Every brief I undertake aims to evoke emotions through a multitude of mediums. With a background in art, experimentation feels organic to me. I was very fortunate to apply this skillset and develop my Adobe skills in industry during my placement year in Dubai, designing and producing a line of nautical sports bags. This cemented my passions within the health and wellness space upon my return to university. By identifying a lack of healthy on the go fast-food options, I created a mock-up of a Smoothie Café and Drive Thru for an existing juice brand, reimagining the health and wellness space in a fun, fresh and authentic way.
