DESIGN SHOULD MAKE COMPLEX THINGS FEEL SIMPLE

Neil Catchpole

I’m Neil, the designer behind NellyB Creative.

Based in Coventry, I work with outdoor and product-led brands to create catalogues, print systems, packaging, and digital assets that bring clarity to complex product ranges.

MOST DESIGN PROBLEMS AREN’T CAUSED BY A LACK OF INFORMATION.

They’re caused by a lack of structure.

I’m interested in how content flows, how products are grouped, and how layout can guide someone through information without overwhelming them.

Whether it’s a catalogue, packaging system, or digital campaign, the goal is always the same:
to create work that feels clear, considered, and easy to engage with.

20+ YEARS

IN PRINT & DIGITAL DESIGN

Working across:

Catalogues
Brochures
Packaging
Exhibition graphics
Digital campaigns

Mostly for brands with large product ranges, technical information, and a need for print & digital.

OUTSIDE THE STUDIO

I spend a lot of time riding mountain bikes, walking, and taking photographs.

A lot of my work is influenced by those environments:

Materials
Weather
Texture
Simplicity

I prefer collaborative projects with

STRAIGHTFORWARD COMMUNICATION

clear thinking, and space to solve problems properly.

No unneccessary process.
No inflated language.
Just thoughtful design that works hard for the brands using it.

LESS CLUTTER.
MORE CLARITY.

Got a catalogue, product range, or print project that needs creating?
