Garry Calderwood — Manchester, UK

What is your most memorable promotional design? “We worked on a mailer for Tekken back in the day – the team at 999 created this beautiful book that looked like something out of a martial-arts temple. In it were the game discs, a set of baoding balls (to improve your manual dexterity for playing the game) and these were wrapped in a scroll with all the moves mapped out.”

Calderwood has been designing for more than 18 years at agencies, large and small, in Glasgow and Manchester. He says that the different cultures and approaches he has encountered along the way have broadened his perspectives on life, creativity and whisky. “These days,” he adds, “I get to apply all that experience at Love in Manchester, where I help create compelling ideas for all sorts of global brands.”
