He executes fine design bindings but also prints and illustrates his own works. His practice focuses on exploring the sculptural nature of the book, different formats and use of materials.

He is hugely respected and was elected Fellow of Designer Bookbinders in 2001, and is a member of The Society of Bookbinders and The Tokyo Bookbinding Club. He teaches and lectures extensively in the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA.|
