The idea behind this guerilla advertising campaign was to intercept pedestrians as they press the button on traffic lights. We hijacked space on the poles by attaching a self-adhesive label to them and used the lights as a visual aid to validate our message.
For the last 10 or so years, my routine as soon as I arrive at the office, begins with a large mug of coffee and a scan through the latest news on Netdiver.
Netdiver is a fantastic design and digital culture magazine devoted to empowering and stimulating creativity from all over the world. After all these years, I still get a kick out of seeing our stuff featured there.

Bulldog designed this laser cut, stainless steel and wood, commemorative plaque for Calleja after they expressed a wish to steer away from the stereotypical brass option, in favour of something a little more contemporary.
The plaque will be unveiled by Hon. Minister Tonio Fenech and Birkirkara Mayor – Michael Fenech Adami on the 4th of July, at the opening of the new Calleja showrooms.
It is common knowledge that the right lighting can make small spaces seem larger. These poster executions reinforce this fact via a trompe l’oeil effect that creates false depth between the glass of the billboard and the poster. This is used to wittily demonstrate one of the product benefits and serves as a backdrop for displaying the light fixtures.
This illustration was for a project I was invited to take part in, designed to raise funds for victims of the Haiti disaster. The concept of the project was to have participants create art carrying messages of hope to the people of Haiti. These would then be auctioned off to raise money in support of designated aid organisations.
This illustration was taken from an animated sequence we recently created, announcing a brand transfer for Maltese electrical supplies firm – Calleja. We reworked it in vector format to allow enlargement without any loss of quality. The 3 by 5 metre panel is backlit using around 40, T16 fluorescent lamps and sits opposite way-finding signage that directs traffic to Calleja’s 2nd floor, lighting showroom.

Financial consultant – Marc Vella Bonanno asked Bulldog to craft a graphic symbol and business stationery that is authoritative and reassuring, with a wide appeal. The symbol is a monogram formed by Marc’s initials and is supported by a spirograph pattern that echoes the kind of graphics associated with bank notes. A restrained design, foil blocking and premium paper stock all add to the elegance and refinement of this stationery.
