Meet the team

We are keen to meet you.
Gordon Beckett
Director
I had the privilege of being Design Editor at The Sunday Times for twenty six years, a demanding but always rewarding experience. Being part of the evolution of such a dominant and complex brand taught me many things, primarily the importance of telling your story simply and effectively, in terms of message, creativity and identifying the most efficient production model.
More recently I have concentrated on magazines, covering a broad spectrum of subjects and markets. I firmly believe that the experiences that have shaped my career will inspire our clients to reimagine their vision of future success.
Sarah Redman
Senior Designer
Media seemed the natural career route for me as I had spent time in the newsroom at The Mail on Sunday from the age of sixteen as the office junior. My journey around Fleet Street led me through The Telegraph commercial/marketing department, The Independent on Sunday and back to The Mail on Sunday where I became a senior designer for the print edition. I was seconded to the digital team, Mail Plus, where I worked on the development and design of their app for both Apple and Android platforms.
Digital design is a fast-moving and sometimes confusing area for a client. At Mauve we strive to cut through the complexities that hinder your ambitions and provide simple direct designs that offer the best possible experience for the user, which is, after all what good design is all about.
Sarah Bell
Graphic Designer
Originally from Newcastle, I started my career working in Scotland for the Daily Record, later to become Art Director for the Sunday Mail designing a range of magazines as well as daily newspaper production. In 2006, in search of a warmer climate and a fresh challenge I moved south to join the Mail on Sunday where I became an integral part of the design team.
More recently I have been freelancing as a graphic designer on a wide variety of projects including; branding, brochures and newsletters. Whilst working with Mauve Studios I have expanded my design skills to include web design.
