Anyone who knows Paul knows his love of tennis, so when Barclays came calling with a Wimbledon commission, there was no hesitation.

Working with MSQ Sport + Entertainment, Paul was asked to create a seamless repeat pattern for the Barclays Clubhouse at The Championships. The brief was to capture the unmistakable spirit of SW19, weaving together iconic Wimbledon details with Barclays' visual identity in a way that felt considered rather than branded. Grass courts, strawberries and cream, the famous umpire's chair and plenty of hidden details all found their way into the final piece.

Deservedly given with a VIP pass, Paul headed to Wimbledon to see the work in situ. We couldn't think of a more fitting commission for one of the sport's biggest fans.
