Introducing Chris, the man of many nicknames, our founder, and chief branding guru here at Red Kite. To Brits, he goes by Haggis, while Aussies affectionately refer to him as Haggo. And for those who knew him from his time as a ski-bum in Canada, he’s known simply as Macca. It’s a wonder he’s able to keep up with all his different personas!
Chris has a passion for travel, having completed three gap years and visited over 40 countries across multiple continents. He’s always on the lookout for inspiration to infuse into his design process, but when he’s not busy creating stunning visual identities for our clients, you’ll find him exploring the great outdoors, spotting wildlife, running himself ragged on a soccer pitch or indulging in extreme sports.
Born in Scotland, Chris moved to England at the age of 13 before eventually settling in Australia with his wife (whom he met during his ski season in Canada) in 2016. It was his passion for brand identity design that led him to start Red Kite in 2019. Since then, he’s been pushing his boundaries and raising the bar for his design abilities and expertise he can offer our clients. So, if you’re ever in need of a branding superhero, you know who to call. Just don’t be surprised if he answers to a different name!
