For thirty years, Denis was partner in a small London design consultancy specialising in technical and marketing material for the insurance, pharmaceutical and shipping industries.

Now retired, he divides his time between London, where he is a father and grandfather, and Tallinn, where he is a house-husband.

He also spends a lot of time in shopping centres looking for exciting new ideas.
