Ok so here’s what this blog will be for: Updates on work, snippets of projects I’m working on, useful links, resources and tutorials, design related chatter. So to start: I’m currently working on two websites, the first has been going on for a while now but hasn’t seen much attention recently. It’s a site for Pneuma youth events, which are held at Carshalton Beeches Baptist Church. The address, pneumaevents.com, currently displays a holding page but the final site, which is built on Wordpress, should be up within the next month. This is the same ‘brand’ for which I have already designed a range of promotional printed materials over the past couple of years, which can be seen here, here and here.
The second site is a complete redesign of the site for Brunel University sailing club. Currently located at brunelsailing.com and running on MS Office Live (fail), the new website is also built on Wordpress and boasts a high degree of functionality due to an extensive use of plugins. This site is almost ready for deployment and will be up (at the same URL) within 1-2 weeks.
After months of very little attention and pitifully few updates, I’ve finally got my act together and given this site a bit of a makeover. So what’s new? Well, the overall layout has changed quite drastically, though I have kept certain key design features the same (such as the weird green sparkly background thing). I’ve added this blog section (all the cool kids were doing it), a nifty slideshow for the front page, and because the whole thing hooks into Wordpress I can take advantage of cool features like RSS.
I’ve added some new work too, I recommend you take a look at the flash game I recently finished entitled ‘Martian Green’, as well as a website design for young people interested in politics called ‘We Do Politics’ that I created for a university assignment.
I’m still ironing out a few kinks and bugs, but please have a poke around and see what you think.
