This blog features some of my projects, illustrations, photographs and thoughts. Enjoy!
Coldwell Banker is a world wide known real estate company with a wide range of property markets such as Residential Homes, Apartments, Land, Holiday Homes as well as Industrial, Commercial and Retail. Their Irish branch, Coldwell Banker Ireland, contacted 4pm to create a new portal for their head office where the users could find all information about the Irish agencies and properties available.
It’s great to see how much the use of textures in websites has increased in the past months. They are an effective way of adding flavour and fun to the design. I love taking pictures of walls, bricks, or surfaces around the city and analyse the pattern that they bring to the whole subject. In this article I’ll share some tips that I try to put in practise when photographing textures.
From all the different fields of print design the one that always gets my attention is the beer bottles design. It’s a saturated market and all brands want to attract their consumers. To stand out from other packages in the shelf, the design has to be very creative. Here I’ve made a selection of 15 beer bottles, labels and packaging design that will inspire you to design outside the box and make your work stand out. Cheers!
In this project I was requested to not only redesign their current page but to come up with 2 animated banner ads, which will be featured on the main portals in Ireland. The company, iWord is specialized in mobile messaging solution and has been on the market since 2004.
Have you ever wondered if your design process is the right one for your projects? Have you ever thought that maybe there’s a step missing or maybe a specific phase that needs more emphasis on? After doing some research on the subject I found out that Elliot Jay Stocks, a very cool designer from the UK, had recently written a book about this called Sexy Web Design published by Sitepoint, a cool Aussie based book publisher and web & design reference website.
