New Work added to portfolio
Just added some new work to my portfolio from, Visual Communications and Persuasion, modules undertaken whilst currently on my Masters in Advertising and Design at The University of Leeds.
BUAV Facebook page
Recently over Christmas I designed and created A Facebook/Fan page for the charity BUAV, a current client of Whitewater. Having only created facebook/fan pages for myself and also in experiments, I felt this was a real chance
Logos Using Negative Space
Following on from our lecture last Tuesday about colour, we were shown some great examples of logo design, such as the Fedex arrow and the Amazon A-Z smiley face. I thought I would share a few more that I’ve came across that make great use
Design, Innovation; Car Parking
In the New York Times online they have a great article on new car parking. This cool new innovate way takes up less space, is more eco friendly and saves time. They are popping up all over Europe and I reckon it wont be long until they hit our sunny island of England. Who could resist taking your car to be moved around and parked by robots its amazing!
Design; Paper cut outs
Granted from the title it doesn’t sound to exciting but just look at the final creation. The work is by an artist called Jen Stark who is a big drawing inspiration of mine. She produces these fascinating sculptures by layering hundreds of pieces of card together and then precisely cutting out individual sections and crafting them. Talk about creativity from paper to this, in my opinion its awsome. I guess you could call it modern day art or sculpture but the time and patients it must take to produce these... Read The Rest →
Design;Apple i phone
Using a laptop to work on the move is becoming almost as common as reading the paper on your daily commute. More than a quarter of us read email and get a head start on the working day, according to the future foundation. One in 10 commuters works on a laptop on the train and just as many email on their smartphone. Although they’re first and foremost mobile phones and we’ll always use them to make calls, the new breed of phones do much more. Once restricted to executives with... Read The Rest →
Design; Lexus GS450h
The Lexus S450 is the world’s first luxury car to go into production employing a petrol-electric hybrid powertrain. This is a fantastic idea of innovation especially with the ever rising cost of fuel prices, it apparantly cuts the price of fuel for the user by a quater if not more, The GS450h also emits 30 grams less of climate changing carbon-dioxide per kilometre, which is a massive kay point as global warming is becoming such a major issue in our current time. The Lexus isnt cheap coming in at approximatly... Read The Rest →
Design; Coke a Cola the can, bottle, slogan
The coke side of life!! I love illustration and I especially have always liked cokes, I’ve never yet seen a more interesting glass bottle, not only do you get coke out of it but just look at these adverts and see what else you can get from coke. The colours used are very specific and unique and proclaim mountains of emotions and feelings and also symbolisms.The far left one reminds me of the ‘beautiful game’ quite a few years ago with the old full colour strips and real raw passion...

Design; Finger Print
We look at art as design, buildings, sculptures, books, films, adverts! but why not ourselves? Take our finger print for example, it is unique to us, it is our own personal identification system, it is perfectly formed and shaped and is renewable, free and available for us to view 24/7 at our own pleasure. I cant think of any other design that matches that criteria. SO CAN OUR FINGERPRINTS BE CALLED DESIGN??? In my opinion yes, nature is classed as deign and also as a work of art in some...

Design; Persil Tablet (Unileaver)
When it comes to design innovation in detergents it is mainly scientific based good performance and practicality is generally still the most important thing to consumers when buying a washing detergent, thus companies need to design better detergents that produce cleaner results. So it is up to detergent companies to use design innovation to produce detergents that are practical, environmentally friendly and that will produce good results on lower temperatures thus being more eco friendly.Persil were the first company to produce a detergent that was in the form of a...
