Form and function are the two principles of design. If you read this and noticed that form comes before function, let me assure you that's only because they're listed alphabetically. In practice it should be the other way around. Everything made by human hands has been, in some way, designed and you can always tell when it's been designed badly: when form interferes with function.
I understand how people consume information and most are too sophisticated to be impressed by bells and whistles. They want results. They want things to work well, look good and not keep them waiting.
I do elegant, simple and above all, functional. If that's what you're after, send me a note.
I specialize in crafting custom web apps. We're not talking about installing some cheap theme onto a copy of Wordpress with the end result that your website looks just like about a thousand others. We're talking about built-from-the-ground-up custom sites to meet your specific needs using semantic, valid HTML5, CSS3, jquery and a powerful database driven backend that will work the way you do and function exactly as you need it to. A CMS that will allow you to manage your own web presence with such ease it will almost feel like you're cheating.
Modern websites should be responsive to work with any device from mobile to desktop to even future devices that no one has even thought of yet. Plus they should also be able to integrate with social media and be search engine friendly so that they're easy to find. All this, and whatever else you can think of, is part of the package. It's all done affordably too. Which is nice.
The web has given print a beating lately and pundits predict the day when there will be no more printed materials at all. I don't buy that. Just as television didn't kill the film industry, web will not kill print. There is a very different feeling to holding paper in your hand compared to a plastic device and obviously a printed book or brochure doesn't require wifi to work. I love print and I love creating elegant, beautiful, colourful printed materials. Take a look →

Sometimes a photograph just doesn't do the trick. Sometimes it's not just what an image says but how it says it that matters. Sometimes it takes an illustration to get the point across. Visual art has been capturing people's imagination since long before the invention of the camera. There is a certain quality in a hand drawn image that can strike the heart in ways a photograph just can't. No offense photos.
