Blog Posts

I have been featured on this blog, it's more for websites but it's still good to get the name out there.

Tom's site has been featured on this blog, but they have picked our work out to feature which is good. It is brilliant that they have recognized the collaboration between us both. This is what we need.

Workshop

Me and Tom have been offered some studio space just outside of Leeds in Harrogate. This is above the barber shop that I did some work for. It's pretty much an offer we can't refuse as we are both exited to be working together and potentially start up a 'business' or as I like to call it, a studio.

This is the logo we have come up with. We want to call it 'Workshop' and feel this is a nice way of communicating that. The logo is clean and simple and reflects the way we work.

Website

New updates on the site and a little re-vamp do get the ball rolling. The photo's are the outcome of a long day in the lighting studio. The site has generated a little work such as a photography book for Paul Phung which is going to be published by small independant book publishers Kaugummi Books.

The site has also been featured in Indexhibit which means it is generating about 3000 hits a day!

Espoke LTD

Another free lance job. Just a flyer for an IT compay in Harrogate. Simple aesthetics but a fair amount of body copy and a map make the back a little busy. Customer was happy though, so so am I.

Barber & Mack

I have recently branded a new up-market gentleman's barber shop in Harrogate. This included signage, identity, flyers and appointment cards as well as small runs of poster prints for the opening. I kept it simple but classy as the aesthetics of the shop

This is a client I would love to keep and continue doing work for as I am doing.

Website

The website is finally up. I am very pleased with it and have had a lot of good feedback from it. I dont have much work on it at the moment but that is soon to change. I have kept it really simple, like my initial ideas, but this has paid off as it is easy to navigate and work.

Pressision Visit

Me and Anand went to Pressision Print Lab A couple of weeks ago. The whole place was really cool, very small but a nice tight organization. The guy who runs the print jobs (studio manager) Jonathan showed us around. The place was really impressive. He showed us where they makes plates, the Hp Indigo Digital Printer, the Litho Press, Foiler (which was ancient, but this made it cooler) and all the finishing stuff.

This is just a little booklet he gave us to show off the company. It is really nice, the colours of the photos look mad because in the Magenta part of the Litho, they poured in the bright pink spot colour from the front, this is what gave it a mad tint. Very nice and clean design work as well.
