Rage Against the Machine

This Rage Against the Machine project aimed at provoking people to think about energy consumption. I wanted to show how many items and appliances that people have unnecessarily switched on in their houses at the one time, wasting energy.




























































I am undecided whether I am entirely happy with these designs. Hopefully I will be able to go back and have another look at them sometime.

Finished Experimental Type Work

This is the finished work from the experimental typography post I made a few weeks ago.

Bimini

Ok so here is my typeface, Bimini, along with the promotional mailers I designed. The idea of part of my mailer is a 'kit' to encourage the audience to enter a competition to win ' Bimini' by trying out recreating something similar yourself 'D.I.Y' and sending it to be posted on my website. I also designed some postcards and a box/envelope to put all the 'kit' in when posting to designers, agencies and companies. I was slighty worried about this item and felt it let my over concept down. My lecturers agreed, however they really liked my overall idea and all the other items I presented. So I guess that good? I am going to work on the mailer box and try to produce something a lot stronger :)









































To be continued.............

Experimental Typography

So 3rd year has begun :) I have been working on a brief that has basically let me make a whole lot of mess with as many materials as I can find (as long as they are white). I wasn't too keen at first to be honest but as I started to work I came up with lots of ideas and actually had some fun.

These are just a few of the ideas I came up with :)

I MISS MY DOMINIQUE

Summer '09

Heyyyy

I thought I would make a post as I have neglected my blog for sometime now. To be honest this is due to the face I have not done anything very interesting. I have spent a lot of time with family as I am living at home in Port Glasgow for summer. 

I also spent a few weeks in Carlisle with friends and been on a few day trips here and there. 

I have just started working on re-designing my website so watch this space....haha x
