Data, Paper, Rough up.


Self initiated project.
I am currently writing data and graph info on the Mp's Expenses Scandal.
Really wish that the printers would print on something more juicy than 50gsm Satin bleached out white!!!

A nice Ivory Fabriano seems the way forward with this. Delightful.

I am not sure what relevance this has to my design work, however, I decided to post it anyway. It has been a while since I have seen a rainbow quite so strong. The leaves on the trees really change colour with the help of sunlight. Quite a pleasent view to wake up to out of your bedroom window...!!!

Land Art/ Deconstruction-Goodwood Sculpture Park





















Here is a write up on the 'Goodwood Sculpture Park' I have done. What an amazing place. I have never seen quite so many pieces of work from such famous Sculptors, all in one beautiful surrounding.' Click on it to read it.

Has anyone seen this before...?




















A common site on Bermondsey Street, in London Brigde.

A very informative interview, Stefan Sagmeister.

I suggest people check out this documentary. I found it on the Hewlett Packard website. It is interesting to anyone studying 'Ecology,' such as myself. Please enjoy, this chair insane!

A room with a view.













Here is a photograph i took whilst on a trip round the 'Goodwood Estate.' There is an interesting use of light and the view from the window is peaceful. Indeed, i would much appreciate building my house there. Weasels, stoats and hares might share my humble abode amongst the forest.

Stratford Workshops

Here is something I was playing around with, after having photographed the Workshop building outside my flat thousands of times! I spaced the type closer than usual so you can decipher the image clearly. Could this be the end to the current 'Rockwell Craze...? We shall see.

My Table of offerings


Here is a photograph I took on the final day of hanging the exhibition.

I thought I would blog this just incase i needed to reference this in the future.

Note the Vintage Scalextric car, I have been collecting these for some months now.

A6 Postcards, Impressions of London


Here is my postcard booklet. The cover displays all of the images it contains.

I titled my Postcards with a theme, 'Under Pressure.' These images convey the darker, more sinister sides to London.







I also photographed the Stratford Olympic Site from a tall building, whilst the sun died down. The lighting and colours exposed in the photograph are remarkable.




Virtual Presence, Virtual Canvas

It was not long ago now that I decided to create a canvas, with a moving message board built into it. It was in response to the Virtual presence brief we were given.

This project was to be the focal point to my exhibition space this year. It will become interactive on the 16th, the day of the private view, in which people will be invited to display there thoughts based upon given topics, such as religeon and gender. This i want to be a talking point throughout the exhibition.

It looks like this...






















It has been a while since I have made something quite so conceptual as my very large canvas.

Again, I made a mini step by step book to explain it's logic and to explain what it is for. Here is the introduction, to help you get a better understanding.

Twas, The Worlds a Stage, Piddock & Puttock


This project was based upon marketing and lettings of Gallery Exhibition Space.

For this project Elliott and I decided to go Eco Friendly.

We created a book based on what our version of Piddock and Puttock offers. It was a very Interesting project to undertake. The outcome was very appealing.

I also created a poster to tie in with the book.



Repackage, Repackroadsigns


It was a month ago now that Elliott and I drew up this project. We went to dover and back in the hope to collect data from the road and surroundings, in order to create a book.

Here is an example of what it looks like finished!






Here is some data we collected-

A3 Group Project


Here is the outcome to my group project. It advertises the exhibition of our classes A1 Quote's and Font's project.

Font's & Quote's

Here is a preview of my A1 poster for the Font's and Quote's project. Noel Coward is clearly described here, in a pre-filled in crossword describing his life. Hugely involved in the public eye, Coward appeared in the media quite often. Often he is associated as the man that 'invented the celebrity.'

The font used is 'Times New Roman.' Picked out of a hat, this font lends itself to this poster well.
