20

a series of different covers for one issue of a magzine may not be new, but it is seldom done as well as this fabulous set for the 20 years jubileum (has it really been that long?) of dazed

shot by co-founder and photographer ‘rankin’ and featuring a whole bunch of typical ‘dazed’ cuture icons, mind you it would have been fine by me to just do 20 different covers of ‘polly’

mobile me

the revamped ‘iPhone’ version of the ‘me blog’ is now online, this version with a slightly modified navigation should work on all mobile devices, there seem to be a few problems with ‘android’ devices at the moment but we are working on it

the easy solution would be if everyone just got rid of their android thingy and bought an iphone, thanks in advance for your cooperation…

shop talk

yesterday a group of second year graphic design students from ‘university college falmouth’ in the UK visited the studio to have a look at some work and talk about getting started in the business

as usual it was really nice to meet the next generation of designers and share some ideas about the profession, good luck guys and see you again some time maybe… many thanks for the ‘goodies’ too!
