Echt langweilig. Installment zwei.


Not sure about this one. I'll let it sit for a while, then probably redo it.

Echt langweilig. Installment eins.

I have set myself the task of recording one incredibly boring fact, action or thought a day into some type of typographic poster. They, the posters, may suck but it's fun to try and make sense of the crap that makes it's way into my mind and stays there, consuming the space which could otherwise be used for more productive and purposeful thought processes that would only further my life into reaching fulfillment faster than the current speed it's running at. Such rubbish, yet so enjoyable. Ahh, procrastination.

Objects within house, within underground




After successfully winning a bid on Ebay for a Polaroid camera and some seriously out of date film, I took to the street of London, (well actually, just the London Underground) to see what the film quality was like. To my immediate disappointment I hated the outcome. The vibrant colours that I so hoped I would capture were washed out and dull, lifeless and bordering on challenging my confidence as a photographer. I took offence to the quality as it offended my skills as an amature.
After leaving 10 of the photo's lying under a book and out of sight for 2 months, I rediscovered them once again while cleaning and to my delight, I actually liked what I saw. With the original vivid colours all but whisked away from my memory, I was left with a fresh view and appreciation for these once seemingly uneventful and lifeless photo's. With a new found love of the out of date film, I loaded the last packet into my camera and went crazy within the confines of my house, making sure I involved as much colour as possible just to see how washed out the new, but really old, the film would be. I was delighted to say the least.

Well, I'm off to Ebay now to check out some more film. ENJOY.

Leaky heart


what started off as a simple black and white logo ended up exploding in my face and morphing into a leaking heart. I think I got RSI in my fingers from so many mouse clicks.

Book Cover Design.



2 Years ago I read 'To Kill a Mocking Bird' by Harper Lee. There are only a handful of books that leave an impression on me. This was one of them. Hence I have designed about 5 or 6 book covers, however, only 2 have been successful in my opinion. I believe they are these 2!
