We recently launched a brand new website for Depiction Lab, a design consultancy specialising in the creation of branded environments for the retail, commercial and leisure sectors. The site was to be quite standard in terms of its content, with news, a portfolio and company profile. However the visual approach was more adventurous, meaning that a Flash website was the best fit for them and their audience. Read the rest of this entry »

It was the eclectic range of speakers and associated subject matters that convinced me to return to Brighton having attended dConstruct in 2007. If you didn’t know dConstruct was a conference aimed at web designers and developers you certainly wouldn’t have gleamed that from looking at this year’s schedule. Read the rest of this entry »

Since the value of the pound has been dominating the news, I wanted to write about a more positive note on the pound. Prime Minister Gordon Brown launched an outward attack on the Conservative Party after the party’s shadow Chancellor George Osborne warned that the collapse of sterling would be down to the government’s ambitious plans to spend its way out of the economic crisis.

Radiohead’s latest video for their single House of Cards is, in true Radiohead fashion, a little bit ground-breaking. The video was recorded without light and without cameras. Instead they employed a couple of scanning technologies that mapped the scenes in 3D. They could then use the raw data to create the video using various rendering options and show the scenes from any angle they desired. Read the rest of this entry »

I recently had the opportunity to attend the Offf festival in Lisbon, as a Dusted correspondent. The event, in its 8th edition, is one of the most exciting digital design festivals in Europe at the moment. It showcases top talents from web design to typography, motion graphics to installations, in a 3day marathon of talks, performances and workshops, lasting 10 hours each, uufff.

The footer, as if to warrant its physical position in life, can often be left until last during the design process, like some sort of digital outcast. To the contrary, the footer deserves so much more attention than that. It can often be the next port of call in the event of a site’s navigation lacking a link that a user feels should be there (most commonly, this is a link to contact details).

After visiting the Future of Web Design last year, I thought I’d attend again this year taking my trusty sidekick Jack along for the ride this time. Once again it was a very interesting day with top-quality speakers. Read the rest of this entry »
