Almost every day my cycle route takes me through the heart of the 19th and 20th arrondissements. From Blvd Ménilmontant via Blvds Belleville and Villette on towards Stalingrad via Jaurès, this is not a place for the faint of heart. [...]

Just in case anyone thought that I wasn’t keeping my eye in recently, I post for your enjoyment an experimental typography project that until recently remained 1’s and 0’s and seemed destined to live forever in the dark recesses of Binary Land. [...]

Always nice to see some really well done Photoshop montage shizzle. This is a great example for the upcoming Canal Plus docufiction (!) ‘Paris, La ville a remonter le temps’. [...]

There seems to be something in the air recently! Another logo project, this time for a high fashion boutique selling shoes and accessories for the discerning lady. [...]

I don’t know about you but I just had a flashback to 1984!

Just a little detail from from a recent project I was working on for one of those large global corporations that supply you with all the consumer products you love. You know the one. It’s BIG! Hair, shaving, beauty, laundry etc etc. [...]

Frankly, this has to be one of the most amazing animated gif’s that I have ever seen! The level of intricacy is quite wonderful [...]

Well, I have been honoured and privileged to have had the opportunity to feast on this wall of creativity pretty much every day for the last year. Ever changing and morphing into different forms, Rue des Pyrenées has been a vast canvas for urban essays issuing from the cans of some of the finest street artists in Paris. [...]

A random project experiment found skulking on my Mac’s hard drive in a dusty folder of unfinished work. A colour halftone based on a sonogram from DJ Gunshot’s Wheel ‘N’ Deal sample of [...]

In between designing a wicked London-based iOS/Android app for a not so mysterious Russian Billionaire (details to follow soon) and knocking out some designs for France 3 [...]

A fascinating retrospective of the Czech toy Designer Libuše Niklová who designed ground breaking flexible toys from the 50’s to the 1980’s. [...]

This is so lovely it makes me want to shout from the rooftops about it!
CentQuatre on rue d’abervilliers in the 18eme arr continually puts out stunningly designed advertising. This is no exception. [...]

Just check out those curves-that’s no Ford Mondeo!
Visited Les Arts Décoratifs last night to see the exhibition L’art de l’auto mobile. [...]

Well, it has been a while. When I started this blog it was my intention to write at least a blog a week. [...]

Beautiful type, harmonised colours and some pleasing symmetry announcing the fact that one is about to embark on a wonderous train journey up a mountain from Flåm to Myrdal in the heart of Fjord country. Gotta love the simplicity!

Some experiments in form and colour for a new logo project. [...]

The BIG day is arriving on the 11th. Just finished the the table name illustrations- all 18 of them. It seemed like a good idea at the time to illustrate the invitation and all the table cards. [...]
