Beer!

So this is what I spent most of my time at Spiff doing besides my Dad's stationary and logo stuff (will come later). It's a label for a bitter called Aviator (I didn't choose the name) but I quite like the outcome. Better pictures will come.

Hey Good-Looking, What's Cooking?

okay so I haven't blogged for a while, I'm blaming my bro and xbox live for using up our net allowance, nuff sed about that.

So this is my first piece of design that is actually out there! 

I thought I should record such a momentous occasion with a short post.

It's a menu for a coffee shop called Cuckoos.

The pictures only show the outside because that is what I did, the inside was done by the boss at one of my placements though I did a lot of the typesetting. I don't want anyone looking at this to be disillusioned by my design skills (or lack of). 

So here it is in all it's glory.

Odds and ends/Bits and pieces/Are most interesting

I took these maybe 2 weeks or so ago trying to find some inspiration for my dad's logo, 

inspiration not so much but I did like a lot of the photos. 

It's just interesting how small items in large quantities take on a whole new aesthetic.

Fuses are pretty too.

Mould is the word

Just a little character I made last year and had forgotten about until the other day when I saw him on the windowsill.

See, Mould can be cute!

An apple a day ...

...is nice!

No really. Just saw it and had to take a picture. Yes. I am THAT sad. 

This is for you Mike, eagerly anticipated I know.

//Like Father/Like Daughter//

So I've had this little mania with apple stickers for a while now. 

As I type this, I'm reminded that I have yet to desticker our flat as I stick them everywhere.

I mean everywhere.

I love getting away with sticking a new sticker onto someone's door or possession

and them not noticing.

It's a full-on guilty pleasure. I'm like a sneaky little apple sticker sticking imp.

And I'd forgotten that I'm not the only one who does this.

My Dad does it too. But only on his lunchbox lid because he's an adult.

Funny how you don't notice these things isn't it?

Nanoquarks & Jellybeans

For a project earlier in the year, we had to explain the process of nanoquarks turning into jellybeans. Yes, it is as odd as it seems. But I thought it's a pretty funny little flipbook, why not share it?
