Artisan Foods, (Brand Strategy /CI) 2007 >> view project

Artisan FoodsArtisan Foods offers breads, cakes and other confiserie products. Since they avoid any ready made substances in their production and select quality ingredients, the client wanted to stress the craft behind their business. To encompass the wide range of produce without becoming generic was the greatest challenge with this project .

Kunstpaedagogik.org, (Website Design) 2007

Kunstpaedagogik We created this blog for the University of Wurzburg. The site is divided straight down the middle, enabling two parallel navigations, one section for the department for Kunstpaedagogik and the other for related theoretical discussion, links and galleries. All of which can be updated and contributed to by the staff and the students.

ENDA Initiative, (Website Design) 2007

EDNA Initiative We designed this energy logistic portal, for energy service providers in Germany. Since the liberalisation of the energy market in Europe the industry is going through a groundbreaking restructuring phase. We helped EDNA to build an interface, which enables it to communicate and share the information with its members and efficiently establishes best practice for this industry.

Exit Strategy Productions,(Website Design) 2007

Exit Strategy ProductionsWe created this microsite for Exit Strategy Productions, which enabled them to promote their two short films, as well as fully credit all their cast and crew involved. The site is minimal on the surface and by using sliders allows vistors to easily access more in depth information. Again this site is designed in XHTML and to WAI-AA.

BBC - (Interface and Application Development) 2006 >> view project

bbc_newscasters.pngWe were invited by the BBC’s Innovation department to develop prototypes for bbc.co.uk. We developed ‘BlipNews’ an interface developed for on the fly annotation. Our design emphasised focused and constructive contribution, easy search and navigation of annotations, and a concise visualisation of the impact of an article.

CTAD (Branding and Product Design - CDROM) 2006 >> view project

eia_signs_9.pngCTAD invited us to work with them to rebrand and develop a suite of learning CDROMS: English in Action is a set of learning resources for adult literacy. Workshoping with their writers, educationalists and systems specialists we began to re-build the brand. We set upon creating a product that facilitated eLearning in an innovative and accessible way. Level 1 was showcased at BETT 2006.

we are not architects, (Brand Strategy /CI) 2006 >> view project

wearenotarchitects1.pngWe developed a temporary identity for the collaborative work of Rocio Paz and Yael Brosilovski, former Zaha Hadid co-workers. Through their name - we are not architects’ - they wanted to challenge the preconceptions of architecture. We developed an identity which playfully complemented and extended this idea.

Bhatt Murphy, (Brand and Website Design) 2006 >> view project.

bhattmurphy.pngBhatt Murphy are one of the top Human Rights specialists in the UK . We developed a very specific site that combines interactive timelines, online forms and a bespoke CMS and conforms to strict WAI-AA standards. We also made sure that the navigation was enhanced for screen readers, and therfore works really well on small screens like third gen. mobile phones.

German Deli (E-Commerce Site and Branding) 2005 >> view project

german_deli.pngGerman Deli is one of the most popular German Food Distributors in the UK. It has a huge and increasingly loyal private customer base. It combines its online store with stalls at all the big London Food Markets and a shop in the heart of the city. We created a lighthearted brand that compliments the very open and friendly approach of the business. We focussed on making the site very, very easy to use and is designed in XHTML and WAI-A which maximises its accessibility to potential customers.

Essential Ingredient, 2006 (Website design)

essentialingredient4.jpgEssential Ingredient is a young and dynamic company founded by German-born Volker Nissen, whose 20 years of culinary experience in Gourmet restaurants in Europe and beyond such as Claridge’s, Montreux Palace and Michelin-starred restaurants in France form the base and the philosophy of this company. Through a collaborative design process we laid the foundations for a new online identity. Again this site is designed in XHTML and WAI-AA which maximises its accessibility in more ways than one ;-)

Greenwich Council, (Branding and Concept Design) 2005 >>view project

greenwich_turtle.pngGreenwich Council was looking for ways to encourage adults back into learning and to advertise their range of adult education courses in the area. We worked together with Red Kite Learning and developed a cross-media campaign called ‘i-wonder’. Playing on the themes of curiosty and discovery, we developed illustrations from hundreds of photographs of Greenwich landmarks, (some famous and some not so famous).

CTAD - (Interface Design) 2005

vidpicker.jpgAs part of our consultancy with CTAD, we prototyped a specific application to support learners with language comprehension. ‘Vidpicker’ enabled learners to annotate, link and comment on particular bits of video footage. We designed a virtual ‘pocket’ device that let’s learners organise their notes in a simple and easy manner.

Tribal Education - (Interface Design) 2005

WakeMeUp ScreenshotsWe developed specific learning materials for adults with severe disabilities. The interactive applications are controlled by a one switch device. The device can be triggered by something as simple as a blink of an eye. Our aim was to encourage learners to observe how they can produce different sounds, images and effects as they make movements.

Iris Kadel, (Website Design) 2005

iris_kadel.jpgWe have been working with Iris Kadel for the past two years. We focused on a strict and reduced design since the site itself is meant to stand back and let the artists’ work do the talking. The site is designed in XHTML and WAI-A. Behind the site there is a bespoke content management system to allow staff to update the site in the ways they want to.

Southwark Council, 2004

snll_1.jpgWe worked together with Red Kite Learning to create ways to promote Southwark Learns. We started by developing a coherent identity which would be able to run across the various platforms from which they wanted to operate. A CDROM and complimentary web portal which contained interactive applications and games for improving numeracy and literacy were developed by us. We also designed interactive tools to help learners write a CV and prepare for job interviews.

Southbank University - 2004

llu_drops1.pngWe developed specific learning materials for Adult Basic Numeracy. Research showed that the target group often had very bad experiences with education. We created calm abstract environments in which the learner was not pressured or patronised. We also ensured that the applications were quick to load and playful enough to engage.

Wandsworth Council - BET - 2004

bet2.pngBET (Bidding for Employers Training), was a new service for local businesses. The service is designed around the idea of an online auction. Businesses put forward what sort of training they are looking for and training suppliers bid against each other to aquire new business. We focused on a light hearted but intuitive, friendly interface.

Southwark Network for Lifelong Learning, 2003 >>view project

logo_snll1.jpgWe redeveloped the logo for SNLL (Southwark Network for Lifelong Learning), to embrace the new direction the initiative was taking.
