MoneyBook Icon
A simple but beautifully effective icon for an iPhone app. This MoneyBook icon perfectly conveys the purpose and design of the app, something that's vitally important when designing an app icon. I particularly like the coherent use of texture and stitching detail.

Video Player
A brilliant piece of interface design for a iPhone video player. I find the simplicity of the controls works well, each icon is effortlessly clear and stylish. The slight transparency also works well to give the app a final touch of class.

A really clean and effective piece of interface design here. I love the 'Available for freelance' section and the accompanying green light. The use of texture is great and really complements the overall design.

Happy Mother\'s Day
A beautifully designed tribute site for the mother of a designer. The full screen video makes an incredible impact, as does the gentle piano piece. The typeface used and text placement and colour works really well as an overlay to the video.

Mostly Serious
A clean and clear portfolio site for a web design agency. I like the simple background and intuitive layout, although there is perhaps a little too much space between the logo and the 'Work' section. I like that the purpose of the site is immediately clear.

Peacock Card
A simple but beautiful business card for a hair stylist. The circular card works well for a non-business profession, while the typeface is great. The peacock design makes an immediate impact!

Anderson de Paulo
A fascinating design site for a designer that can't fail to make an instant impact. The colours are so vivid they immediately intrigue and capture your attention. Whether you like the design or not, you can't help but look.

World Cup Game Schedule
A brilliant calendar design that features all of the information you could have wanted about the World Cup. Its beautiful design ethic combined with its intuitive layout makes for a great user experience. I particularly like the circular design used here for the final 16.

Orishiki (Clutch bag)
A fascinating design for a clutch bag. It's made from a single piece of two dimensional structure, constructed of triangular segments which can be folded like origami. The concept is intriguing, although it remains to be seen whether it can take off as a fashion item.

Sumit Paul
An intriguing site for a designer who focuses on \'typographically sound\' design. It\'s interesting that it\'s so stripped back and minimal and simply includes a shot from his latest project rather than a gallery. I do, however, like the focal slideshow and the beautiful graphical detail on each slide.

First Direct for iPhone
An excellent iPhone App for banking on the go from a bank that knows the importance of good design! The bold use of black and white makes a statement about security and confidence while the intuitive use of tabs makes for a great user experience!

An excellent portfolio site that immediately draws you in! The use of a gallery as the central focus works and brings colour and life to the site. I particularly like the little details that make all the difference. Details such as the arrows that guide you in and the ripped effect of the gallery items.
