Knit Twitter Icon
An interesting concept for an alternative Twitter icon that makes great use of texture. The knitted bird works well to make you look again, although it's certainly not a direction Twitter themselves would ever go.

A simple but effective portfolio for a small design studio. I really like the space in the header section, it contrasts well with the grid layout of the gallery. I really like the way the neutral colours allows the previous work to make an impact.

A great icon concept for Xcode that uses a gorgeous colour palette. I really like the design of the hammer and the perspective given to it. The little details, such as the slightly lifted paper, really help to make this icon work.

Nathan Rafter
A great portfolio site for a web designer that makes an immediate impact. I like the vibrant use of colour and simple layout. The only thing I'm not convinced by is what happens as you scroll over the central button, the boxes that appear look a little messy over the background.

iA Writer Icon
A fascinating updated logo for iA Writer, a minimal writing app for iOS. I like the simplicity of it and the clean use of texture. I do, however, think that it's not the clearest possible icon for the app - the addition of at least one letter (A) before the cursor could clear everything up.

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.
