Reservoir Dogs
A simple but effective design for a preview video player. I like the clean use of UI elements and use of standardised Mac UI colours. I particularly like the floating window concept and the perspective given to the buttons.

An intriguing design site that allows you to showcase your work and get feedback from the community. I like some of the touted features, the ability to tag a section of a design with a comment is a particular favourite.

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.

Fiat
An ingenius iPad interface that allows you to interact with Fiat cars and decide on the one for you. I like the ease with which this interface allows you to change between colours and specifications. The driving simulator is a brilliant concept, really enticing for potential customers.

Mount Tea Special Edition
A gorgeous, and unique, example of brilliant packaging design. I love the bright and vibrant use of colour and geometric shapes. The concept of using a shape that accurately represents not only the brand name, but also the shape of the tea bags, is just great!

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.

Xcellon
A great logo and logotype for a corporate branding exercise. I love the use of colour on the 'X' logo itself, although perhaps that could have been used as the first letter of the word. The type is clean and utterly readable, something especially important for corporate logos.

Caleb Amesbury
A great piece of UI design that comes from the footer of the personal website of Caleb Amesbury. I really like the raised feel of the icons and green highlight colour. The simple tweets section also works well and makes great use of the twitter blue.

A bright and bold site for web design and marketing agency. The use of icons and illustration throughout really helps to give the site character, it makes a statement about the company itself. The intuitive layout is great and helps to guide you through the page, you can immediately tell what it is the company does.

Pantone Calendar
A fascinating and gorgeous design for a calendar. I love the attempt here at making the calendar relevant on a global scale by including a huge variety of images (1440) from around the world. The colour wheel concept is great and has been painstakingly carried through here.

The Good Food Finder
A clean and simple interface for an ingenious iPhone App that helps you discover and share the best local ingredients. I find that the colour palette really works, while the map feature is an effective way to source and find ingredients.
