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!

Doss Blockos
A striking, is questionable, example of product branding. Packaging this premium beer in crumpled brown paper bags certainly sets it apart from its competitors. This piece of branding flavours the whole experience of drinking the product.

Restaurant Porte Sainte Claire Annecy
A brilliant restaurant site that makes an immediate impact. I love the food photography here, it's a difficult thing to get right but the colour and freshness of the food here is clearly evident. The simple central block of information is easy to understand and clear, people often just want the vital details when looking up a restaurant online.

A brilliant portfolio site that takes a very fresh and unique approach to the layout and design. I love the way the gallery flows and the use of dramatic colour shifts to make an impact. The simplicity of the site and restrained use of descriptive text works well in this instance.

Andre Alves
The digital portfolio of Andre Alves is clean and effortlessly stylish. The grid layout really works for the gallery, and the navigation has a simple twist to it. I particularly like the custom typeface used for the logo.

A simple shot of an iPhone delivery costs screen for an app called iPostcards. I love the wood grain and the fascinating use of typography. The green and blue circles work really well to make the details clear, even on a small screen.

A gorgeous fragment of a user interface concept for an iPhone app. I love the grain of the wood and how well the chosen typeface works with it. The no/yes button is simply brilliant, I just want to press it!

Health Monitoring Mirror
A fascinating concept for a mirror that monitors your health. The mirror itself is the user interface, I like the simplicity of it. The small module at the top of the mirror is great, I like the curvature and organic shape.

Magnum Minisite
A beautifully designed interface for the Magnum site. The space in the design is great, while the use of chocolate photography immediately makes an impact. I like that the colour scheme, as defined by the chocolate, transfers to the menus.

A fascinating design for an innovative touch screen display that represents the work of the design department. I really like the use of design fragments and intuitive elements. The use of colour is great, as is the clean and minimal navigation.

Epic Ales
A simple but effective site for a brewery based in Seattle. I like the antique and aged look, while the photos perfectly capture the essence of the brewery. It's straightforward and intuitive, allowing the visitor to grasp it immediately.

Smiley
The smiley here is more than a smiley, it’s also the “D” from the company name. I really like the simple but clever concept, while the monochrome pattern on the back of the card is great.
