Festa Italiana Frederick
A stunning site that has to be experienced, I love the colours and the little animations that make this site for an Italian food festival so appealing.

poweredByCoffee Website Design & Development
2012 Website redesign for poweredByCoffee. Strong emphasis on colour, brand typography and offset grids. Responsive site app=like navigation. As much of the site as possible is rendered in SVG and CSS rather than raster graphics to produce as close to a retina ready site as possible.

Krystalrae
Krystalrae creates clothing with daring pattern combinations, the site is a perfect match to the bold nature of the designer. I love the typography and great use of scrolling to showcase different outfits.

FL Studio for iPad
A simply gorgeous interface design for a studio app made for the iPad. I love the use of colour and the detail on all of the controls. The depth of detail makes for a truly astounding quality of user experience.

Elless Design
A beautiful and certainly striking site for a web and graphic designer. I love the choice of yellow as a key colour, it really works to grab your attention. The gallery is simple but functional, with previous projects fading to colour as you scroll.

Andre Kreft
A fascinating portfolio site for a photographer and web designer. I find the use of green and yellow an interesting combination. The cutout effect on the separate grids works well to add some character to a standard gallery format.

Who\'s Guest
Who's Guest is a good example of a portfolio for a graphic designer. The highlighting effect that comes into play as you scroll over each design is very effective at holding your attention. I like the faded photographic background but find the overall alignment of the site doesn't quite work for me.

AppAdvice
AppAdvice provides you with all the latest information regarding the App Store and does so using an excellently built interface. The custom icons are great and the use of coloured App icons really brings the App to life.

The Wisdom of Bees
The Wisdom of Bees is a book that uses the metaphor of a bee hive to teach practical business lessons. The wonderfully simple site features simple but perfect illustrations, a bright yellow background and well chose typography. If you watch for long enough, one of the bees flaps his wings!

The Pineapple Thief
A lovingly crafted site with a huge background image, and some really interesting navigation. The typography used in headings and the navigation bar works really well, and adds flair to the design. My only complaint would be that the text used in the main body areas is a little difficult to read. Other than that, a great example of creative background usage.
