Were alive!!!
We have been so busy with projects, updating the website, new born babies and operations, we simply have had no time to give the blog / social media any love!
There will be a news article on what we have been up to soon!
In the meantime, we recently did a photoshoot with one of our clients Falles Motor Group, some pretty cool shots emerged, here’s a selection…

After a frantic few weeks in the music world with the likes of Noel Gallagher releasing his first solo album, only to be overshadowed by the astounding news that The Stone Roses are reforming for gigs in 2012.

Heres our fantastic new business cards!
We are like kids in a sweet shop, giddy as can be 
Our new cards have been designed to be touched, to be looked at and enjoyed. To acheive the look, take GF Smith colorplan pale grey board, mix in embossed dots and add a splash of black foil block for the lettering, not cheap! …but worth it!
A few weeks ago browsing YouTube I stumbled upon some previews of Windows 8 and I uncovered a surprisingly dramatic new direction. One quote sums it up: “We reimagined Windows“.
This was prior to Microsoft unveiling it at the BUILD conference on 15th September 2011. Here it was revealed that a large focus will be allocated to developing Metro Apps for Windows 8 (Metro UI is Microsoft’s ‘design language’ using principles, such as the typography, to approach the design of the user interface by consolidating groups of common tasks, to speed up usage and catch the eye. A refreshing change from icon based interfaces).
The focus on Apps and Metro UI clearly indicates Microsoft’s intention to make headway in the tablet and mobile computing market. But what I found out about the other features of Windows 8 really intrigued, how many of these features are speculative, rumours or truths will remain to be seen…. So whats the deal?
