Busy times



It´s gone a bit quiet on here but that doesn't mean that I'm being lazy. Like so often, when there´s lots going on, there´s no time to blog about it. My self-negotiated 'practice year' is coming along well and I'm as busy as ever developing new skills and experiencing the 'real world'. After a few commissioned projects like the BiWa website, the interactive e-cards for Allianz Group and the logo for c² Consulting Group, I took a step out of the door of my little studio and went on a work experience with City ID in Bristol. City ID is a design studio that develops award-winning design, information and wayfinding solutions for cities across the world. They are a multi-disciplinary team from a variety of specialist fields including information designers, urban designers, illustrators, cartographers, interface designers and product designers to name but a few. I took the opportunity to shadow them for four weeks and dip in and out of some of their exciting projects. I was also actively involved with information planning and research and developed a personal project with a result that I'm very proud of. What it is will be revealed soon, so watch this space.



Now I'm back at my little studio and work on a couple of websites, one of which is the complete redesign of paznow.com. My new site will go live in early April and so far it´s looking very good and I'm rather excited about it. Until then there probably won't be much blogging, so if you wanna know what´s going on in my life (and the little aches and pains I'm running into) then head over to twitter or facebook and subscribe to the RSS feed or e-mail updates so you won't miss the relaunch.
