CV Mailer

It's been a while since I have updated my blog, this is because I have been so busy with new projects almost every week so I have never had time to update this.
Anyways I recently finished designing my new CV which I will be handing out at some next week. Have a gander and let me know what you think.

Not been updating the blog for a while now as I've been so busy at Creative Oceanic. I've got a lot of new designs to showcase but once the designs have been printed and photographed you shall see them :)

This is a web project I'm doing at uni. Pretty basic site and I re-designed the logo as the ones they supplied are dire.

Elite Private Cars

2009-01-13T11:16:00.000-08:00

This is the latest adn much improved business card for Elite Private Hire. The client wanted a new font style and a black highlight printed on the title. The design looks a lot better with that sexy glow.

Postwar

2009-01-02T06:16:00.000-08:00

A weird postwar design which I designed at uni. It's a design that would be used for the WALLPAPER* website if there was a sunject on postwar. Thought I'd share the only creative work I have done at the uni. Sigh!

Also, I've entered in the MTV Notebook Design competition and I'm going to be designing funky luggage tags this weekend. Photos will be up soon.
