  2. The View From Above I’ve started working on a little side project recently to aggregate all of the fantastic photos from Commander Chris Hadfield’s Twitter stream. Commander Hadfield is aboard the International Space Station and regularly posts images of Earth from space to his followers. What’s more, they are *amazing* photos. Stuff like this and this. (you can probably see why I wanted to pull them all together in one place). You can check out my work in progress site over here and follow Chris Hadfield’s tweets here. The View from Above

  4. Say hello… …to the newly launched Airside 日本 website. For the past couple of months, when I’ve not been at GDS working on the single domain project, I’ve been putting together a nice new site for design studio, Airside Nippon. Working alongside Henki Leung (who’s illustrated handiwork you see above), I designed and developed the portfolio site using nifty content management tool, Expression Engine. Pop over and take a look, or you can read more about the project here.

  6. Designing icons for the Government. I’ve recently been working with the very talented team at the Government Digital Service — a group tasked with the very difficult job of ensuring the Government offers world-class websites that meet people’s needs. The first public iteration of their work has just been released at gov.uk and I had the fun job of working on a set of icons to denote different sections of the site, seen above. The ambition and goal of the gov.uk project is fantastic news for the public. If you care at all about having Government web services that are transparent, usable and helpful, I recommend you head over and take a look. Leaving your feedback for the team would be a bonus too. Visit gov.uk

  7. A new year, a new start I only had one new year’s resolution for 2012… — Become a freelance designer and set up Futurefabric as a limited company. And well, I’m pleased to say that before the year’s even had a chance to shake off it’s hangover, I’m now a fully fledged independent. I’m feeling pretty fired up about the year ahead and would love to hear about any interesting projects or collaborations. Please get in touch if you think we could work together, it’d be great to hear from you. Oh and a happy new year to you!

  8. Machinarium I recently finished this point-and-click adventure game from Amanita Design and was pleased to find it totally lives up to the indie game studio’s past form. I highly recommend it to anyone with an appreciation for thoughtfully crafted design and excellently paced conundrums that require a bit of lateral thinking. Visit the Machinarium site.

  9. Airside 1998—2012 Today I received some news that left me with a heavy heart — Airside, the design company I worked for for five happy years is to fold early next year. I have so many fond memories of being a member of the Airside team and feel privileged to have played a part in the studio’s story. I was also lucky enough to meet and work with so many super cool, talented people. It’s fair to say that never before have I worked for a company (nor will I likely again) that so vehemently protected, trusted and cared for it’s designers and the creative process. This is something that could only ever have been possible with designers themselves at the company’s helm. I see now that Airside’s directors made huge sacrifices to keep the company this way, giving the rest of us enormous creative freedom, often at cost to themselves. For that I want to say thanks Nat, Fred and Alex and thanks for the good times Airside, we’ll be sad to see you go.
