Design

This week I (Becky) met up with a lovely girl who is part of The Girls Network, whose mission is to inspire and empower girls from the least advantaged communities by connecting them with a mentor and a network of professional role models who are women. It's an incredible charity, and I was glad I was able to help.

In our first blog post of this 4 part series we covered one of the original ‘isms’ with Skeuomorphism, and now we’re moving into more modern trends with a look at Interactive design. What is Interactive Design and how can it work for you?

What is Skeuomorphism and how it's developed? This blog post is the first in a 4 part blog series in which I will cover design trends from the 80's Skeuomorphism to today's re-emerging Y2K designs. It's always interesting to see how and why some trends stay or don't. And perhaps why some trends drip on through all eras. We'll also look at some truly inspirational work which will hopefully inspire.

In the second part of this 3 part series, I will be looking at Dann Petty who is an inspirational web designer. Last time I covered Jessica Walsh so be sure to go back and check that out.

In our final post of our 4 part series I will be covering Kitsch design. We've already covered Skeuomorphism, Interactive design and Claymorphism so if you've not read those I'd suggest checking them out.

What is Claymorphism and how can you create the look? In this 4 part series, we have previously covered Skeuomorphism and Interactive design, and now we're going to look at another modern trend, another 'ism' Claymorphism. If you've not read this series's two previous blog posts, why not check them out? If not, here's a brief run-through of these trends and how we got here.

In this 3 part blog post, I will cover some designers that have inspired me or currently do so in my career. We’ll start with Jessica Walsh, whom I discovered early on in my career and who has continued to inspire me.

In the final part of this 3 part series, I will be looking at Aaron Draplin. This is probably the designer I have been following the longest and who has shaped how I design.
