Textures
To get my mind of my exam which I am almost done with (finally), I played around with some textures in Photoshop. I love the way something really simple can get it's own strong look with just a little texture used.. These are just for the fun of it - please let me know what you think.
AU App
Finally it’s time for a little news from me. I have been super busy lately. Mostly with my new company Bytemark but also at the university. And speaking about the university I thought I would just show you a little something I did for my exam project.
The class I follow is called “Mobile Media and Platforms”. In my study group we wanted to make a prototype of a mobile app for the students at the university. An app that would center on location based services. It would use your exact location to push you notifications about open classes and other different offers from the university when you move around on campus. In that way you would only get info that were relevant to your geographical location. Also it would include a map service that uses augmented reality to show you what hides behind the walls of the many buildings on campus. Anyway here you can see the presentation material I did for the project. Later this semester I’m going to turn in a paper about the project as well.
// 2011 update
The exams are over and a new year is slowly beginning. This week I begin a new semester at the University where I will be following the course ”Mobile media and platforms”. It sounds really interesting and relevant for what I’m currently and hopefully will be doing in the future. 2011 also started great for my little company Bytemark. We got lots of really exiting cases to work on and they seem to just keep coming. I will soon show and tell a lot more about Bytemark however right now there is only just time to get the work done for the clients. Below is a little sneak preview on a logo/identity we are currently doing for a client.

John J. Custer made these cool graphical illustration of NIKEiD shoe. They were "transleted" and made for the Nike boutique shops in Berlin, Hong Kong, London, Paris, and San Clemente.

// Graphic design
Finally! My bachelor assignment is done and turned in. Now I can only wait… In the mean time I have been playing a bit around with using typography to design with. I have always been kind of a typography geek and I think this way of using text for other text is kind of fun. Anyway this my first little test. I hope you like it.
// Christophe Huet
I just spend some time escaping from my schoolwork on Christophe Huet’s website. He is a professional photo retoucher and his work is amazing! The website has got a feature that lets you go through the stages of his retouching work. It’s pretty amazing! Check his work on www.christophehuet.com
