Hello there and thank you for dropping by. This is my new online home where I can share with you not only my graphic design portfolio, but also my well articulated and intellectual musings, or, more likely, inane ramblings on my design experiences and life in general :))
I wanted to create a website that was more interactive and immediately appealing, where the visitor (that’s you that is) can get a sense that there’s someone real here that you can talk to, exchange ideas with, get advice from and have a bit of craic with. I had designed a sleek and elegant website earlier this year to celebrate my 10 years as a freelancer… however… it wasn’t long before I began to dislike what I’d created. The main problem with it was there was no personality in the design and any visitors would soon scan through the static brochure pages and be likely to think, yes, nice work, but so what?
As with any job, I had a problem and needed to solve it. This incarnation of my site is my current solution. So, what have I done this time that’s so different?
Okay, well, for starters, it’s me here talking to you, I hope that a sense of my personality is coming across to you and that you can see I love what I do and take great pride in any project I produce. You can leave a comment on any of my posts if you like what you read or see, as said above, let’s communicate and exchange ideas.
Then of course, there’s the matter of selling my work and design skills. So I’ve made things as easy as possible for you to view by creating categories for Corporate Identity, Websites, Brochures, etc. I have given my personal thoughts and background information on each project.There are also Case Studies for more in depth analysis of certain projects.
If you’d just like an overview of what I do, then view the Gallery page and get a taste of what I’ve been doing over the last 10 years or so. No words… just images.
Finally, you can make direct contact with me on my erm… Contact page ;))
Ciao for now!
Paulo
Just gone live today with the rebrand and redesign of What’s the Alternative? What’s the Alternative? is an online magazine focusing on alternative and healthy lifestyles, the magazine has only been around since 2007 but my client was getting particularly fed up with it’s dated look and it’s cumbersome method of updating. I was asked to freshen up the identity and incorporate it into a simple, vibrant and professional looking website that had a similarly simple content management system.
