My Portfolio
From here you will be able to see a sample of my product, interactive, business, graphic and web work. Some of these have been university projects as part of my BA Product Design degree, and some are my own work, or freelance work that I have undertaken for other people.
Instead of putting a long list of skills, I have broken my portfolio into final products. I have undertaken many exercises in the skills of product design, yet these are worthless without the background work behind the design. In these projects I will look at the whole design workflow from Ethnology to Business and Marketing.
I'm always looking to expand my portfolio, if you have any paid or unpaid work then please contact me.

Potential ATB
This was the project that got me into Middlesex University to study Product Design, looking back on it I did a pretty good job. I didn't know about the whole process, yet I undertook it naturally as a keen rider in an underground sport. Potential ATB has its own unique truck system, and a Snowboard construction snowboard deck. I plan to be working on this in the future, yet not sure if it will ever make it to the track.

SuperToy
It started with a presentation to a group of 40 eight year olds, then SuperToy got serious! This was a freelance project in collaboration with a teaching department at Middlesex university. The toy was 'Designed by Kids, for Kids', we were to just make sure it could be produced.

The Chameleon
A project for the Dezac corporation, the Chameleon was as a result to have a free form expression and discovery into a new project. This was the most traditional and in-depth design project at the moment, The final Idea wasn't as strong as the concepts, yet it wasn't as innovative as I would of liked I believe there would still be a market place for it.

Lights for 'Unto This Last'
This was a university project for a small furniture company in the trendy Brick lane area of London. They have a very strong manifesto and they see there products as a Splime, I'm not so sure. But I did create some funky lights.

dub.
Developed as a personal project to expand my design skills and critically look at the mobile market. This is a fast project completed over several evening in a month. dub builds on the links with connections, and views a phone as a connection device, not as just as an extension of a closed loop music ecosystem.

Energy Tree
Developed for Microsoft's StartSomthing PC Competition, the Energy tree is a all in one device to view energy use in the home, and improve the overall energy lifecycle. The Energy tree both monitors power consumption and recycling use, I believe that as the house of the future relies on more power we need to be more aware of our energy use. This is shown through the metaphor of a tree.

LiveWallet
Developed for Microsoft's StartSomthing PC Competition, yet not accepted as a result of showing the GUI. I believe that as a product designer that the UI is just as key as the hardware interface and the two things are becoming one. The LiveWallet looks at the traditional role of the wallet and brings the product into the 21st Century

www.teamsoba.co.uk
I have been associated for SOBA for nearly 6 years, and have created many website's. The current website is the best website that I have created. Its pure XHTML and CSS, and I believe it just has enough visual, content and design to make it a great working site.
