GEN – .NET Magazine

The brief:

This was great fun once again. It’s been a while since the last build off for .NET mag, so I was overjoyed to be presented with the chance of doing another one. This time it was for an energy provider.

The solution:

As this is a rather stale subject, I wanted to inject a little politics and passion into the equation, so rather than take the usual approach I created a fictitious company called GEN (Or Green Energy in full) toward the earthy folk of the world and show how a design could house some real personality and appeal to people on a level higher than simply ‘being the cheapest’. I already had a few emails from people regarding the article (thanks everyone...and no its not been to complain about my stupid photo ;) so it looks as though its struck a really positive chord, which is ace, just what I wanted. I always enjoy these projects for .NET Magazine!!

The Hard Boiled Baddies

These are the original concept illustrations for my Hard Boiled Baddies that I created last year. I was looking through some old files and found these, so I just thought I’d add them as they are a good indication of how the idea progressed.

These pictures were taken of my lovely wife up on the moors one late evening as the sun was dying away, her hair caught the wind...just as quickly my finger caught the button on my camera. Lucky!
