I have just put the finishing touches on what may be one of the most complex projects I have completed to date. logo shown within the design not produced by me, but by a third party. Flashpackering Guy is a travel blog aimed at travellers with a larger budget, whereas backpacking is traditionally associated with [...]
Just completed a simple portfolio website for my friend Anna who is a musician and needed a site to help her promote her skill set to prospective employers. The theme is a modification of the free ‘Minimahl’ WordPress theme and features integration with Facebook, Google Calendars and Soundcloud – a perfect solution to web design [...]
I’ve just completed a small promotional website for Author Sean Kerrigan’s new book, Corporatocracy. In addition to promoting the new book in a content managed and custom branded manner to follow the book’s cover design, the site also allows visitors to order a digital copy which is emailed to them automatically upon clearing a payment. [...]
This is a bit late for the blogging but a while back I was involved in creating this design and html/css template for a client who is selling defunct bank notes online for the novelty value. After all, where else can you get a trillion dollar bill? The design revamped the online store’s looks from [...]
To coincide with the recent album cover design I made, I have also been involved in making a new website for The Boxcar Boys. The design was essentially a custom theme built around the blogging CMS ‘Typepad’ and echoes the same style and aesthetic of the CD packaging. The initial design below was proposed but [...]
I’ve been lazy to update my blog, but I have been busy, honest. Let’s update it with this logo I did for a chiptune/breakcore DJ by the name of NovaLion. This bold logo took influences from the 8-bit / Atari graphics era with it’s pixelations and lines. I really feel I have a tight command [...]
My geisha mascot which I use as a logo has been bothering me for some time so I decided to redraw her in Illustrator. She started life as a 3d model in Maya back in 2006, the image of the model was then ‘live traced’ in Illustrator and, except for a few clean ups here [...]
I’ve been working on icons again with this set of 32×32 Icons which will be used for a web page for use with mobile devices. They were created in Illustrator and assembled in Photoshop. The set includes 7 icons in both ‘active’ and ‘inactive’ states.
Well it’s been busy, My clients seem to be going crazy over WordPress, I have spent a lot of time converting old sites (either static or under a different cms) over to the platform. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t my bread and butter as a freelance web designer at the moment. Speaking [...]
I have set my first paid foot into the scary (no second chances!) world of print with an album cover design for Toronto based band ‘The Boxcar Boys’. The design incorporates high resolution texture and colour as well as several personally uncharted Photoshop techniques, and was assembled into a printer’s template and spec along with the [...]
I’ve spent the best part of a week designing and building a blog which consolidates freely available streamed documentaries and encourages users to rate and discuss them. The design was made from scratch by me and built upon WordPress. I put together a jQuery ‘Part Selector’ in the case that a streamed video is divided [...]
I just completed a set of around 50 forum (vbulletin) post icons for a health forum focused on Crohn’s Disease. The task was very enjoyable to do and put my pixel art skills to the test! If you or anyone you know suffers from Crohn’s disease, be sure to share crohnsforum.com with them for support, [...]
Just finished some vector work in Illustrator of some mushrooms! I was thinking of writing a tutorial on how I made them, but I’m not sure how much anyone would benefit from that. We’ll see.
This February project was a major overhaul of a blog which was previously updated using static html. The historical articles and media of the old site were migrated into WordPress then used as a platform to build a custom theme. Site is live at seankerrigan.com
