THE SIMPLE LIFE

We have been meaning to comment on this for a while. Previously we've noted a design trend to strip brands back to basics - Coke and Pepsi - well software giant Microsoft have followed suit with their new look for Windows 8 and accompanying revamp of the windows logo. We approve. Understated, simple and elegant.

PIPE10’S WEBSITE OF THE MONTH!


We are very proud to see that the website we produced for our client Essential Reading Plus (ERP) has been selected as website of the month by hosting company Pipe10. ERP specialise in educational books and send out thousands of emails a month and receive thousands of unique visitors annually to their site which they regularly update with new products and offers.

Each month Pipe 10 review and nominate a site and then email all their customers and post it on their site - which is great publicity for nominated site and by association, the designers.

In their review Pipe 10 say ‘Essential Reading Plus are a comprehensive and up-to-date, independent online educational bookseller. They carry books that cover early years, right through to youth work therefore providing you and your children with a vast array of literature. If the title you are looking for is not on their site there is no need to worry, if you let them know what you are after, they will see if they can track it down for you.

Providing an extensive category list on their site means you can cater your search to find the right books for you, or alternately have a look at their carefully produced list of useful links to help you find exactly what you are after. Why not have a look at their Book of the Month and see if it is something that interests you or browse through their sale items to get yourself a great deal.”

MMM - TASTY! THE PROCESS OF BREWING BEER

Launching soon a new microsite about beer that we've been working on for the British Beer and Pub Association. The new information site highlights the potential health benefits of moderate beer drinking on a healthy diet, and attempts to undo myths like the "beer belly" and the perception that beer is a high calorie drink.

As part of the design exercise, we've produced an infographic of the step-by-step process of brewing beer.
