Build Conference – Belfast 2009

Build Conference

What a day.  This is all I can say. Inspired, invigorated & thoroughly enjoyed are some of the words that come to mind.

I will fill you in…

The Conference Started with a bight and I must say breezy talk from Tim Van Damme, (No not Claude, Tim) on Passion.

I unfortunately didn’t get to take many notes as I was trying to be uber designer cool and use the wireless, which as per usual at these things it fell over and decided not too work #waterfrontwirelessfail

An Audience with Airside

Airside

So in the Leadup to Build Conference I attended an ‘Evening With Airside’ a Design Company in London.  Sometimes its good too feel inspired and after I had heard them I felt just that.

These guys are competent in all things Design, Web, Graphic Motion, Video all the Shizzle Majizzle.  It was interesting how they work on Projects and what their thought and Processes are.

However then came the icon line of the talk.

‘We should care for our websites, continue to evolve them and challenge boundaries.’  This struck a cord, sometimes I can get stuck in a rut, I need to rediscover the passion that I once had and push my own boundaries both design and life.

Thanks Airside (even though I didnt get a free calender) #badtimes

At the end of January I began to redesign my entire website.  I felt it had such an out of date look that I began to resent it, this is a bad sign when you really need it to make some money.

I began to look at some current trends and realised that the ‘new look’ for this year is textured backgrounds. (more…)
