Recent Visual Inspiration

Pinterest is used extensively in my practice to document and archive major sources of visual inspiration; particularly Graphic/UI Design, Architectural/Environment Design, Colour and Material Design, and Product/Industrial/Transport Design.

Xbox One X is an inspiring continuation of Microsoft's impressive industrial design strategy - minimal, elegant and purposeful. The dark matte black colour contrasts with the mostly white chassis of the critically acclaimed Xbox One S design, inferring its power and purpose as a pro gaming machine over the more entertainment-based, family appeal of the One S. For a company with its foundations in software, Microsoft have surprised the world again and again with their skills at hardware design and engineering. 

The use of large, beautiful imagery is a huge asset for interface designers in creating user engagement, delight, purposefulness and personality. Overlaying elements and utilising transparency effects helps to create a layered, hierarchical appearance.
