Philosophy

Every design task starts as a blank canvas. Gathering input and drafting a creative strategy is the first brush stroke. Next might entail sketching on paper, digitally wireframing, and layout prototyping. Look and feel is comprised of thought, emotion, visual design decisions targeted at eliciting a response and communicating an idea.

Color, texture, shape, pattern, typography, photography, illustration, flow, focus, opacity, overlay, depth; these are the tools with which design is brought to life. The web as a medium enables dynamic states of fluidity and responsiveness, potentially integrating motion and time with interactivity, ultimately all being rendered client-side under any of an infinite combination of human and technological conditions.
