2015 personal review
2015 has been a great year for me, both in and outside of work. I’ve put together a brief summary of my professional highlights of the year together with some goals for 2016.

At the beginning of December I did my first bit of public speaking, at web a meet-up called MK Geek Night. The title of my seven minute presentation was ‘The Often Underestimated Element of Truly Effective Design’.
Typefaces inspired by early grotesque and mid-century neo-grotesque fonts are so hot right now. I’ve compiled a list of some of my favourites, all released in the last few years by a number of different font foundries.
Better, more effective modern web content is achieved by focussing upon being empathetic, rather than putting effort into selfish, inward-facing spiel.
This isn’t another post about about common designer qualms. Content, or rather a complete disregard for it, is for me the single most infuriating aspect of designing websites.
Studying at Shillington was a fantastic experience. It was inspiring, motivating and rewarding. And despite perhaps not being the archetypal candidate for the course, I learnt a lot. I’ve put together a personal reflection of my time on the course covering why I went there, what I learnt and my views of the course as a whole.
I’ve not posted for a while because I’ve been busy putting together my final portfolio for my course at Shillington College in London. My final graduation exhibition took place last night at a gallery in Shoreditch. It’s been a journey and it’s with sadness and relief that I’ve reached the end.
