Grounds Maintenance Site comp
...and here's the first project I've been working on: Grounds Maintenance. There's no longer a print mag for this, it's just a stand-alone site, and will be going into the WIP template. Still a work in progress, but here's where I'm at as of this morning:



Thoughts? Opinions? Suggestions? Thanks!

HPAC Homepage Mockup - Please Crit. :]
HPAC stands for Heating, Piping, Air Conditioning and it's a WIP (Web Integrated Project) site.

Here's a mockup I created for HPAC's homepage. I've also included some magazine covers to give everyone a feel for what their brand is like. So with all this said and done, let me know what you guys think. Thanks! (in advance).

Interesting article on creativity at A List apart

When you describe your profession to others, or when you promote yourself or your agency, are references to creativity prominent in your words? If so, how do you characterize creativity’s role or significance in your work? How closely do your references to creativity conform to the popular understanding of creativity…and how much to its actual nature?"

March MoMA Exhibits
I know some of you guys aren't in the NYC area, but the local museum is having some kick-arse exhibitions that you guys can peruse thru (online) on your spare time.

Design and the Elastic Mind
http://www.moma.org/exhibitions/2008/elasticmind/

I had a chance to scope out the latter exhibit and it was awesome. To see the coalescing of design and technology and how both are dependent on the other was mind-blowing / inspiring / motivating / and other nice buzz words that close-to-burnt-out designers would love to hear. :)

Enjoy!
