A logo featuring the Halifax Citadel clock tower made out of negative space within a classic U-shaped magnet. The text "magnetic digital" beside the logomark.
Magnetic Digital logo for a project I'm only just teasing the announcement of; by myself and a secret collaborator.
Hand-drawn vectors for that texture we all love. Project based in Halifax Nova Scotia.

We're finally liquid glass-ifying (before Apple forces it soon anyway)
Cool that I can mess with some of these tab minimise options iOS gives us to get a feel for it without having to go back and forth with Eng and look at recordings etc #designsky
i was posturing because i never made it very far 😭
i think my next approach to design books is to have it as a reference guide while i’m designing instead of trying to read it in order like a novel
any recommendations for design learning books?

A landscape image of a small corner desk, with a computer, sketchbooks, pencils, paints, brushes and a canvas on it. In the background, a painting by artist Bill Prouse and a shelf covered in Lego are visible. In the foreground, a window above the desk shows a bit of roof from the top floor, and a houseplant frames the image.
I love my little office nook so much 😍
Painting on the wall by Bill Prouse, my best friend's grandad.

This is our website. We’re not happy with it anymore…never we’re really…
We’re in need of a refresh. Perhaps a new platform. More photos. Less static.
Any web designers out there in the farm to table space?

Yesterday I got 2 new requests for design projects and I had a feeling like... "Has the ball FINALLY started to roll?"
I mean, I know that doing my own marketing seems to work, but it still surprises me every time. It's a good feeling!

Old Macpass office, Mackay Bridge, Dartmouth.
Testing watercolour and inkwash brushes in procreate, I'm really happy with the results.

Lil' recording. Didn't really bother optimising a lot of it, but fun to see. #designsky
