This showcase is an inspiration dose for creative designers and copywriters. Each advertisement is creatively molded to make an impact and also give the message is it supposed to. No doubt creative works like these involve hell of brain storming and sometimes great research work but it’s worth when are able to pull off work like this.
Today I’ll take you through the creative process of making intriguing light effects and applying them in your work. This is more a process description of making this illustration, than a detailed step by step how to.

The name says it all. If you’ve come here, we mean no offense – there’s just a few career killers that we probably all have been guilty of at one point or another. These concepts definitely apply to interface designers, but if you’ve arrived at this post and you aren’t an interface designer…
I was humbled and delighted when Vitaly Friedman from Smashing Magazine approached me to come up with a new logo/badge for their new Smashing Network. Chalk another one up for the logo design porfolio.
One of the reasons that I like art and its projects is that there is no ‘formal explanation’ to art… every person can take it and interpret it as they want! So in my opinion artists are free to create what they want and in the format they want.
There’s a lot that goes into creating a web design, but I believe it can be broken down into four main components. If you’re able to execute on all four, you will have a hit web design on your hands. However, if you come up short on one, the entire design will suffer.
