Weekly Inspiration #2

Week no2 kicks off with a sweet design from You’re the Youth. Enjoy…

1.  You’re the Youth is a politcal site aimed at young folk and potential first time voters:




2.  Next is a great looking portfolio site from Christian Swinnen. Nice textures:




3.  Arrested Development is a US comedy series starring Jason Bateman. The site uses some cool illustrations and, if you watch the show, some funny quotes:




4.  Coffeetopia up next. Nice layout, nice colours, nice little site:




5.  Lastly this week is Launchlist. This has gained a lot of popularity in the last week for good reason; it’s a sweet looking site that’s also a great product. This one would suit an iPhone app perfectly:



Thanks for checking out week 2. What was your fav site?

Interview with Matt Hamm

Some time last year I interviewed Matt Hamm as I was impressed with his web design and illustration skills. At the time I was writing for an online design magazine which unfortunately didn’t progress into anything so the interview was ditched along with the blog. Recently however, Matt has re-visited my questions and has updated them based on his current work. Here it is, finally, published for all to see.

Garry: Thank you for taking time out to answer some questions Matt.  Firstly please tell us what you are up to right now design wise?

Matt: Currently I’m building a website for nicechart.com a sheet music download website. Lately I’ve been illustrating more characters for http://www.gugafit.com and working on a rather sweet little project called http://www.hivetrader.com.  I have also illustrated a children’s book series recently, which I’m really excited about. http://www.als-pals.co.uk.
