Finally, it has been a while, I can proudly announce that http://www.not-ready.co.uk has had a makeover. If you were wondering why the sudden change of colour here, it is because I have been re-branding and updating the main site with new work. I will be adding stuff to both sites on a more regular basis so keep coming back! Here’s a sneak peak, but hurry over and have a look!

MORE ILLUSTRATIVE TYPE

More work in progress, just started looking at colour… think I prefer it in black and white.

TYPOGRAPHIC!

Posted by Leigh

This is concept for a series of book covers I am working on at the moment. The illustration of the headline will change for each cover depending on the subject matter and the logos will be replaced with relevant illustration. Still work in progress but it’s getting there…

Another bit of film here. Nice video and track here, it is a collaboration between Anthony Burrill, Jack Featherstone and Paul Plowman. Very nice.

MEAT PACKING DISTRICT, BROWN BARS, RIVER OF ICE…

More Copenhagen madness, go on, have a look… The lamp shades are designed by the ultra talented Olafur Eliasson (check him out here: (http://www.olafureliasson.net) who most people will remember form THE WEATHER PROJECT at the Tate Modern in 2003. They were in a bar in the meat packing district called Karriere Bar, which if you are ever in Copenhagen I seriously recommend you check out. More to come soon.

P.S. a brown bar is a local bar that is open pretty much 24 hours a day where people can still smoke inside. I think if the bar is under 40 meters square the smoking ban doesn’t apply…

Very nice bit of work in Basement carpark entrance design, Nike European Headquarters, Hilversum, the Netherlands. ‘MATTE’ are responsible for this as they are for some very nice, very graphical, apparel designs for Nike womans wear. Have a look and see what you think.

DESIGN BY MUSIC

Posted by Leigh

If there was anyone I could work for right now, this second, it would be Manchester based design supremos DEIGN BY MUSIC. I found their website and fell in love. It is a great example of how simple web design can be just as affective as and to the point as any flash based site. A good idea is a good idea and a portfolio should be about the work, not about how crazt the coder went builiding the sire that displays it. So, have a look, I think you’ll like!
