Working with Mr. Youth I make a branding concept guide for Bing's new Social Search.
Exploring type, philosphy, technical usage of brand imagery and color... a cohesive identity is made.
Bing wanted to explore social media, and a a revamp of it's own landing pages.
Bing's ability to integrate the social data is powerful and many more impressive features continue to emerge. It's promising to see how the search engine is adaptive and focused on users over rankings and investor wants.

Spotlight is a really unique & personal section for the locations & indivuduals it features.
I was suprised at how undeveloped it was in the first issue I worked on. This second iteration was stronger, & really captured the geographical information without overshadowing the story teller.
Art Direction, design, UI/UX.

I recommend signing up for it!

As a regular customer & supporter it's an honor to build out a Wordpress CMS & do the Creative directiona nd production for their new social media presence.
Elizabeth Stauber is a professional stylist with discriminating taste. Imagine my suprise when an Art Director at Lippman Agency called me to design + build her site.
Running on Jquery with a full width autoscrolling thumbnail browser, makes for an elegant modern browser experience, that cuts to the chase & champions the work.
HWKN architects & Matthias Ernstberger needed some tall requests for their Micro Site.
Full screen slideshows just for background fun, Vertical & horizontal centered main navigation that resizes with the browser, & a lot of smooth animated 'flash like' features. Good thing jQuery is WAY better than flash. I went to work designing the experience & enhancing it, so users didn't have to leave the site to browse exterior content.
Live event art installation with Francis Mao. A real honor to kick it with the Capcom crew.
I even put a couple licks on Seth Killian's head, the Capcom Community manager, who the Super Villain Final Boss depicts in Street Fighter IV. Fight Club + Capcom
Orderberry is proving to be the largest application design for me yet.

Given away at various locations.
High quality CMYK kiss cut prints.
The design work went on to serve as artist introduction images on several media types.
Art Direction, & invitation material design for Las Vegas based apaprel trade show "M.A.G.I.C."
Pepsi's Mountain Dew faces a dilemma when they roll out limited edition artists bottles, known as the Green Label Art series, each year: "How do people find these things?"
One solution: give the power to the users to track these things down, record their location on Google Maps via twitter, and even share photos of the found bottles.
To make it even more accurate, the map's location pin uses the artists bottle cited found at the location. So before you even click on it, you already know at least one of the types of bottles you may or may not want (need? :) ) to locate
Social media powered maps, images & conversation gave users the ability to find Green Label Art Products + Events. This helped other Dew fans connect & make purchases all across the globe.
This site garnered over 250,000 unique visits in a week.
Art Direction, Graphic Design.
This event was captured via a large LCD display + destination microsite powered by twitter + flickr. The first of it's kind.
Users off site from the event, communicate directly from the destination page
Event attendees can skip checking twitter for updates & use reference the large display to easily keep the conversation rolling & the live event in focus.
