Summary of a good year for design :)

I have finished my first year of a design degree at Stockport college.

Most of this blog has been updated with uni work related posts and a few off topic posts.

This year im hoping to absolutely saturate this blog with Uni work, design that interests me and work i have created!!!

And to get the ball rolling here is a website design i recently created for a mobile DJ.

My Igloo, and new house

as a day project I set off to make an igloo in this amazing snow! as a joke I made a facebook group saying i would sleep in it if 500 members joined... and they did so I settled down for a night in my new home.



Building the Igloo !


The finished product


Everyone in the igloo!


Candle light




The best part was how warm it was inside the igloo, you could happily sit in there in just jeans and tshirt as long as you had something like a roll mat to sit on!
