The focus this year at FOWA was on APIs and Toolkits, with two track stages dedicated to each theme. The day kicked off with an insightful keynote titled “WEB+: CAN THE WEB WIN THE WAR AGAINST NATIVE WITHOUT LOSING ITS SOUL? /my-short-interview-at-fowd/ Sun, 29 Jun 2014 21:58:35 +0000 /my-short-interview-at-fowd/ I gave a short interview at FOWD that was to be a part of an about page for The Future of Web design conference. You can see the video here or read the whole article here /london-web-meet-up/ Wed, 21 May 2014 14:48:14 +0000 /london-web-meet-up/ I did another talk, this time at the London Web meet-up. It was the same talk at FOWD but with some extra info on things I had discovered since (CH & EX units for CSS). The session focused on really making you think as a designer: How has language caused design block? What about the debate on things like skeuomorphic versus flat design? And what are the misconceptions about agile and self-imposed limitations of visual vocabulary? /new-blog-post-on-digital-science/ Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:15:46 +0000 /new-blog-post-on-digital-science/ Just posted up a blog post on The Digital Science website titled “Confessions of a conference speaker“. Its about my path to talking at the Future of Web design conf. Enjoy. /we-are-digital-architects/ Thu, 10 Apr 2014 12:06:25 +0000 /we-are-digital-architects/ I’ve uploaded the slides for my talk that took place at the Future of Web design Conf.

It really opened my eyes to a lot of things, especially the unknown-unknowns such as simple best practice like wrapping an image tag with a figure tag and why we should be using EM’s and not PX unit measurements as newer mobile browsers display based on the pixel density rather than the actual screen width thus breaking our websites. /future-of-web-design-2014/ Thu, 05 Dec 2013 15:06:53 +0000 /future-of-web-design-2014/ It has been an amazing couple of months. Firstly getting my work published in .netmagazine, then seeing it put posted on creativebloq and finally getting invited to speak at Future of Web Design next year. The talk I’ll be giving is titled “We are Digital Architects: Evolving our design language for the web” and will involve some of my ideas about the creative process and how we can embrace it as a journey of discovery, changing our thought process and language along the way. /reasons-to-be-creative/ Fri, 06 Sep 2013 14:11:37 +0000 /reasons-to-be-creative/ I got the chance to head to Brighton for the Reasons to be creative Conference, held once a year, bringing the very best of our industries finest together to 3 days of talks on various topics. The highlight moment for me was the talk by designer hero Erik Spiekermann, writer of Stop Stealing Sheep and Find Out How Type Works and designer of many fonts including FF Meta and more recently Fira Sans.
