Design Grotto: April 2009
http://designgrotto.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 27 April 2009. Bleep Moo. Oink. I heard this great idea the other day. Someone said wouldn't it be great if the tills at the supermarket checkout made different noises depending on what item was being scanned? Maybe it could actually work on a serious note. A little marketing prop. So say for a brand like 'Green Giant' sweetcorn, they have their own recognized jingle. So when one of their products is scanned it could be in the tune to 'Ho ho ho. Green Giant'. Saturday, 25 April 2009. I'm sure it ...

Design Grotto: On the toilet
http://designgrotto.blogspot.com/2009/12/on-toilet.html
Wednesday, 30 December 2009. Well following on from my previous post, I did indeed get a Hu2 sticker. For my toilet for Christmas! Thus I thought I would share with you my now new and improved toilet. I must admit I never expected to be blogging about my bathroom throne. After seeing a sticker in action I am definitely interested in ordering some of their wall stickers and I suggest you do too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bedford, United Kingdom.

Design Grotto: July 2009
http://designgrotto.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 July 2009. Let's dance to Joy Division. Now I'm not much of a music buff so excuse my ignorance. I have recently discovered the, errr, joys of 'Joy Division'. Now I knew nothing of front man Ian Curtis or anything about them (as I say please, please excuse my ignorance). I'd only heard the reference to the band ('. Let's dance to Joy Division. In the lyrics of another band, The Wombats. Ian Curtis died, May 1980, age 23. Anyway brightening the mood back up again. I'm loving the music! Joy Di...

Design Grotto: Sky(walkers)
http://designgrotto.blogspot.com/2010/01/skywalkers.html
Thursday, 14 January 2010. For their Spring/Summer collection, Adidas has teamed up with Star Wars to create a pretty cool collection of footwear and apparel. Now I am a Star Wars geek, so am somewhat biased, but I think some of these trainers are awesome! Http:/ ricesociety.wordpress.com/2009/12/22/adidas-x-star-wars/. From a design point of view I think it's really interesting how a set of colours and elements on a shoe can immediately have connotations of a character out of a film.

Wednesday, 26 August 2009. Following on from previous posts, about my first camping experience at Glastonbury and my proposed camping trip to the Monaco Grand Prix, I recently enjoyed a fantastic weekend camping trip to the Lake District. I work next to Punk Publishing who produce books including the '. Series. So, not to spurn this opportunity for campsite research, I set about looking for prospective locations for a weekend away that me and a friend had planned. We eventually decided on. Promote your P...

Friday, 27 November 2009. All I want for Christmas. A couple of nice little sites for some quirky Christmas present ideas for those who like something a little different. I love finding original and cool items that nobody else I know will have or even seen before. Below are a couple of sites I have come across recently:.

Design Grotto: June 2009

Thursday, 11 June 2009. If you have never listened to. Before, I suggest you put that right. In particular the. Weekdays from 10am-1pm. It's pure genius. Loved by the country's Graphic Designers and Dancehall enthusiasts, the Sony award winning show is a fusion of mayhem and complete and utter randomness. View it on the site here. Tuesday, 9 June 2009. Now it took me a little while to 'get'. Now I don't think I'll ever be a professional Twitterer, just a casual one. It's quite fun to follow a 'celebr...
