Reboot / remodel

My site’s grown organically in all sorts of directions over the last couple of years from its initial portfolio / sandbox function to a blog, then to a blog covering all my different areas of interests.

I think this has made for a rather ungainly and difficult-to-pin-down site, so I’ve decided it’s time for a reboot. Not in terms of visual design as I’m quite happy with that, but rather the UI and IA.

I’m currently working on the new site in a test area and hope to make it available soon. I’ve had fun mocking up the new layout with Balsamiq, which is an amazing wireframing tool for those of you who haven’t heard of it.

My new site will:

  • Provide an easily accessible portfolio area, covering my work in UI and Web design and development
  • Rope off the blog into its own area, with clear routes in from the home page
  • Clearly separate out the content to do with my personal interests
