    It's been about 3 years since I've made any major changes to my branding or portfolio site. Over those years I've grown as a designer, developer and most importantly as a person, I want my new branding and site to reflect this growth.

    I'm very proud of the work I've put into the design and development of this site and feel it shows off my style and skill.

    ‪‪What I've learnt the most from working on this is to step back from the screen, be inspired by the world and people around you, then to take that inspiration and use it in your work

      Looking really good! What did you use to build the site? Looks like it's not using a CMS?

        Hey Matt

        Thank you for the kind words!

        Everything here is HTML & Sass, I use my own grunt build set-up to compile each page via components that make up each layout e.g every page has a head so I include that and pass variables to change things such as the title and description. So I use these for things such as the navigation and footer, think of them as includes in PHP but done via Grunt on build.

        Would be interested if anyone would like me to explain this further in a blog post?

        Yo!

        You're welcome.

        Yes, I'm in Leeds, running a small company called Pocketworks that does mobile shizzle.

        Coffee is a great idea sometime, where you based?

    Would be nice for an easier way to go back and view work without having to mash the back button a bunch of times.

    Otherwise, good site.

      Thanks, Joe!

      You'd like an extra way to get back to the work page from the case studies other than the navigation bar? A nice little button at the bottom with "Back to work" maybe?
