AJS Designs

Welcome to my blog. Here I will show off some of my work and talk about bits of art, design and advertising that I find interesting in some way or another!

This is the poster we ended up going with, its nothing especially glamourous, but lets people know the opening times and prices we have on offer. I’ll be working a bit more on some more individual pieces to get up for facebook events.
I’m not sure if its the angle of the curve on the top text, but for some reason the whole thing just reminds me of Heinz Baked Beans.

First draft of a poster I was doing for The Blue Note Jubilee Weekend. Unfortunately we chose not to use it as it isnt really with the feel of the club anymore. Based off of the Sex Pistols “God Save the Queen” record cover, but with up to date image of the Queen.
Basicly we desided it was too dark, and refered too much to Punk/Rock/Alt music, which the club sadly doesnt play anymore since needing to go more mainstream to keep customers.

My latest icons for Shapcotts Accountants’ Monthly Newsletter.

The 1st image is of the Crown of England surrounded by diamonds for an article on the extra Bank Holiday we get in 2012 thanks to the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee (Hurray!)

The second is a credit card flying quickly… as the HMRC now accept faster payments.

The 3rd image is meant to be an iPhone 4, but honestly most smart phones are looking so genericly similar these days it could be a number of different ones!

The 4th image is from a previous newsletter, about tax timebombs. (The HMRC are going back and retroactively fining people who potentially avoided/didn’t realise they owed tax).
