I'm Scott Forbes, a designer, front-end engineer and artist living and working in Edinburgh, Scotland. I've worked on the web across agency, freelance, start-up & client-side.

Currently I work for Tesco looking after the customer journey, usability and creative direction of the Tesco Bank website and other online presences.

When I'm not involved in web stuff I spend a lot of my time doing DIY which I "love"... I also went to art school and continue to harbour an urge to pick up my paintbrushes again, although this is something which is proving much more difficult than the DIY...

I like nothing better than spending time high up in the Austrian Tirol taking in the views, drinking some creamy heiße Schokolade, eating ghoulashen suppe - oh and diving downhill on a pair of ski's.

However, life took a bizarre turn this year when we found ourselves with a baby on our hands... So that put paid to the DIY and the urge to pick up those brushes for the meantime!

Live-N-Learn provide motivational training workshops for both schools and businesses throughout the UK. The live-n-learn team were keen that the design of the site would be fresh and appealing, and that it did not reflect peoples sometimes stuffy impression of the education world.

They also needed a site which could be easily maintained and updated by their own staff.

An artist living and working in Dundee, Delia required an online presence to showcase her art more widely and to provide biographical information to galleries and art collectors alike. She was also keen that work could be grouped, and viewed 'in-context' as a larger body of work.

The site uses a subtle, simple design which aims to mirror the gallery experience, and to ensure that the art is presented in a complimentary way.

Over the years we've changed. Here's a couple of older versions of this site, for nostalgia...
