Where creative’s work 04

Here are the latest workstations submitted by our followers.

We believe that a good working environment is important. You spend more time here than anywhere else.

We are conducting an experiment on http://www.flickr.com/hkcreative. We are intrigued to see if there is a difference between a creative and a non-creative’s workstation.

This post is a continuation of a series of posts about workstations. We’ve asked our followers to submit photo’s of their workstations, feel free to do the same, point your emails at hkcreative@live.com

Creative Knowledge 04

This is the latest in a series of posts about knowledge sharing.

We like keyboard shortcuts and have complied a list of our favourite OSX quick keys.

Point your suggestions at karsten@hkcreative.co.uk Drag and drop the image onto your destop, refer to it twice in one working week and it will stick.

We will be adding more shortcuts so check back soon.

Refer back to our previous post for a guide to the icons used in the table below.

What creative’s read 03

We’d like to recommend another book. Getting it right with type, Victoria Squire is a book that offers an introduction to the basics of typography and is primarily aimed at junior designers. It’s a solid platform to start from and good to have the essentials under your belt.

This is the latest of a series of posts about knowledge sharing.

We like working effectively and have begun compiling a list of our favourite keyboard shortcuts which we will share in a forthcoming post.

We thought posting this guide on keyboard menu symbols would be a good place to start.

What creative’s read 02

Whilst we’re on the topic of good books, we want to share one of our favourites.

How to be a graphic designer, without losing you soul, by Adrian Shaughnessy.

The lessons learned from this book are valuable, it contains advice on finding a job, setting up a studio, managing clients and the creative process.

Recommend a book hkcreative@live.com

Adrian Shaughnessy is a contributor on the Design Observer’s blog.

What creative’s read 01

I finished reading Verbal Kung Fu for freelancers Master the Art of Defense Against difficult clients, by Jeremy Tuber, over Easter.

It’s short and informative. It’s full of valuable pointers that help designer’s build the confidence and framework to handle themselves in the professional environment. It’s not a collection of snappy comebacks, but educates the reader how to effectively manage difficult situations with clients. I’d recommend it to any aspiring designer.

It’s avaible by book, iPhone & the trendy Kindle.

Jeremy Tuber also has a blog.
