David Henderson Design

Last month I was contacted by Luc Arnold, the founder of Spicy Web Designers and asked to been interviewed for the website. After looking around the site and reconising some of the designers on there, I realised that it was a real privledge to be asked. So I emailed back my interview and the next day I was surprised to see that I was up on the home page. I would encourage any other designers who would like to get in touch with Luc, to do so as he is keen to interview more designers. Check out my interview.

Over the last few months, work has gone into setting up, painting, constructing and...designing my new design space. I was delighted to get set up last Thursday and start a new chapter in the design company. For more photos go to DHD on Facebook.

I was delighted to be awarded the 'Design Award 2008' at the Belfast Art College Degree Show on Monday night. I was chosen by my design Tutors, Chris Murphy and Nicklas Persson from the many other final year Interactive Multimedia Design students. Professor Ian Montgomery presented me with an ipod Touch, I am thrilled to have received this prize.

My Major Project, the Best of Belfast was launched this week. I have been working at for the last 3 to 4 months. The project aims to advertise Belfast in a new and exciting way, using motion graphics. The film and website is based around the past, present and future of Belfast.

The exciting, new launch of the Vantage Seating System with Delta Airlines and engineering firm, Thompson Solutions, meant that both companies got coverage from T.V, Radio and Newspaper. I was happy to see the BBC News Website also had a write up on the story, and even more delighted when I saw a sample of my 3D work next to the article!

Aircraft Interiors International Magazine recently published an article for Delta Airlines on the new Cozy Suite, designed by Thompson Solutions. This 3-page article had a number of my renders featured, including a full A4 picture of the seat. Not only does this magazine have a world wide audience, it is one of the most popular editions as it is released just before the European Expo.

A full page advert was placed in the Northern Ireland vs. Bulgaria Match on the 6th February for Simpson Overseas. As the properties were being sold in Bulgaria, Mr Simpson had the bright idea of buying the domain roadtobulgaria.com, this then re-directed you to his website. The design is very simple but I was pleased to have my work official programme.
