Show me the way to Amarillo. Or Belgium.

Quietly launched last week, but now shuffling into a centre-stage position, is the wonderful travel.dk.com from Poke for Dorling Kindersley.
All the usual suspects are there - content browsing, integrated booking with affiliates (with many more partners to come), advertising partners, user-submitted content and comments and ratings. I think we’ve managed to do all of those […]

The Malice Box Quest

New piece for Penguin and one of their lead titles for 2007 called The Malice Box - Poke have just pre-launched the game of the website of the book.
The book is a fast-paced thriller - a bit like the Matrix meets The Da Vinci code - following the main character Robert Reckliss on his quest […]

(Don’t) Pass The Parcel

Inbetween office moves, I also create bits and bobs online like this Christmas Pass The Parcel game for Topshop.
No “big revolutiuonary idea” here - it’s nice and simple and deliberately so. Every parcel layer has a prize, so just play, win and pass onto a friend. There’s a years supply of shoes or clothes up […]

Poke’s new re-furb

Sneaky-peak of Poke’s new offices in the Biscuit Building - the project that’s been keeping me busy (and awake at night increasingly) since January, and more than likely the reason my friends haven’t seen of heard from me in months.
The coloured components i’m particualry pleased with - they’re the cable tray details that normally look […]

Food, Glorious Food

Hot on the heels of Topshop.com comes a brand new site for BBC Good Food Magazine. “So good you want to lick the screen” is how one user described it, and I couldn’t agree more.

Topshop launches …

Almost twelve months in the making, the all-new Topshop.com from Poke came tip-toeing down the catwalk today. We were pretty much done in June with the design work, so it’s really nice to see it finally go live.
Not so obvious on the face of it, is that behind the new look lies a top-to-bottom re-fit […]
