The web, design and front‑end dev

I’m Martin, an interaction designer, front-end development and co-founder of Frontend NE. I write about the web, accessibility and inclusive, user-centred design. Here’s some more about me and what I’m up to.

Writing

If you prefer to dive straight in rather than see the full blog, here are a couple of my most recent articles to get you started.

  1. Pixels, constraints, minimalism and tempertemper

    As a designer, I thrive on constraints; as a minimalist, I enjoy boiling something down to its essence. Happily, my brand now allows room for pixel art.

  2. Even the finest of details can be important

    Since my post on refining my brand I’ve encountered a tiny issue where, with a circular crop, the underscore is too close to the edge of the circle.

Subjects

There are a few topics that really interest me:

  • Accessiblity is about designing and building web interfaces that can be used by anyone, something I feel very strongly about.
  • Designing smart, usable interfaces, journeys and interactions is what I do best, and I enjoy analysing others’ great design.
  • Front-end development is a huge passion of mine; HTML and CSS in particular, but anything from Git to Gulp.
