Design presentation for Prema Yoga mobile app.
Prema Yoga is a boutique yoga studio run by a single teacher, focusing on private lessons and some group lessons.
As the service offerings are limited, the app navigation & functionality have been designed to be minimal and simple.
At the same time the app is designed with plenty of affordance through conventions and usability to assure ease of use for the target audience.
Pre-release information site for PlayStation Portable game “Jewel Summoner”.
One of the last content developed for Sony Computer Entertainment Japan. All contents are designed as module, so changing and modifying contents can be achieved with few lines of code change.
At the time of site release, there were limited amount of information ready for public, so the challenge was to communicate the unique world of “Jewel Summoner” with given material.

PlayStation 2 game website designed for Sony Computer Entertainment Japan.
“Wonder” was the new game by popular game designer Fumito Ueda, and expectations were high.
The concept of the game was to explore the vast wasteland, find and destroy moving colossus by crumbing up to them. Apart from the main character “Wonder” and his horse, the colossus, there are hardly no living apart from occasional appearance of small animals. It has a very unique dream like feel.
Given the constrain of small size monitors back then, the scale and experience of fighting with colossus was best communicated by including a lot of videos from actual games.

Since the customer was a member of film industry I added pseudo 3D navigation that represented screens in multiple place, as well as providing standard hierarchical navigation.
I have enjoyed designing this work, and client was very happy with the final product.
A personal website for an artist to exhibit his photos.
The artist request was to be able to update the contents himself but he had no knowledge of Flash or web. A XML driven Flash website was developed to meet the original request.
This website is capable of adding content or editing text just by editing XML and adding photos.

Developed for Sky as the first interactive TV content for New Zealand. Limiting interactivity to that able to be accessed by a TV remote, and designing for the TV audience who can be non-computer literate was a challenge.
Received Craft Award at 2002 TUANZ interactive design awards.
