Website design & marketing collateral for DesignTalks, a community site from SolidWorks.

DesignTalks is a community site aimed at designers – specifically product designers. Alongside a discussion forum and gallery, the site features articles by leading industry figures on a range of hot topics and periodically focusses on a particular theme (like sustainability) or holds competitions.
The brief for the design of the site was open. Although sponsored by SolidWorks and functioning as a form of soft PR, it has no affiliation in branding terms. I wanted to create a site that was fresh, modern, web 2.0; and where aspects like the top banner on the homepage, and the logo itself, could adapt to reflect the site's major theme at any given time.
