It’s just about that time of year: the time for fresh new beginnings, baby animals being born (ohhh, how cuuuute), and our favorite: spring cleaning!
1. I’ve been sweeping up around Google, and finding link backs (even from way, way back) for BWD. Here are some of the very kind awards and features we’ve been given.
What I enjoy most are not just the features themselves, but the other sites BWD is placed next to. Thank you very much!

2. Blog What? Design will be acquired by a new company in the coming months. I have decided to go ahead with a few members of my team here at BWD and create a new media company to act as an umbrella for all sorts of ventures. BWD will still continue to run in its existing form… but will be slightly revamped in terms of its design and business structure. Look forward for some exciting new ventures and projects from Media Plate Studios!
Also: around five new projects long overdue to be in the portfolio section!
