A few recently completed projects. The list never gets too long before the oldest examples end up in the archives

Front-line golf villa at Desert Springs is looking to build links


We've just completed a new web site for Los Saguaros, a luxury front-line golf villa overlooking the second tee on the Peter Mcevoy designed Indiana course at Desert Springs in Almeria, Spain. This golf resort is the closest thing you'll get to Arizona-style desert golfing in Europe.

The site has been designed to make it simple for the owners of Los Saguaros - John and Penny Stuart - to update themselves.

Apart from taking bookings they're keen to build links to the site from other golf related sites. So if you know of anyone who would welcome a reciprocal link from this stunning villa, please get in touch.

Capital ideas for Land Securities

Mike has recently been working on the launch of Land Securities' new identity, which went live in January. As well as working on elements of the identity itself, Mike wrote and edited the internal and external versions of the brand guidelines, and wrote the new 'Values Book', a piece that's sent to anyone who represents the brand - from employees to property agents.

Mike has also written the updated version of Land Securities hardback book covering all its London properties and developments, which are gathered under the umbrella of 'Capital Commitment'. The book has been turned into a website, www.capitalcommitment.co.uk, for Mike edited his own copy from the printed book.

Cover of book relating to Breeches of London bylaws that are still technically in force

Not content with all that, Mike also worked on the new Capital Commitment ad campaign, currently appearing in London. The campaign highlights obscure and bizarre London bylaws and regulations that are technically still in force, as a way of demonstrating Land Securities' unusually detailed knowledge of the capital.

Land Securities' marketing work has become something of a cause celebre in the design world, since the client decided only to work with designers new to the property sector. Many award-winning pieces have been produced over the last few years, and they're now being archived in a special 'Portfolio' website. You won't be surprised by now to learn that Mike is writing this new, and voluminous, online resource.

New speakers are the cat's whiskers


Mike has recently completed his first job for new client Bowers & Wilkins, makers of what are probably the finest loudspeakers money can buy. (Usually rather a lot of money.) They're the speakers of choice for music aficionados and studios around the world - including Abbey Road, who have been using them for over 20 years.

Mike's first job was to write the copy for an interactive exhibition pod at the forthcoming Geneva Motor Show. The pod announces Bowers & Wilkins' new partnership with Jaguar - their first move into in-car audio. The showcase system has been created for the Jaguar C-XF concept car, and completely revolutionises in-car sound.
