Bumper Collection, Art of Asia, Africa, America…

At 2005 I designed and built one of Nik Douglas’s fabulous online projects, http://www.bumpercollection.com which is also one of my biggest projects online by the number of the pages (more than 250 pages).

Nik Douglas was born at 1994 in Yorkshire, England. He studied ancient cultures, archaeology, anthropology, religions and mythologies, specializing in Egyptology, ancient art, symbolism and occult/paranormal phenomena. He visited all the world: Different countries in Europe, India, Nepal, Thailand, Indonesia, U.S.A, Caribbean Islands and more.

There’s a lot to write and tell about Nik’s creations and accomplishments, but I won’t save on words emphasising the privilege for me to work for him. I am honored to work with Nik Douglas since 2003 on his great creations and books and I wish every graphic designer had such an interesting and inspiring client such as Nik.

The Cyber Gallery you are entering is an exhibition of objects collected over many years that demonstrate the extraordinary beauty of sculptures, masks, and paintings produced by many cultures over a long expanse of human history. Although they necessarily reflect the taste and preferences of the collector, they demonstrate and create an awareness of line and form that would satisfy almost any lover of art. Along with music, language and science, art is a demonstration of imagination and intelligence that expresses so manifestly what it is to be human.

These objects also are about life and cultures that grew from the mind of mankind as life on the planet expanded over the vast time horizons that led us to the beginnings of the 21st century. Some objects are from the immense continent of Africa where the human experiment began. Others were made along the greatest of the trade routes – The Silk Road – that introduced and blended cultures from West to East and from East to West, across Europe and the vast Asian continent. Still others are from the Americas, over the land bridge that brought humans to the northern regions of Canada down to the southern expanses of Patagonia.

Every eye and every mind will experience art in a different way – beauty is, indeed, in the eye of the beholder. In doing so, we should try to examine and enjoy the boundaries that separate us and make us different, while at the same time we acknowledge the universal inspirations that bind us and make us so similar. We are of unparalleled diversity while being part of the same species. An awareness and appreciation of the artistic creations of our fellow humans is a wonderful way to understand that our shared interests and future promise lie in an enthusiastic celebration of our open-ended individuality.

New design and photos for Les Belles Yacht

The luxury motor yacht Les Belles was completed by renowned yacht builders Gulcraft in Ajman, UAE. She has a semi-displacement hull and can reach speeds in excess of 22 knots. Les Belles was designed by Dutch naval architect Frank Mulder of Mulder design and the interior was styled by London based Evan K. Marshall.

She has a range of 3000nm, state of the art navigation systems, global communications, an extensive entertainment system, and all the comforts you would expect from a modern luxury yacht.

New design for Tropical Paradise

I have been living in Anguilla (BWI) since September, 2002. I moved to this Tropical Paradise after living in France for 35 years, 30 of them in Paris and 5 more in Bordeaux.

I left France because I needed to travel and experience the things I have always dreamed of. Ever since I was a young boy I wanted to meet different people and discover different cultures and languages.

Together with Tal, my wife, I have created this website (more than 300 pages with over 1 000 stunning photos) and the Tropical Paradise newsletter to share this wonderful island with you. You will learn and see amazing information about beaches, hotels, ”Jazz on the Beach”, the Arawak Indians, live web cams from Anguilla and other spots that I have visited during the time I have been here. I am also a passionate Kite surfer and have created a kite surfing adventure category within the site, where you can get free kite surfing tips and wind reports.

Launched in 2003 with Tal, this successful website now receives 15 000 unique visitors and 45 000 page checks every months…
