About

Welcome to Design Somethin’ (or DS for short).
Just in case you don’t know who I am or what I’m doing here’s the 411. My name is Inder Nagra and DS is my little 365-design project. Kind of like the photography-based 365-projects you see on Flickr, my goal is to design something new everyday for the next 365 days. And to put a little twist on things, I’m gonna have a weekly theme and a time limit 2 hours per design.

Don’t hate if you don’t see a post from me every day. Life will be busy and I may have to upload stuff in bunches. I will design something 365 times in the next 365 days, guarantee it.

Why am I doing this?
The biggest reason is to keep my skills sharp as hell (can hell even be sharp?)! Full-time and freelance work is great but sometimes I feel like I’m designing the same thing over and over again. I’m starting DS to flex my design muscle. If I design something new everyday, I hope I’ll keep my finger on the creative pulse and  stay up-to-date with new design techniques, styles, and theories. And who knows, maybe someone will see this little project and give me a shot at the big times.

Who am I?
I’m a pretty simple dude. I live in a suburb near Vancouver (Go Canucks! Go). I have a Bachelor of Science in Interactive Arts and Technology from SFU. I work full-time as a multimedia designer and do a little freelancing on the side. I play and watch sports and do the gym thang.

Life’s pretty busy and, with this DS project, it’s about to get busier. But I’m up for the challenge.
