Hello! My name is Allen and I create things. I'm currently based in Auckland, working full-time as a User Interface developer. I'm also into startup projects.

My forte is creating beautiful UI and bringing it to life via HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. I strongly believe that great ideas come from passion, hard work, exploration and above all having fun! Check out my work below; don't forget to say hi on Twitter!

My work's just a click away.

Designing for the screen is a passion. In 2009 I worked for a marketing agency called The Hyperfactory. My creative efforts were applied to projects for global brands like Coca-Cola, Kraft, Disney and L’Oreal.

While there I fell in love with coding and designing for smartphones and tablets.

Every business needs a brand. Throughout my journey as a designer I continue to work with start-ups and companies looking for a new or an updated corporate identity. I enjoy talking about business concepts, visualizing them and bringing them to reality.

Print more than just ink on paper. It’s tangible media. Whether it’s an extensive catalogue or a one-page ad, print is an immense resource to any business. It’s always been a huge aspect of visual communication and will continue to be so for a very long time to come.

For a long while LoveColour was an online 'brand' which I used to identify myself and my work, while looking for various online clients. Later on I built a site around it and it became my portfolio. When I'm not doing client work I develop various personal projects. One of them is Power Gift - the very unique social
reverse auction site. It features cool products that users can share on Facebook. Each time someone shares a product, its price is decreased by a random amount. Take a look. I also enjoy going for a jog and playing football as a way of keeping fit.
