The Bespoke Pixel, representing me, Mark Griffiths, offers a unique blend of design, branding and media technology skills.

I design and develop high quality, craft-led software and digital media, produce digital audio, video and photography, write music, design and build hardware and networks and have a deep understanding of how it all works.

Using my knowledge, experience and intuition for human/machine interaction, I identify the best approach for my clients that fit the limitations of the project, as, lets be honest, all projects are limited somewhere; be it budget, deadline, audience, type of software and hardware already deployed, target device and so on...

Much of my best work has come about from taking a strategic view and extending existing brands into the digital realm using technologies such as Quicktime and Flash to deliver a memorable experience.

My design ethos is simple:

  • Why have many controls when one will do.
  • Refactor and simplify until it's as little as it needs to be as anything more is too much.
  • If something is working right, then you shouldn't notice it working at all.
