I have recently left my job at QVC shopping channel, to take up the role as a web designer in the marketing team at Datamonitor. Below are some of the work I have done at QVC
Just finished work on a new website last week for a new up and coming Interior Decorator and Artist Sunita Hoorpah. The site uses a clean and minimalistic style to tell the user what Sunita is about and to showcase her talents. I have already started looking at the future of the site and how to further develop it using wordpress behind the scenes to power it. You can visit the site here www.sunitahoorpah.com

First post of 2010, so I decided to try creating Bokeh effects in Photoshop. Bokeh is the blur in photography, or the artistic quality of the blur, or the way a camera shows out of focus points of light. I came across a video tutorial, so once I learnt the basics, I played about with different techniques, putting my own variation on it.

Over the Christmas period I upgraded my WordPress to version 2.9, I didn’t realise that it broke half my site, not allowing users to post comments and removing my sidebar with all my nice little widgets. So as an emergency, I have put up a basic framework, which I will start to design in the new year. The site is going to look a bit plain for the time being but should be a good experience building a new one, as my WordPress and coding skills have come a long way in the last year.

I don’t really consider myself a photographer, but do love taking pictures when I see something interesting and when I go away on holiday. I also don’t own a digital camera, most of the time I just use my mobile which does a good enough job to capture the moment. With some of the photos I take, I like to play about with them in photoshop to see what effect I can get.
I decided to brush up on my Illustrator skills, so I did a number of tutorials, mainly based on icon designs which I found on http://vector.tutsplus.com/. Having done theses, I’m going to start producing my own vector work both icons and illustrations. Read the rest of this entry »

I went through my computer the other night, and found some old 3D work I did back when I was at university. So I got myself a Vimeo account and uploaded some of the animations I done. Most of this work is 8-9 years old now, so I often wonder where my skill level would had I continued it. Read the rest of this entry »
I have been working at QVC shopping channel (UK) for nearly a year and a half now, and have used the opportunity to not only expand my CSS and XHTML, but also my Photoshop skills. Working alongside the photography department sometimes required photo retouching. A lot of this was self taught, but the company also sent the design team on a PS advanced course.

This site is designed and styled by me, Rishi Luchun. I live in Northamptonshire, England and currently work for Informa in London as a Web Designer, as well as doing my own thing on the side.
I describe myself as a Graphic and Web Designer as my background are both Print and Web, but always exploring new areas of design. I also like to dabble in Photography, and Motion Graphics is something I would like to get involved in.
