What, still no decent site here?
Yup, still the same old crappy 'temporary' site. Been busy. Working on a new one though, and it will be worth the wait!
Selected work:
BVN
BVN (Beste van Vlaanderen en Nederland) broadcasts the best programs of the Dutch and Belgium public television to Dutch and Belgium natives abroad. Guardstone was very happy to be asked to design their new website!
Top 2000
I was thrilled to be asked to design this year's Top 2000 site, after doing so last year. This time a much fresher look, balanced with notes of holiday warmth and ofcourse a sense of music and records. The design suffered somewhat from the conversion to HTML (here's a peek at the original) but I'm still very happy and proud to see it live!
Radio 2
The new site is live! Guardstone defined the user interface design by creating a detailed click model, which formed the basis for a wonderful graphical interface design by NPO's in-house designer Nanette Smeets.
Z@ppelin
Z@ppelin is the Netherlands Public Broadcasting's children's division. For its new website, Guardstone designed the static pages, as opposed to the Flash part of the site.

Radio 2's Made in the Eighties
Last in the series for this year, the Eighties!
3FM Eindexamen
Students all over the Netherlands are facing their final exams and Holland's smartest radio station is there to help out and make it all a little more fun
with its Final Exams website, a site designed by Guardstone.
Radio 2's Made in the Seventies
Radio 2 is all about Made in the Seventies this week!
Museum Nostalgia
Radio 5, the Dutch public radio station that plays music from the 50's and 60's kicks off their new name, Radio 5 Nostalgia, with a virtual museum
where visitors can submit and talk about objects from their past. Guardstone provided the design.
Museum Nostalgia is now open!
Radio 2's Made in the Sixties
For one week, Radio 2 is all about the Sixties and takes the vibe online with this site I designed based on my work for of last year's Top 2000 site.
The Seventies are up for April and June will see the return of that guilty pleasure I like to call 'The Eighties'!
State TV

Radio 2's Top 2000
The number one radio event in the Netherlands was back in December 2008 for a ten year anniversary and celebrated with a brand new online counterpart.
Guardstone created the visual design, based on a functional design by Michiel Stam of Viewport.
