About me

My name is Alex Gibson and I'm a front–end web developer and designer based in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom. I believe great design is more than just concentrating on aesthetics. It goes right down to the fine details. That means building websites that not only look good, but deliver a rich user experience in the way that they function. The fine details matter, accessibility matters, even often–forgotten things like print style sheets matter.

I care about my markup and write hand-coded, semantic HTML and CSS using web standards. I believe websites should be accessible by everyone. I am also interested in unobtrusive DOM scripting as well as progressive enhancement techniques using CSS3 and HTML5.

I am currently open to offers of work.

About this site

This is an experimental site using HTML5 markup and some CSS3. While some browsers do not support certain features used here, I have taken great care to ensure this site still renders well in older browsers. I have also tried to make sure this site is accessible to as many people as possible. Decorative images are courtesy of Clipart ETC unless otherwise stated.
