Hello.
My name is Nick Welsh and I run a graphic design and web design studio based in Cambridge, UK.
I love designing for print, whether it’s brochures, advertising, stationery or creating distinctive brand identities. I also design and build great-looking, search engine-friendly websites which can incorporate all the latest social media tools like Twitter and blogging.
I’m quick, efficient and full of ideas, which makes me the perfect partner for you and your business.
This blog will run alongside my company website which can be found at www.monoindustries.com
If you are a Twitter user, you can follow me at www.twitter.com/mononick
Posts will hopefully be regular and cover all aspects of design, art, the web, photography, technology, music and probably many other things too.
I hope you enjoy your visits.
Stunning handmade bicycles from Bertelli, New York City. This is my favourite; Domenica. I particularly like the solid wooden handlebar and the vintage leather Brooks saddle. Gorgeous. See more here: http://www.bertellibici.com
In Los Angeles, James Perse provides a platform to build a custom vintage-style beach cruiser (pictured above) — a quintessentially Californian bicycle typically seen meandering along the Venice boardwalk and down through Santa Monica. The James Perse Cruiser, available in a variety of colours, is instantly recognisable with its fat tyres, wide handlebars and soft, cushy saddle perfect for cruising along the beach with your surfboard in tow.
Republic Bike invites you to custom-build bicycles based on shared designs — choose from an array of colours for the frame, saddle, grips, chain, rims, tires and crank. Who says your front tyre can’t be yellow, while your back tyre is pink? Ever dreamed of having a blue bike frame with red handle grips and a white saddle? Republic can make this dream a reality. The Aristotle is a singles peed bicycle with a fixed/free hub. Typically a fixed gear bicycle does not allow a rider to coast as the rear cog continually spins. But Republic has made it possible to shift from fixed to free if coasting is your thing.
And finally, there’s a Japanese company called Pedalmafia, a place to build a 1/9 scale bicycle, the Pedal ID, not quite the bike to ride around town but cool nevertheless. The website allows you to choose practically every part of a fixed-gear bike in many different color combinations. Pedalmafia has also teamed up with Yamamoto, one of Japan’s largest toy/model makers, and provided the basic component set along with optional accessories to create the perfect bespoke bicycle. - Andrew J Wiener.

This is my bike. I really really like it and I thought you might like to see it. It's called a Plug and it's made by a British company called Charge.
