Hyper-who?

A photograph of Simon Griffee, aka Hypertexthero, taken in the summer of 2005 at Bryant Park, New York City.

Hypertexthero is a small design agency specializing in usable, high quality web and graphic design. I’m Simon Griffee, the pilot!

I learned about computers while hacking MS/DOS to make games run in the early 1990s. After completing a Creative Advertising Design degree from Bournemouth University in 1999, I realized that the majority of things are not very good at all and certainly not worth the effort spent to convince other people to buy them.

I taught myself graphic design and HTML and worked in small internet start-ups and large companies. After a short time I decided that commuting to and spending every week day in an office were not what I wanted to live for. Rather, I wanted to work more comfortably and travel more often, so Hypertexthero came to be.

I am passionate about the internet which I believe to be one of humanity’s greatest inventions. I am most delighted when doing worthwhile design work for good clients and when photographing. I record interesting sites I come across in my internet travels in the Logbook.

How about you? Think we can work together? Just want to say hello? Your correspondence is appreciated!
