This happy little website serves as a testing ground and play area for me. While the content is always 'real', the design and functionality vary from time to time as I often play with ideas here. I do so on a 'live' site so as to encourage myself to make the changes quickly.
Hoping to recycle a used girl’s bike into a gift for a young boy, I decided to see what I could do to convert what was a very pink and frilly bicycle into something meaner, tougher and more ‘street’.
The end result, following a bit of black, matte spray paint and some duct tape pleased me. I left the tires pink, not only as a nod to the bike’s heritage, but also as an acknowledgment that we should not let our preconceived notions of gender and color go unchecked.
