I switch wallpapers every now and then and synchronise them across my OS X and iOS devices. It’s called ‘Rock Salt’ and can be downloaded from Merek Davis’ website here. Any device that lets me capture the scene – in the way I envision it – is fine by me! Where can we find your OS X wallpaper? In this area, I’ve become more pragmatic lately.
CODEKIT LOOK ON MY IPHONE FULL
I like the sense of being actually hand-crafted that I get with this workflow!įor photography, I have a full set of Nikon SLR equipment (D700, D200, lenses, etc.), but I have also started using the iPhone camera more and more. Then, I usually export it to SVG if it’s for the web. From there, I go into Illustrator to vectorise the drawing and finalise the design. Once I’m happy with the design (e.g., a company logo), I fill it in with a thin marker ( Sakura Micron) and scan it into Photoshop where I clean it up.
CODEKIT LOOK ON MY IPHONE PRO
I’ve been reading a lot about using Wacom tablets for digital design, but I have chosen to sketch and draw on paper (stock printing paper) with a pencil ( rOtring rapid PRO 2.0). As a consequence of having the computer inside the printer unit, I’ve finally achieved a (practically) silent operating environment, which has been a long-term goal of mine. Next to it is a large IKEA Galant corner desk which gives me both physical and mental space to work – and it matches the printer unit (I liked the combined workspace so much that I actually named my company “the Desk”). I house the mini along with my all-in-one Epson printer/scanner and all my stationery in an IKEA Galant printer unit. It’s beginning to show its age but I’m getting satisfaction from trimming it in and using it to its lean, clean potential! I pair it with a Dell Ultrasharp U2515H 25” monitor, which I’m very happy with. I’m still using my trusty mid-2011 Mac mini ( base model, dual-core i5 2.3GHz) fitted with 8GB RAM and a 256GB SSD, both from Crucial. I am a passionate media and UI designer, programmer, lecturer, and photographer. When I got back I restarted my web design agency after having lived abroad for several years.

In the last year, I have moved back from Beijing, China (where I was working as an English teacher) to Stockholm, Sweden.

My name is Stefan Elf and I am from Sweden. New setup interviews are posted every Monday follow us on RSS or Twitter to stay up to date. We do these interviews because not only are they fun, but a glimpse into what tools someone uses and how they use those tools can spark our imagination and give us an idea or insight into how we can do things better. Every week we post a new interview with someone about what software they use on their Mac, iPhone, or iPad.
