Designs by Laighlin

About the Dev

The name's Lin (which is short for Lindeun or Laighlin, depending on where you know me from). I'm a 24-year-old South Asian design student with a tech sort of background and a lot to say about the trends and direction of the contemporary design world.

I wanted to be an engineer for most of my life. By the time I changed my mind about that, my liaison with the applied sciences had drastically altered my worldview already. This still informs much of my work and work ethic - design is no less of a science in my eyes than physics or computing. (In other words, I like design as long as I can be a nerd about it.)

Skills

A good grasp of object-oriented programming and computing-related math as a whole. Proficient in CSS3 and HTML5; making significant inroads into JavaScript and JQuery. Adobe Illustrator is both enjoyable for me and putty in my hands. Putty. In addition to my knowledge of coding, I also speak five human languages and am in the process of learning a few more.

Hobbies & Interests

Small indie coding projects (semi-professionally). Music (unprofessionally). Massively multiplayer online games (clumsily). Cooking (hungrily).

Currently Working On

An accessibility app for Android, a couple of desktop themes for a blogging platform I casually use, and a photography project detailing the interplay of natural and artifical in urban environments.
