Founded in 2005 by an ever growing group of young designers and vagabonds eager to collect and share the best design work they came across, FormFiftyFive soon became an international showcase of creative work.
Although the site was doing a great job at sparking creativity, we felt it could, and should, be even bigger and better. So we spent many moons working on a brand new FormFiftyFive, still high in eye (and brain) candy, but with a brand new look and lots of new features that dig even deeper into what’s happening in the design community.
We’ve also added more interactive elements on the site so people can exchange and store ideas more easily, encouraging collaboration and making the site more than just another design blog.
So have a look round, if you see something you love or hate be sure to comment, and drop us a line if there’s a juicy bit of creative gold you’d like to see on here.
Keep it real, the FFF team.

Chris told me about this incredible 16 year 15 year old female photographer who has already worked for the BBC, the Independent, the Guardian and Dazed & Confused. Her name is Eleanor Hardwick, check out her flickr stream as her portfolio doesn’t really do her work any justice.

Aye, spotted her a couple of weeks ago – I almost fell off my chair when I found out she was only 16. Enough to make you give up, really!

‘born in Oxford, England in 1993\’. Seriously. That makes me feel physically sick, I was hoping she was born in a leap year and was actually 60.

I think everyone will feel have a bit of a ‘gulp’ moment when they see her work! Just need to get a nice simple site built for her. It’s quite funny when you look at her really ‘old’ work (from when she was 12), you can see a clear development of her style!

I posted about a talented lass on DM today, who actually says on her bio, “In 1991 Megan Baker was still in her mother’s uterus”. Her work is really nice and manages to make me feel both inferior and very old at the same time. No longer is it just 3rd year graduates making me feel awful, it’s 6th Formers and GCSE students…
