Hello.
Thanks for stopping by. Maybe you're visiting because you read my article in the inaugural issue of Distance, in which case I am pleased. Maybe you're here from following a link from my Twitter, LinkedIn, or about.me profile, welcome. Here are some things to see while I develop my new site.
Design Counsel
I provide strategic insight and advice about improving your business using design. I can show you how different kinds of design improve different aspects of your business and how you can design change and innovation into your company's culture.
Portfolio
This is my old portfolio, a selection of my work up to 2007 or so. It's a collection of web, print, and environmental work. Designed, developed and directed during my time at Vancouver Public Library and in my freelance projects.
Jettison Canopy
Writing up to the middle of last year. Various items about design, libraries, and software. If you thought my Distance essay was long, I've got some software analysis here that makes that look like a Hemingway short story.
Jon Whipple, CGD
A lifetime ago I worked in architectural firms as a presentation artist, and a draftsman. I roofed houses in Arizona in the summer. I ran a building maintenance company and cleaned toilets all night long. But that was then. Now, I'm a Professional Member of The Society of Graphic Designers of Canada. I love design. I live in Vancouver, British Columbia and spend most of my waking hours thinking about design, designing things and making the things I think about and design. I drink coffee. I want to make things better.
