Welcome!
Welcome to kaijaks.co.uk, the home page for Nick Kaijaks, on the Web since 1994.
You'll find a mix of information, links and background information here. There's a menu of
sections at the head of each page.

What's Here
- Blog
- Well, it would be rude not to... Go to the blog.
- Biography
- My day job is information design manager for
Warwick Business School. I still work freelance as an information
designer for print and Web. Whether you're a potential customer,
an old friend or just a regular surfer, you can find out all
about who wrote this stuff.
Music, Latvia, fine wine, penguins, other interests and the usual
eclectic links.
- Pinxit Design
- Details of the services offered by
Pinxit Design, my consultancy for
information design - or as I sometimes call it: 'thoughtful design'. Whatever you call it,
Pinxit Design produces elegant, aesthetic and functional graphic design and copywriting
for both print and Web. See some portfolio and philosophy
as well as some more about what exactly is information design.
- PhD
- Wearing my chartered physicist hat, my doctoral thesis
in semiconductor surface physics
from the University of Warwick is available online.
- IT
- I'm an experienced user of a broad range of computer technologies.
In the design business I work with RISC OS workstations and
Windows XP PCs for page layout and illustration. I've set up a small
linux server to look after mail, file storage and stuff like that at home.
I've been online since 1991 and designing for the Web since 1993
(when Mosaic was hot!). My IT page
is therefore pretty broad, featuring software I've written and a
variety of external links that I find useful.
- Ros
- My wife, Ros, has her own slice of space on the Web.
- Jessica
- My daughter, Jess, does not yet have a slice of space, since she takes up so much
of my blog already...
