Hello there…

and welcome to my website.

I’m Dan Ramsden.

I currently work as a content manager at The Workshop in Sheffield. The Workshop is one of the UK’s top design agencies.

I specialise in imagining, writing and creating content for communication and learning. At The Workshop I’ve worked on projects for organisations like DWP, Morrisons, Parliament Education Service, Sheffield Hallam University and the BBC.

Before joining The Workshop I worked for Dead Earnest Theatre. Dead Earnest use live performance techniques for teaching, training and behavioural change. I carried out research into non-linear narratives and how stories can be used to change the way we think, feel and behave. I’m still interested in this.

I like to create content and information systems (including websites and information architecture) that are naturally memorable and intuitive. Most of us do fairly well exploring the world, avoiding traps and deadends and remembering the important stuff. I try to create digital and print products and projects that feel just as intuitive to explore and enjoy.

I also bring magic to everything I do, both literally and metaphorically.
