In 1914 Burberry was commissioned by the War Office to adapt its officer's coat to suit the conditions of contemporary warfare, resulting in the "trench coat". After the war, the trench coat became popular with civilians. The iconic Burberry check was created in the 1920s and used as a lining in its trench coats. The rest, as they say, is history. <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="779px" height="2px"> The Noble Union Creating simple, intuitive, beautiful things 571 King's Road London SW6 2EB +44 7796 271 278 Contact http://work.thenobleunion.com/479522/Burberry-iPhone-App http://work.thenobleunion.com/476452/Twestival-iPhone-App http://work.thenobleunion.com/476452/Twestival-iPhone-App Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:49:18 +0000 The Noble Union 476452 <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="779px" height="2px"> Twestival (or Twitter Festival) uses social media for social good.

Exploring the crime scene allows you to watch Martina talk about each novel, read the first chapter from each of the books, find out more about Martina in an exclusive extended bio and have instant access to buy the books you haven't read. <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/app_store_button.png" width="123px" height="47px" margin-top="-25px"> “Love the extracts and videos for all her books, I will be reading more of her previous novels now.” Martina Fan Review <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="779px" height="2px"> The Noble Union Creating simple, intuitive, beautiful things 571 King's Road London SW6 2EB +44 7796 271 278 Contact http://work.thenobleunion.com/476432/Martina-Cole-iPhone-App http://work.thenobleunion.com/476398/About http://work.thenobleunion.com/476398/About Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:49:01 +0000 The Noble Union 476398 We’re a design company based in London specialising in design and user experience. We aim to create simple, intuitive and beautiful apps for iPhone and iPad. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/858/476398/tnu_about.png" border="0" width="368" height="316" align="left" /> <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/twitter.png"> Why are we called The Noble Union? Well, it's simple really. Two brothers decided to start a design company with a foundation based on honesty, integrity and respect. Thus, The Noble Union was born. If you would like to work with us, drop us a line. Objective <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="379px" height="2px"> We create user interfaces and experiences that are as enjoyable to use as they are to look at. Meticulous attention to detail is applied to everything we do. Design isn’t just about how something looks and feels. Design is more about how it works. At The Noble Union we think of ourselves as problem solvers and solution identifiers. Teamwork <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="379px" height="2px"> Collaboration is a large part of the way we operate and means that we work closely with our clients to produce every piece of work. When necessary we work with a group of carefully selected experts which ensures that the final product meets and (hopefully) exceeds your expectations. Partners <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="379px" height="2px"> A thriving working partnership with our friends and development partners at Future Workshops, Mobikats and Mobile IQ has birthed a number of successful iPhone and iPad Apps. We love what we do. <img src="http://www.thenobleunion.com/cargo/divider.png" width="780px" height="2px"> The Noble Union Creating simple, intuitive, beautiful things 571 King's Road London SW6 2EB +44 7796 271 278 Contact http://work.thenobleunion.com/476398/About
