My, yes, these are wonderful. I know that my letterpress friends may have some equally interesting experiments. What else have you all been printing with?

I can think of a few more… such as “good design is relevant” or “good design influences,” but that would change the neat simplicity of having only 10 principles.
“Drawn from a survey of 180 design pros, it shows the favored apps in their toolkits. At the very least, these charts will show you a few apps that you might consider: ”
I do see this mirroring my own workflow of tools in many respects. I will go on record and say that Evernote has changed my life in terms of keeping me organized (which is a big part of the battle in a creative environment – more time on big thinking and less time managing your tasks.)
Part of my continuing fascination with time and timepieces…Who says that we don’t need watches anymore?
“Some people like taking their time,” says artist Kim Rugg, whose artistic achievements are measured in millimeters, used X-ACTO blades and picas. We spent the afternoon with Rugg in her London home and studio talking about her work re-imagining newspapers, comics, stamps and cereal boxes using their existing form while rearranging their content. Kim finds inspiration from the mundane and common objects around us. Her wicked knife skills and tenacious attention to detail have created a body of work that is as impressive as it is curious.
Lesson 1: Find the beauty in everyday objects
Lesson 2: Details matter
Lesson 3: Patience, patience, patience
A little type adventure. Just perfect for a saturday afternoon.
Very cool. I love self-generated projects. Although… now I can’t help but feel like an underachiever. I’ve never tried to tackle a project of this size. What will be my opus?
Last night’s presentation by Pablo Ferro (he showed us many of the “defining” pieces in storytelling: Dr. Stranglove, Thomas Crown Affair and more) left me with a yearning to view more today. This site is filling my appetite for film titles, both modern and classic!
Design & Thinking – a documentary on design thinking
I’ve seen lots of books (both design and business) tackling the topic, but this is the first documentary I’ve run across. It will be interesting to see if they bring any clarity to this topic, or just pose more questions (eg: is it a tool, a methodology, a process, a POV, etc.) since depending on who you ask, you’ll get different answers to that.
