The Unseen Cost
Barton Damer has posted a great article on his blog about pricing for motion graphic pieces. I had the privilege of sitting it on his breakout session last week at the Echo Conference and I was inspired by his outlook on design.

Almost Makes Me Want To Wear One
Love this concept for a bike helmet. I have never worn a bike helmet because they are bulky, sweat-inducing and just plain ugly, but this design might just convince me to strap one on.
From Sea To Shining Sea
I love this posters from Heads of State Design Studio. You can buy them here. (via swissmiss)
Only Time Will Tell
I have had a fascination with watches ever since I can remember, I believe it’s something I inherited from my grandfather Kenny. Along with sharing his name (my middle name is Kenneth) I also share his love for clocks, watches, gadgets, junk food and pretty much anything mechanical. So when I saw the watch above, I immediately knew I had to do this post. I love the simplicity and cleanness of this concept from Robert Dabi and I hope it makes into production. More pictures and video after the break. Read the rest of this entry »
An Artist’s Best Friend
I’m very impressed with Microsoft’s design for a tablet. I can see this Courier concept being a huge boon for anyone in the art/design fields. Looking forward to finding out a release date and cost for this promising piece of technology.
I Love A Good Idea
Toilets are not a topic I would usually cover, but I was very impressed by the ingenious idea of Swedish architect Anders Wilhelmson. He has designed a personal toilet that will not only help to stop the spread of disease, but also helps fertilize crops. Visit peepoople.com for more information about this amazing invention.
The iPhone Killer?
Microsoft unveiled it’s latest mobile software yesterday and I have to say I’m impressed. This past summer I moved from a Windows Mobile phone to iPhone and I can’t say for one moment I have missed that phone. If Microsoft delivers on what looks to be a very promising product, it could have me moving on when my contract is up with AT&T. Read an interesting article about the software and check out the gallery and videos of the phone in action on Engadget.
A Face Lift For The World
I recently discovered Tyler Eide’s design work. I was mucho impressed with all his work, but was particularly loved his proposed face lift for Google Earth. I love GE, but I would be a lot more inclined to use it more often if it looked this good. Great work Tyler!
A New Kind of Bookmark
I love this very clever bookmark/cover idea from designer Igor Udushlivy. What a great concept!
That’s What I Call Rebranding
I don’t know if you have noticed, but NBC has been completely rebranded and I love it! It’s simple, colorful, creative, modern, yet still ties in their history. Capacity Studios was in charge of the project and they have posted a case study about it. Don’t miss it. It’s a fascinating read.
