I used to create folders to collect visual inspiration of all types. This includes design inspiration and fashion/style inspiration. I viewed them in icon view within Finder folders. This was great, except that: 1. After about a month the folders were too big to keep handy without lugging my hard drive around 2. Consequently, if I didn't have my hard drive, I didn't have access to the folders 3

Love it, with one exception. Pinch to Zoom does not seem like it should open something new, it should really make something larger, like in maps. Perhaps a double tap would translate better?

On a recent shopping trip to downtown NYC, I had my first experience with the All Saints Spitalfields brand. A very distinct British clothing retailer. Aside from the brilliantly crafted environment, which tells the brand's story quite well, I also found that All Saints had installed iPads around the perimeter of each department. Each iPad was running what I thought was a mobile version of

Ideas are like leaves. Some stay and hang around until it's time for change, and others fall off and get blown away.

Often when making the switch to web, graphic designers strive for visual and conceptual excellence, but may face hurdles in dealing with usability expectations. Listed below are 10 common best practices for ensuring your design's user experience is as solid as the visual design you worked so hard on: 1. Canvas size - the minimum screen resolution to accommodate for now is 1024 x 768, so you

Interesting to see which social media platforms are currently the most popular. As this Mashable article shows, Twitter is immensely popular (also evidenced by the number of retweets.) Although facebook is the #2 website on the internet right now, it seems that it's a different crowd than Mashable's audience, as seen through the low number of fb share links.

I've noticed lot of homepages and landing pages which have an incalculable amount of content on them. It seems as though companies want to post every last piece of info that could possibly be of use (to anyone). However, this is not the optimal experience for your users. It's kind of like going to a strangers house and trying to find a specific note on someone's messy refrigerator door. It's

Hmmm.  I agree that Lorem ipsum has it's proper place, but I disagree that real content should wait until production to be inserted. I think people get confused between "content" and "copy".  Copy are the words, but content is the real communication, it's the difference between offering links to lecture speakers or posting the entire transcript of the workshop. There are content strategists and

Don't be silly.Changing your brand typeface from (a modified, hence more ownable) Futura to the screen font Verdana is like me hanging your IKEA frames with the fake photo inside. There's no personality, no relevance and it looks generic.I understand if you're thinking ubiquitous, simple, accessible design for all is perfectly articulated by using a ubiquitous, simple font which is accessible by

Upon reaching a certain age, you will encounter a theme party at which people will wear costumed interpretations of outfits they once wore when they were younger. Nostalgic and silly at the same time. I decided to skew more nostalgic and purchased these oldschool kicks, similar to a pair a cousin of mine had in the mid 80's, but with an '09 flair. Great memories.

Design is not always about visual prowess and technical know-how. Much more importantly, it's about understanding the concept and developing solutions which take the big idea and exemplify it.

User Experience and Brand Experience are like siblings. They both need your love and attention. One is not more important than the other, even though every parent secretly has their favorite.

Sprint has decided to use the concept of data visualization as the advertising concept to promote the new Palm Pre (available exclusively through Sprint). Interesting in a meta kind of way. The site actually seems a bit gimmicky, whereas most data visualization / aggregation can be used as a real tool, this site feeds random, seemingly useless facts because it can. Or even worse, because it's

It is believed that an organization's logo is a shortcut to identifying their brand. It's how you know you're getting the official version, the real thing. And as brands become online and networked experiences, avatars have become shortcuts to logos. I have noticed that many visual executions use the most recognizable portion of the logo to use as an avatar. In the case of the NY Times examples

Apparently the new, minimal Tropicana packaging done by the Arnell Group was not a hit with consumers. They had more of an emotional attachment to the previous straw and orange visuals than research showed.Read the New York Times article.

User Experience without Brand Experience is like an unseasoned steak. In theory it's edible, but not very tasty.

CNN.com has won a spot in the AIGA 365, but under brand and identity systems design. This is interesting. In the latest AIGA 365, the cnn.com website has won a spot not under an interactive grouping, but under brand and identity systems design. Surprisingly, there is no interactive design grouping for the competition. Web experiences have been categorized and regarded by their type of

This idea of sketching can extend well beyond visual design, even as far as the look and feel of your own personal appearance. When deciding on my Autumn 08 steez, I like to put together some moodboards before making any purchases. This extra 20 min can save hours in trips back to make returns while saving dollars in costly impulse purchases of items that aren't necessary. It's also a great way

This past Thursday, I attended the first in a series of lectures sponsored by the MFA in Interaction Design Program at SVA, entitled Dot Dot Dot. This series is put together by Liz Danzico, the program chair. The theme of this first lecture was "sketching". This makes perfect sense, being that is was the first event, and sketching is typically the first step in solving problems with design. (

The new technology is about very big ideas that have huge, unseen potential, and very simple visual executions. This lends itself to the ideology of making technology invisible, whereas it just becomes part of your life. But when does the visual nature of these technologies becomes less than simple and end up just being plain? Does this take the wind out of the sails?The new technology is also
