2011 Resolutions

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 06:15 AM PST


By the end of every year most people have their wishes and hopes for the next year, and they come up with the new year's resolution. Some of us have just one resolution and some others have a big list. What are your 2011 Design Resolutions?

<!--break-->

A New Year's resolution is a commitment to a personal goal that an individual makes to a project or the reforming of a habit, often a lifestyle change that is generally interpreted as advantageous. The name comes from the fact that these commitments normally go into effect on New Year's Day. Some examples include resolutions to donate to the poor more often, to become more assertive, or to become more environmentally responsible.

Having a new year resolution is no different from setting some goals for the new year, we all have a friend or a family member that around this time starts telling everyone they going to quit smoke or do this and that, year after year and it never happens. You don't want to be that person specially when you set your design resolutions.

"Don't just ride out the year, figure out what you want to do and make sure you do it."

Here are a few 2011 Resolutions:

Design History: Dieter Rams - Less But Better

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 04:10 AM PST


Pablo Picasso once said "Good Artists Copy Great Artists Steal" then Steve Jobs mention that in one interview long ago. We all know that Apple products are the best out there, there's no doubt about it, and the main reason about that is because they have the best design. Jonhathan Ive, the chief industrial designer at Apple is a fantastic designer but it's always good to know what and who inspired him to come up with the Apple product designs. We might think that they are pretty unique and new but when we look at Dieter Rams the Pablo Picasso's quote makes even more sense.

About Dieter Rams (Wikipedia)

Dieter Rams (born May 20, 1932 in Wiesbaden, Hesse) is a German industrial designer closely associated with the consumer products company Braun and the Functionalist school of industrial design.

Rams studied architecture at the Werkkunstschule Wiesbaden as well as learning carpentry from 1943 to 1957. After working for the architect Otto Apel between 1953 and 1955 he joined the electronic devices manufacturer Braun where he became chief of design in 1961, a position he kept until 1995.

Rams once explained his design approach in the phrase "Weniger, aber besser" which freely translates as "Less, but better". Rams and his staff designed many memorable products for Braun including the famous SK-4 record player and the high-quality 'D'-series (D45, D46) of 35 mm film slide projectors. He is also known for designing the 606 Universal Shelving System by Vitsœ in 1960.

Design History: Diert Rams - Less But Better

Rams' ten principles to "good design"

  • is innovative
  • makes a product useful
  • is aesthetic
  • makes a product understandable
  • is unobtrusive
  • is honest
  • is long-lasting
  • is thorough down to the last detail
  • is environmentally friendly
  • is as little design as possible

Black and White Illustrations by Adam Isaac Jackson

Posted: 30 Dec 2010 01:59 AM PST


Adam Jackson currently resides in Seattle Washington, but spent most of my life growing up in Japan. His work is infused with a love for fashion, comic books, rock posters, cartoons and a heavy influence of pop culture in general. Adam graduated from the Art Institute of Seattle in 2005 and has since been working in the apparel/fashion industry primarily as a graphic artist (Adam's blog).


"In my art, I look to capture those moments and expressions I find the most beautiful and iconic and elaborate on them. Whether it's bold patterns and bright colors, or simple black and white drawings, I am always trying to bring out the attitude and personality of the subject matter. I seem to prefer the black and white, especially right now"(Adam's blog).



With you wanna know more about Adam and his work, you can access his Website or his Facebook page.
