Adding insult to injury I added another design to the DM brief website. I wanted to get a goat’s hoof, but it ended up being a cow’s. Seems strangely normal, except fot the toe at the back. So far, no votes whatsoever. I liked it better when people clicked I hate it (18 to 8).

The design I made for the DM boots design competition (Hands on) not in all seriousness, I admit, so far receives more hate than love :-)

“ There’s the blank page, and the thing that obsesses you. There’s the story that wants to take you over and there’s your resistance to it. There’s your longing to get out of this, this servitude, to play hooky, to do anything else: wash the laundry, see a movie. There are words and their inertias, their biases, their insufficiencies, their glories. There are the risks you take and your loss of nerve, and the help that comes when you’re least expecting it. There’s the laborious revision, the scrawled-over, crumpled-up pages that drift across the floor like spilled litter. There’s the one sentence you know you will save. The next day there’s the blank page. You give yourself up to it like a sleepwalker. Something goes on that you can’t remember afterward. You look at what you’ve done. It’s hopeless. You begin again. It never gets any easier.

True about design as well as writing.
I posted the Doctor Martens design competition earlier; This one High HEELS - by ellen webb I like a lot. It inspired me to do one myself. It’s not accepted yet. I’ll maybe post it later.

The guy that made the inside-out teddy bears also makes beautiful puzzle collages. 20x200 : Untitled #9. Oh, these are going fast; only 88 of 200 remaining. Yes, I bought one.

slantback: Instead of building the usual wank agency website Modernista! have utilised the tools of web 2.0. The best way to get what I’m on about is to take a look at the site. (via Noisy Decent Graphics: Good agency website shock) Wow, this is impressive and original. They had me do a double take at the homepage, great! Probably repels some clients, but will attract the good ones.

Never grow up is a silver and gold plated candy necklace by ATYPYK. Lovely. I like it better than the Marcel Wanders mock necklace.

The name is also very amusing to me, because I am working on the Cannes Lions festival website for the Netherlands…
