Forever in Blue Jeans
I’ve always had a factory fascination. As a kid one of my favorite books followed a toy truck and doll as they made their way down the line. I liked how this video kept it simple – not a lot of text, no supplementary audio, just machines, cotton and indigo. Maybe it’s just the soundtrack,...
Creative Ain’t Just for the Studio
Is the ability to exercise creative thinking a luxury? As the lone blogger here who is not “technically” in the Creative Studio, I found this new Adobe study on how creativity is perceived and valued globally to be pretty interesting (with a few minor bummers). Some thoughts after the jump.

AIDS Memorial Park Design – NYC
Ever since I submitted a design board for the WTC Memorial competition, I’ve been (happily, nerdily) following memorial and public space design competitions and this one has some really unique and innovate entries and a nice, simple well-designed winner in the “Infinite Forest” entry by studio a + i, pictured here. The space that will...
