Keep It SimpleLove this type, and what a great mes­sage from WK.

Yes! I have been look­ing for a guide like this. A great resource based upon H&FJ’s Highly Sci­en­tific First Prin­ci­ple of Com­bin­ing Fonts: keep one thing con­sis­tent, and let one thing vary.

shamrock 2010

Posted: March 15th, 2010 | Filed under: art/design, athletics | No Comments »

Sham­rock was great — I fin­ished the 8K at 55:10, 11 minute miles, which I felt great about! Any­one who has run with me knows that’s on the fast side for me.

And the final design of the 2010 teeshirts turned out ab-fab as well.


how satellites work

This Is Real Art has made a series of charm­ing infor­ma­tional films on the way that satel­lites work. I’ve been design­ing a lot of info graph­ics to describe var­i­ous tech­nolo­gies lately, so this is par­tic­u­larly inter­est­ing to me. Explain­ing com­plex idea in sim­ply is no small feat — good, clean design is a must!

What a great PSA poster from Color Cubic, a mul­ti­dis­ci­pli­nary cre­ative stu­dio here in Port­land. Which reminds me — I need to get read­ing my book!

design decisions

Posted: March 5th, 2010 | Filed under: art/design | 1 Comment »

If there’s any­thing I’ve learned with my bath­room remodel, it’s that plan­ning is every­thing. I’ve def­i­nitely expe­ri­enced the domino effect with the project which has left my head spin­ning sev­eral times! Then there’s the axi­ety about how the fin­ished prod­uct with look. Con­sid­er­ing not only about the qual­ity of the final work, but the design deci­sions that were made.

The thing I hemmed and hawed about the most was the grout color. Even while I was putting it up, I was doubt­ing if “Deloreon Grey” was really the best choice.

So, when I saw this on Apart­ment Ther­apy this morn­ing, I felt pretty good.

My friend, Mered­ith is also par­tic­i­pat­ing in the Pacific Crest Triathlon this sum­mer. She is work­ing with Team in Train­ing and has a fund-raiser com­ing up this week­end. I cre­ated an ID for her event. Fun stuff!

Tub to ceil­ing tile is look­ing to be a must. I love how it makes the room seem more grand in this remodel.
