Found a new favorite Tumblr tag: &#8220;publications design&#8221;! Lots more hits than newspaper design, but still great inspiration. I think this is an example of how things don&#8217;t need to be overly complicated to look nice. The simple pop of color here does it.

Interesting case study in tablet app design. Great read for anyone interested in the thought that goes into these designs! Good stuff for consider for web design, too. gregmelander: IPAD TO WINDOWS 8 METRO STYLE “iOS is a popular platform for creating apps that are touch first, fun, and engaging. With the introduction of Windows 8 Consumer Preview, designers and developers have a new platform to unleash their creativity.” This is a pretty good case study. via interactioned

On they go. Oh, how much of joy - how much of sorrow, in each heart’s unwritten history.
