"Uppercase Living gives those of us in love with typography an interesting tool to add typography to our home design. The product is a matte finish vinyl that provides each piece with a hand-painted look and feel. The product doesn't just apply to walls, but you can also apply it to other surfaces like painted wood, glass, sheet metal and other flat surfaces. Of course, since this is vinyl, application and removal is fairly easy. Most of the applications are meant for indoor use, but Uppercase Living also has one outdoor-use vinyl which is glossy white. You can either choose from a catalog of expressions & graphics or create your own customized version."

"History suggests that over twenty inventors worked toward the creation and design of the light bulb. Of these, Thomas Edison’s version was the most efficient. We are not here to dispute any claims but to appreciate the various forms and representations it has taken. Coming to the present times (and a bit into the future), let’s look at ten creative re-inventions of this light source."

These little meal planners are so handy. I can see slipping on into your purse as an easy reminder when grocery shopping. And they are cute to boot! Nothing beats an organizational tool that is eye friendly.

It depends on the context, but on a desktop - no, not "too large," about average I'd say.

Oh, I was talking about for a webpage. On dialup, it would take at least sixteen seconds for the 90 kilobyte image to load. The image is probably far too large.

Ive was insistent that the key to Apple's success was that it was not driven by money - a claim that may raise eyebrows amongst shareholders and customers - but by a complete focus on delivering just a few desirable and useful products.

" key to Apple's success was that it was not driven by money " -- yup. already knew that so no raised eyebrows here. A company looking to make purely profits wouldn't dare to release a phone without frickin' copy-and-paste. This is what sets Apple apart from the rest. Creativty/Innovation driven business. Unfortunately Steve's health throws doubt on how long and how passionately the...

樓上“of where companies are doing better than Apple in the creative department.”,一直很疑惑,到底人們是如何定位“Be better in creative department”的?或許只是兩大派系的各執其辭+路人旁觀。

Well those are different, - interesting tag on playing on stereotypes throughout the series provided on the link. Although I can't figure out the British chick and cat thing.

Takasugi-an Chino City, Nagano Prefecture Terunobu Fujimori, 2003-2004 The academician and architect, Terunobu Fujimori, has observed that a teahouse is “the ultimate personal architecture.” Its extreme compactness, which would at most accommodate four and a half tatami mats (2.7 square metres) or even just two tatami mats (1.8 square metres) of floor space, makes it feel as though it were an extension of one’s body, “like a piece of clothing.” takasugi-an-by-terunobu-fujimori-6.jpg The tea masters traditionally maintained total control over the construction of these “enclosures,” whose simplicity was their main concern. They therefore preferred not to involve an architect or even a skilled carpenter - an act considered as being too ostentatious. Following this tradition, Fujimori decided to build a humble teahouse for himself and by himself over a patch of land that belonged to his family. takasugi-an-by-terunobu-fujimori-7.jpg His interest as an architect, however, lay more in...

That cable management hasn't seen more 'design' other than cheapie crap I see in Home Depot is always shocking to me. It's an issue that confronts even average families having these spaghetti clusters of wires behind this that and whatever. Basically we're still using the same system (outlets, cords) we had 75 years ago. Wish there was something more interesting.

Cee Bee, not it the intention is to post visual SPAM (which such captionless photo sequences undoubtedly are - which is why I never look at them).

Someone should design a typeface of such logo look-alike icons (with as many variants for individual "logos" as can be found), then someone else should print them out and use to construct anonymous "ransom notes" sent out to magazines, thus spawning a massive hunt for the presumed logo-kidnapper (or something). If there is a movie script in this scenario, I'm claiming credit!
