Revert to Type Striking Typographic Sculptures, Architecture and Furniture
Aug 20th 2010 by
I think you will all know my weakness in design often comes down to typography and text art in particular. So much so that I have personally developed the idea to have typography merge into furniture design through kids chair designs. The idea is still formulated in CAD form, but more on that later. Architecture and furniture can take advantage of typography in conveying a message, speaking directly to its user.
Couldn’t there be a chair designed which spelt out ‘sit’ or a couch which spelled out the word ‘relax.’
I would love to see a bed design which was a bunch of ‘z’s.’
9Freelancing Vs. In-House: Which Do You Prefer?
Aug 18th 2010 by
Freelancing or an In-House position? Which works best for you? In this post, I will discuss my opinion on each, but I want to hear your opinions as well! I have been in the Computer World for about 11 years, with experience in the areas of software development and most recently concentrating my time in the world of Web Design and Development. For about 6 years I have worked as either a freelancer or in house at a company, and I have realized both have their pros and cons. In my article, Do You Have What it Takes to be a Freelance Web Designer or Developer?, I painted a pretty honest picture of the responsibility and sacrifice it takes to be a freelancer, and the truth is that is it a hard job. However, it definitely has it perks, and the perks it does have are great. On the other hand, having a steady in-house position has its serious perks as well, but with every thing in life, it also has its downfalls.
