Graphic Design, Photography

I found this image to be interesting. It is difficult to see what role Photoshop had in the color saturation and juxtaposition. I have seen a lot of design blogs posting collections of peoples’ things recently, and have noticed a great number of them categorizing by color. Stacks of books, shelves full of knick-knacks, and closets appear to be disregarding the subject of what is being stored, tending only to the color arrangement.

No designer’s Christmas stocking (or book shelf) is complete without this collection of titles. This box set includes an idea index, color index and layout index for reference to any design challenge. With over 1,900 illustrations, you don’t even need to know how to read to enjoy it!

Graphic Design

Innovative design goes further than just product design. I once again found myself searching the Etsy website using their color match feature. This interactive, color-coded search feature allows shoppers to pick-a polka-dot color blob that matches that missing color in their life. Scroll over the endless field of hues, and then click your chosen color to access a wealth of products available that match that color. Now that is great design.
