Dedicated to inspiring designers, inventors & the creative spirit in all of us.

For those of you who want to freshen up your rendering skills, or maybe just want a little help learning how to sketch, IDsketching  is for you. I followed along with this tutorial using Alias SketchBook Pro on my Wacom and step by step successfully rendered the earbuds as shown above. If you go into the tabs, you can even navigate through dozens of marker renderings, hand sketches and computer generated drawings posted by the authors. Novice or professional, check out this creative site!

For those of us who love to soak up a fact or two, Design Within Reach offers this catalog of designers to sort through and absorb a variety of personal and professional biographies. This takes me back to design school when I was given a laundry list of designers to read about who have made a difference in the design world.
