Design quote

I've neglected my blog far too long, and I don't feel too good about that. I'm going to gradually start writing again, and this might be a good start. I've been reading some interaction design books for the past several months and this little quote resonated with me deeply:

Never show a design approach that you’re not happy with; stakeholders
just might like it.

I've been quite busy lately, working on multiple projects at a time. One of the more fun things I've been doing is taking part in an Open Logo Project for re-branding of Spreadshirt, a big online t-shirt label that lets you customize your own shirts (and is the platform I use for the Legofish Store).

It's a 7-week competition and one of my designs has made the final short list and I'm feeling pretty good about that. It's a really fun design and I had as much fun making it as people seem to be having looking at it and playing with it (it's quite interactive, so do check it out).
