Making a cool blog design that will stand out from the crowd, with all the blogs existing right now is quite a serious challenge. Before a potential new reader can get to the content of you blog you have to catch his attention. That’s when a good design comes handy. Of course, some will recommend keeping the design to a minimum and focus on the content itself. Content was, is and will always be king, but in the fast moving world of the Internet you have to use any advantage you can acquire to keep your visitors on the website.
Here are a few great looking blogs we have discovered (and published on our web gallery) over time.
A blog by Nick Sigler, a designer and illustrator living in Nashville, TN, and working at cabedge.com . Expect posts on the topics of design, art, music and culture in general.
The blog of 22 year old freelance designer Oleg Kostuk.
The blog of designer / painter Gisele Jaquenod.
Fashion is a strange thing sometimes. We’ve all seen at least once some sort of funky strange fashion outfit. As a designer you have the tendency to over-judge these kind of designs : is the designer cool because he doesn’t follow the trends or is he just bad? The same thing seems to apply to shoes. Designers are coming up more and more with futuristic, innovative designs.
We thought a bit of brake from our usual articles will be welcomed so here are some interesting shoe designs. Cool or not, innovative or just crap we’ll let you be the judge.
For our first yearly wrap up we want to bring you the best 50 CSS and Flash website designs of 2008 handpicked from our website showcase, CLD Web Gallery.
Okapi Studio is a multidisciplinary studio with offices in San Francisco, USA and Bucharest, Romania, with over 5 years of experience on the American and European market, offering a fine mixture of traditional and new media creative services.
We do print campaigns or new media, application design, website interfaces, industrial projects where we are shaping things from common objects like furniture and home equipment to full scale real habitable places. We love to experiment new ideas and break barriers when it comes to our imagination and skills. We might go to sleep at 5 in the morning and sometimes we might not sleep at all. Environment is not something that we adapt to but the thing that bends around our ways of life.
Our experience is reflected by works for established companies like Phillips, Vodafone, Mercedes-Benz, Coca-Cola, Sprite, Unilever, Renault, HVB Group, ING, IBM and TNT, but also for young brands like Tiret New York, MonVia, Terracan or Finex. Young companies who allow us to plant our creative seeds and grow them like trees until they became fully grown giving us later the satisfaction of relaxing under their shadow.
Artist David Garibaldi creates a really cool painting of Jimi Hendrix in a very creative and unusual way.
