SuperUse
A really cool blog collecting design items which are made from recycled materials. Really an encouraging move for designers to become more eco-friendly and concious. Surpsingly most of the recycled design item looks rather pleasing and useful at the same time. via hitnews

Suprb
Delicious graphic design work, which most of the time reminds me of Constructivism. Solid work on the graphic and strong ones on the photography.

Future of Web Design
Are you going to the conference later this year? Should be wholesome experience in inspiring ownself to build a website which is far more future-proof, accesible and using best practices. Putting the event aside, the site itself is worthy to take a look at, the rounded corner tabs, reflective glassy button, and the organisation of the navigation. I’m not quite sure how, but it’s being crafted with heavy care ensuring the user will not miss out every details they want to know about the event and the “selling-point” of the site, which is the speakers right in front of the page. I’m even more surprised when I dropped by the site of the team which designed the site, Apple to Oranges, which almost a refreshing experience to go through a portfolio site, like reading a brochure itself, and forgotten I’m in a website. Good play of negative and positive spaces inside. On the other hand, I realized that the backend was designed by Carson Systems which started DropSend, an online file sharing space.

FFFFOUND!
Strong on the concept and usefulness, you may find this website is familiar if you have used delicious before. You can find and save pictures that you find interesting and save it into the site that will then be shared by them and so on. Great place to start with for your creative days at work.

If You Could…
What would you do, if you could do anything tomorrow? Book launch and preview pages, really interesting content.

No Pattern
Chuck Anderson’s work is addictively beautiful. Shining as always. It has been an trademark style for him whenever such a work appears.

This site really sent me flying, literally with its utilisation of a 3D engine in Flash, Papervision 3D. And also the dynamism of the content and interaction for the user, without restriction to create an artwork on the virtual canvas. Initially directed by The Mill. This is the future.

Browsing on the official Papervision 3D blog, I’m so delighted to find that Papervision 3D has gone to public beta which you can download and toy around with the source code on your Flash 8’s project! See how it works on video. Can’t wait to try it. Draw a Brahma Bus in full 3D!

Inside CG
This is a portal for our fellow computer graphic lovers, newest insider, coverage on 3D software development and tools. Definitely a stop for motion graphic designers and animators alike.

Calikartel Magazine
Professional model photography journal. A lot of strong art direction can be observed from the posts inside. While the subtle theme for the blog seems really suitable for a photography blog, the designer of the blog theme has a very interesting blog for himself, which his post on defining success as a designer caught my attention.
