They are amazing because they 1) look real 2) are completely flat but look 3 Dimensional 3) drawn only with chalk. The author of these great drawings is a super creative person also known as Pavement Picasso whose real name is Julian Beever.

Designer In The Spotlight (DITS) is a weekly feature that I run every Sunday (or more) to help particular individuals in the design community get their name ‘out there’ and to educate the community as a whole. It is a series of questions that asks the designer about themselves and their job as a designer. If you would like to be featured in an upcoming DITS post fill out the form here.

Wallpaper (at-home, not on-screen) isn’t what it used to be, but we bet you never thought it could look THIS good! New ideas and revolutionary techniques have allowed artists and designers to bring two-dimensional surfaces to life. What’s on YOUR wall?”

Ideas. They’re at the heart of every creative process. However, almost no really good ideas are flashes of inspiration. They may start that way—a single glimmer of something special—but in order to work, they need to be honed. Like a really good cheese, they need to mature.

We continue the exploration of the offline world in search for that spark of inspiration. This time we are going to look at magazines. There are all sorts of them out there and some are better than others. I’ve tried to come up with an interesting mix of styles and topics to keep it diverse.

I’ve been asked by many students lately, “what is the future of illustration”? I usually refuse to answer on the grounds that I may incriminate myself by revealing an inability to be as wise or prescient as I am made out.

"We could hope that the current sartorial individualist attitude of men's dressing will continue. Yet what was almost exclusively sharp, angular, and urbane may now be beginning to melt ever so slightly around the edges. There may, in parallel, even be a subtle slide toward the conceptual."

With the severe economic downturn, you are less likely to go and buy things, but at the same time, you can now dream and scheme more freely, not concerned with the particulars for a moment... "A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away... I bought this humongous 150-inch plasma screen TV... 11 speakers and a subwoofer".
