post Is this the fate of our design work?

Peeling Posters Sydney CBD

I saw this while walking through the CBD, is this the fate of all our poster design work? To be covered over, and eventually piled so thick that the layer of paper peels itself away from the wall?

It is scary to think everything is so temporary.

post Formal Friday versus Flanny Friday.

February 12th, 2009

Filed under: Article, News — Nick @ 4:08 pm

As a designer, we are allowed a certain measure of casual dress code every day of the week, rather than just a casual friday like other office workers.

So, in response to that, I have been trying to do ‘formal friday’ rather than casual friday. But no matter how hard I try, I always seem to end up going in the other direction and taking it to a higher level of casual with a flanny.

Now, a flannelette shirt is hardly a sleeveless shirt, but it certainly is down the list in regards to how casual I normally dress.

Should designers pick up the formal friday thing? Or are we just too determined in our casual dress code to ever mess with it?

For a while I have been telling my fellow designers about this site, and I thought I had better share it with everyone.

Great for a bit of a laugh, and quite practical too. I can just see how many times I would be using the ‘comic sans is illegal’ sticker…
