Getting Inspired

Good design inspires good design, and the best thing you can do as a design student is look at a LOT of good design.

Form Fifty-Five is a blog dedicated solely to showing neat little bits of design to get you inspired.

Another good place to see great design that can inspire you is a blog called GrafficTraffic.

Computerlove is a site that focuses mostly on announcing design jobs, but it also features some really great design and provides links to the portfolios of some fabulously creative designers.


Lounge72 is a design portal and e-zine featuring interviews with some of todays most cutting edge designers.

One of my favourite places to get inspiration is Dirty Mouse. It features designers and their designs and provides links directly to their websites, too, so you can look at even more of their work.
