When the passion is there, it simply “flows” into every little thing you write. Try to put passion earlier than cash along with your weblog, and see what happens! Everyone get’s so wrapped up with being profitable, and whereas that does have it’s place on this capitalist society, your blog will actually stand out as one thing particular, if it is content material pushed: I think that the vital component for a very good web site or blog is to really have the eagerness to your subject material or product.

I don't really follow too many designers. My favorite all time designer is Alan Hori, who I worked with at Atlantic Records. I read a lot about design from <a href="http://www.dmi.org/dmi/html/index.htm" rel="nofollow">DMI</a>. One good read is Tim Brown's paper on <a href="http://www.unusualleading.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/HBR-on-Design-Thinking.pdf" rel="nofollow">design thinking</a> Ryan thanks for the comment.

I agree, design has to happen at every level of production. I always find myself with a hunger to innovate, conceptualize and engulf entire problems I'm faced with brands rather than seeking sexy tutorials and button mashing in photoshop. Do you have any favourite design philosophers? Wow, this was a really great article and I enjoyed your thoughts on this. I agree, design has to happen at every level of production.

Do you have any favourite design philosophers?

It's importance and power are under-valued! Very true article, unfortunate for some companies design is just an after thought. It’s importance and power are under-valued!

In fact, just recently I followed this concept in the creation of my own business cards. You can see the finished design <a href="http://dougdraws.com/my-new-business-card/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I was trying to come up with a truly unique design that 'communicated' who I am and what I do and so I designed this card in the shape of a pencil. Once the cards are die-cut and printed then when I hand someone my card it will stand out from all the others and make an impression about me and my work all by itself. So yes, designers <em>do</em> have the ability to streamline their communications so that the impact of the messages is clear and concise. I agree.
