Women "rock-star" designers


This article Wy are there so few female "rock star" graphic designers?

Another great piece of writing by Michael Bierut. Milton Glaser's reply to the question, while probably true is very blunt.

[Glaser said] that the reason there are so few female rock star graphic designers is that “women get pregnant, have children, go home and take care of their children. And those essential years that men are building their careers and becoming visible are basically denied to women who choose to be at home.” He continued: "Unless something very dramatic happens to the nature of the human experience then it’s never going to change." About day care and nannies, he said, "None of them are good solutions."

Cool Advertising


Cheeky advertising from carlsberg - found on serif

Processing


After hearing about processing I saw this piece of infoGraphics by Sagmeister down with processing and was thoroughly impressed.

tanyaholbrook.com

My website is finally up and running. Still a lot to do and fix, but its a work in progress. Some of the work needs to be retouched and laid out in a more sympathetic way. I would like to have all the print work photographed and then put up, but that will take time. I want to link to my blog as well, hence to quick redesign of my blog.

Hope you enjoy.
