quotes on design

If you have no intuitive sense of design, then call yourself an “information architect” and only use Helvetica. — David Carson

A Promise all Designers should make

From the blog of Swiss designer Tina Roth Eisenberg.

We all know people that love these typefaces, and need our help to steer them straight. If you posted this in their workspace maybe then they would get the picture.

It’s a simple promise, and I really don’t think it’s too much to ask!

I will never use hobo, comic sans, or papyrus ever again

This is great. It actually has a three little places to sign the promise at the bottom—which would come in handy for that co-worker that thinks Papyrus is just rad.

If you like this poster as much as I do, you can order one here at Lure Design.

    There are no stupid typefaces—just stupid people.
