Another huge loss in the world of design... Iris was a fascinating woman, with more style in her pinky than most of us muster head to toe. Just pure class.

Not sure how I missed this... Honestly, I'd put the Pop Tart up there in the top 100 products ever. And Jerry Seinfeld is about to come out with a documentary on Pop Tarts, to the extent I needed any support for that opinion:-)

Have suspected for a while that Boeing's engineering and design teams were getting an unfairly bad rap... Great article discusses why (as so often the case) it's probably Wall Street's fault. I have friends in private equity, but I try to ignore what they do...

Just a photo and a design comment today... IMO the C Pillar trim on the Kia Carnival is truly revolutionary in the world of auto design. Like it or not, I can't think of another car with patterned, highly textured metal surfaces like this (aside from Kia's other models). If you know of other examples please comment below, thanks!

Is the era of design thinking truly over, or did IDEO just jump the shark it created?

Excellent overview of legal issues related to the use of fonts in graphic and industrial design… Many designers are too casual about this (I was once guilty myself, unintentionally)

Great follow up to last week's post about interior design trade dress... Here's an interesting case which just addressed trade dress functionality for candy shaped like the fruit flavor it represents

I've always believed there are significant costs to wearing noise-canceling devices, some more obvious than others... Great to see an article that lays it all out
