The Life of a Designer is a Beautiful Nightmare :l

The information on this chart doesn't seem realistic in my opinion. Look at the difference between an interior designer with a masters and then with a PHD. And you can't be an architect with only a high school degree.

This chart didn't pertain to me an architect as I experienced international (Dubai) payday. Blows the 1-4 yrs average out of the water. I am getting into Design Management; looks good from this chart.


Ouch. Almost everyone took a hit in 2008.

Well, the design profession is still tough. But being part of a creative crowd, we will find a way to leave our mark. We don't design for the money or the glory. We just want to help people and design cool stuff while doing it.

In Miami, the renovation and retro-fitting market is doing great but it is very competitive. I am looking into stretching out into the rest of Florida and beyond. All from the comfort of my office and wi-fi (starbucks perhaps).

Good luck Comrades. Design as if you are designing for God.

Use the Coaster Please!

Aaron Pizzuti has the right idea with this multi-function table stand. Contact him @ Coroflot

Launching a Chair into OuterSpace!! Legal?

This made me a bit dizzy as I am scared of heights. I tagged God because he is everywhere.

Florian Scharfer Alarm Clock Radio Concept

The concept can be tweaked more but it has potential. Again, industrial designers have the best ideas. I overslept today, did you?

Love the Motion Graphics!!!!

Medusateam Showreel from Medusateam on Vimeo.

Medusa does justice with Adobe After Effects + every other nerdy graphic software. I would do stuff like this if I had the equipment (expensive, unless I steal) and the patience (hours) for renders to happen (:l)

Steckelhörn 11....Fail or Win?

I was going to post about the German building by architect J. Mayer H. but I forgot. Nonetheless the pictures look gross to me, almost fake. There is something about the exterior that doesn't go well with the neighborhood, especially the street and sidewalk. The interior is classic 'white' design. So I am going to bypass posting pictures and let Buzz Beast present it to you.

Drawing Cities from Memory!!

Stephen Wilshire has the incredible ability to view a scene of an entire city and draw it from memories. Now only does he remember but he is a great artist.

I was never good at making origami, but Tanaka makes it look simple. I wonder how large are the models in person.

HYPE For Hype Williams!!

Hype Williams has been directing videos since I can remember MTV. I enjoy the Amazing piece because its a video about how beautiful nature is untouched. It was filmed in Kauai, Hawaii.
