Why Designers Block?
Well, you've heard of writer's block? Well, designers get it, too - or something very similar. After all, although we may call ourselves 'creatives,' it doesn't mean we can be a conveyor belt of ideas for 365 days of the year. Sometimes it just won't happen, no matter how hard you force it.
I find the best way to overcome designer's block is to take a while to appreciate what has gone on before. Usually just enjoying someone else's work is enough to give me that 'lightbulb moment' of my own.
Which is why I started Designers Block, a collection of all the work that from one time or another has inspired me and opened my mind to brand new ways of working.
What can you expect to find in Designers Block?
Anything and everything, really: all different media, styles and brands. I'll look at print, online, mailers, business cards and guerrilla marketing, from right across the globe, in the realms of both B2B and B2C.
Want to feature in Designers Block?
If you have any design of your own that you would like me to feature in Designers Block, please email me.
Or maybe you've seen someone else's work which has inspired you? By all means, send that to me, too. I'm always looking to find out more about design and how others work.
It doesn't cost anything. It's just got to be good.
