Inspiring Design
Hello, so yea, I’m a modeling geek…. And thus this really interested me, so 3 hours after looking and reading about this I thought I’d enlighten you all.
The project is basically a huge miniature world, but the site is actually really pretty.
In particular, this selection window. I like the witty little images which reflect their purpose.

Found this via 40fakes although I don’t know where it originally comes from. Donde está la wingdings indeed. The use of Helvetica for Hydrogen is genius. Click images for the big version.
Some nice retro assemblies with some infographics mixed in for good measure. I’m really loving this type of stuff. Click the pictures for the link to more.

Lovely work from Alejandra Román. It’s got me thinking about my final project.
Found via Graphic Exchange.
Continuing the infographics theme, found this amazing piece by Quetin Delobel.
Found via Cool Infographics.
A beautifully designed virtual booklet from Wired Magazine that examines technological developments in food production.
Found via Cool Infographics.
The infographics nerd and the plane nerd inside me had a mini disco party when I found these American Cold War flight manuals. I particularly like the Ejection one - some nice modernist typography and simple charts to explain possibly one of the most violent events a person can go through.
In a bit a continuation from the previous post, I found someone doing something very similar with films as classic book covers.
From Spacesick.
Some lovely recreations of classic video game covers as classic book covers by Olly Moss. Click the picture for more.
