This is where I write for the web.
Established in 1912 the National Association of Swedish Handicraft Societies (SHR) celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2012. I love their idea behind this, which is: “Everything SHR say, we say by hand.” I don’t want to waste your time reading my opinion on this, it’s great. Check the rest of it here, and look at their process, seems very fun. SNASK have an amazing portfolio make sure you look around their site too.

It’s a window… not a flag
Windows 8 logo redesign or in Microsoft’s own word; Reimagined. It’s obviously taking the logo-mark from the metro tiles when being scroll horizontally, kinda in perspective. The identity is also color-agnostic, so it changes with the color scheme being used in the start screen. I still don’t get it why they still use the name “Windows”, why not use “Metro” instead.

As a constant user myself, it would be hypocritical of me to go on a rant against social media. But I do worry about how this story plays out. What happens when we get so attached to the online places where we “might once again be more” that we get tired of being with the people around us?
Online presence is literally an extended and exaggerated version of oneself.
