Do Good Design

The original First Things First Manifesto (1964) by Ken Garland fairly gets you thinking. Likewise the recently published book Do Good Design by David Berman (2009) AIGA offers very interseing food for thought.

Hello

Working as a University lecturer primarily with Graphic Design degree students within Higher Education in the UK means daily engagement with different people, experiences, ideas and objects. Working within the art, design and media sector offers exciting perspectives and tastes.......as a graphic design historian there is no real switch off time....there are always good things around to consider...

With a passion for packaging, and the discovery of delightful unusual or interesting design, each day brings new ideas and observations. A daily gathering of thoughts, finds and facts relating to graphic design, design and culture in general is interspersed with wider ideas and information relating to learning and teaching in Higher Education.
