Weekly Design Links – 01/16/24

2024 is off and running. I’ve been trying to get off on a good foot with some changes to my routine. So far this hasn’t gone to plan. Last week, my weekly post had the wrong date. It’s not a big deal, but not ideal. My attempt to do “100 Days of Code” isn’t going super well. I’m not going to lose sleep over these bumps in the road. I’ll focus on the big picture. Last year, I hit my goal (on the last day of 2023) by finishing 50 books.?Here’s the recap, if you are curious. Here’s to the slow boil!?

Architecture

A Tailor-Made Minimalist Apartment On The Northern Beaches This Avalon Beach apartment was originally built in the 1960s, but almost every element you see today has been designed and made by the owners over the past four years.

It only took 11 people to build this Lego-like apartment complex in Florida A 96-unit building was put together like a set of children’s building blocks.

Industrial Design

SEGA x Anicorn Watch Turns Back Time to the 16-Bit Era If you count yourself as one of those kids who grew up playing the Sega Genesis, even a cursory glance is sure to reignite memories of the console’s signature black and red industrial design.

‘A mouse for your mouth’: New device allows users to scroll with their tongues MouthPad, which attaches to the roof of the mouth, made its debut on the floor of CES. It will be available to the public later this year.

The 7 weirdest AI products at CES this year From a refrigerator to a bird feeder, these AI products are turning heads—for better or worse.

Typography

A High-Concept Typeface Inspired by MeteorologyHour, designed by Federico Parra Barrios, is a high-concept typeface that interprets the forms of engraved letters against the sun’s movement and changing ambient light.

Web Design/UX/UI

58 rules for beautiful UI design The right UI can elevate an application from functional to unforgettable, making the difference between a user who engages once and one who returns time and again.

Graphic Design/Advertising

The North Face – 50 Years of Parkas We were thrilled to partner with The North Face in developing a campaign to commemorate the 50th anniversary of their iconic parka. This parka is not just a brilliant piece of technical gear for extreme conditions, it’s also a cultural symbol that has resonated with the masses.

Art

The World’s First Art Amusement Park Is Back After Four Lost Decades You can visit Luna Luna: Forgotten Fantasy in Los Angeles (thanks to Drake).

Wakulla Receipt Map This map was designed to be printed on six feet of thermal receipt paper. Why on earth would anyone do that, you ask?
