We appreciate good design, but sometimes content is king, and this blog is one of our favorites. We love how she highlight designers and artists she find interesting!
Although she spend a lot of time reporting on other people's work, she also sparks off interesting discussions. Like her Picasso story proved.
Her posts are mostly about design, but she also knows a thing or two, as her design portfolio proves!
Put your hands together for our Spanish graphic designer Henar!

I really didn't expect this when I logged in on saturday. It was very early, and I was exhausted after a really long sleepless night working on a presentation. I looked at the screen, trying to focus, and what do I discover? I´M MEMBER OF THE WEEK!!!!

Thanks to all the people at my.opera that wanted to make me MOTW! I hope a lot of members will visit my pages and hopefully find something interesting enough.

I want to thank everyone that wrote all those nice messages, you are all so kind! Thanks to this, I´m meeting a lot of great people. I especially loved the comment by Hovsep Avedissian, mentioning my Picasso post:
Hi To which Picasso responded, “Madame, it took me my entire life.”
And here you go as the member of the week congrats for all entire life.


THANKS SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH EVERYONE!!!!! I´ll try to keep up the good work!!!!


Design is...

"To design is much more than simply to assemble, to order, or even to edit; it is to add value and meaning, to illuminate, to simplify, to clarify, to modify, to dignify, to dramatize, to persuade, and perhaps even to amuse".

Interesting artist: Nils Nova

, , , ...

Nils Nova's installations are designed to subvert our perception of time and our assumptions about space.

In his projetcs he mixes techniques like ink-jet prints on blueback-paper pasted on the wall, paintings on boards, photography, everyday objects or people.

I find his work fascinating... I´ve always been interested in works on the way we perceive the reality around us, and I especially like the way the artist shows this in his installations. They appear to be so clean and simple... and leave us thinking about so many complex ideas...
Lovely work! Here are some examples from his web site:
