If anyone knows me, they know that I am a color fanatic. I love to choose palettes for homes and offices. Usually, I find myself spec’ing Sherwin WIlliams colors from the fan deck I purchased a couple of years ago. This ad campaign is creative and clever. The paper sculptures created make color feel friendly. You would be surprised, a lot of people are afraid of color. I say don’t be afraid, embrace it!

Here is my blog post about an infographic about blogging.

I found this infographic that breaks down “where-the-stuff-on-the-internet-comes-from.” It reveals “Politics” is the most popular blog topic and “Technology” is the most popular topic to tweet. They can file this post under “Education.”

Check out GOOD’s website for a large collection of infographics.

These ads caught my eye today - featured on Communications Arts. As an avid Birkenstock wearer, I can say that when I slip on one of my many pairs, I feel absolute comfort. This campaign totally depicts that. I love the use of color, pattern and storytelling. Kudos to the designers.
