Simon's personal favourite design blogs!

A quick insight into my design blog feeds. I get a lot of inspiration from the wider design world than just web design, and I feel it definitely helps forge a more unique style than simply following the online trends. I'm always inspired by great work, and this is where I go to see and read about it!

All about the grid, and general swiss-ness. Clean and championing some glorious work.


Design Notes

Michael Surtees offers his thoughts on web design and design in general. Some great insights.


Creative Review

An obvious one, but it really is a pretty authentic voice of the UK design industry. Great stuff.

Great list Si. I particularly like the look of Jon Hicks' blog. Modern, but with a touch of the London Underground about it!

On a serendipitous note, I'm reading The Woman in White at the moment - cracking stuff: http://noisydecentgraphics.typepad.com/design/2009/08/penguin-books.html

I really liked the Woman in White I must say - did it for book group. Thought it was going to really annoy me, but it didn't, and it's stayed with me too!

Hicks was the guy who drew the FireFox logo btw.
