Today my choice for this rubric will go to one of my personal blogs.

This is a very special blog for me because I update twice a week and I manage it with one of my best friends which lives in London and this blog is all about cultural, social and visual diferencies between Sesimbra, where I live and London.

We decided that the themes would be random themes for each post and basically our followers can suggest themes for the next week.

Mainly this blog focus on visual - Photography!

FastCo.Design website must be known by many of you, I sure.

This is one website where design, marketing and creativity are combined. One big mix that I enjoy most.
Issue subject combine between all design areas and of course, marketing in a very simple, clean and frontal way. Its a good reference to maintain our acknowledgement level high.

I also want to notice that another thing very interessing in this website is the fact that all colaborators came form diferent areas, but in certain way these areas touches creativity and they teaches us to use our daily objects and sujects to inovate.

I advice to take a good look!

From now on, every Friday I will choose one blog with something useful, maybe not related with design but with fashion, life etc... and this starts today!!

My first choice goes to "Studs and Pearls".
I just discovered this and its something unique... teach us in a very simple way how to make our own clothes, accessories etc.

Look around and I'm sure you will learn something!

Today we commemorate World Industrial Design Day! It is a big step for all Industrial Designers all over the world to be able to commemorate and promote Industrial Design.

A little bit around the world, several activities are presented to a big public. Unfortunately, in Portugal there is no special activity about this day. I only hope one day, in every country, we could enjoy this day, promote our profession and show the importancy of Industrial Design in everyday life objects.

Learn more about this day here: http://www.icsid.org/projects/world_industrial_design_day.htm
