It’s hard for small businesses to take the plunge and hire a designer in an age of DIY. Why should you invest in a professional website design when you can assemble one with the Web Builder from GoDaddy? There is certainly a pain threshold that a new business...

Hot dogs + Bacon = Yes. Milk + Orange Juice = Not so much. There are quite a few different food options at Fast Eddie’s that could trigger a gag reflex but I’m pretty certain that is what they are aiming to do. The cook (Eddie) and the waiter (Ed) pull...

Having spent several years creating online Flash advertising, I’m well versed in Flash animation. During its hey day it took over the web and could rarely be avoided on a stroll through the internet. Now that HTML5 can use elements and scripts to recreate many...

As a resident of Chaska it is my duty to repost absolutely anything Prince related and I do it with a glimmer of joy in my heart. Prince is up there with the White Stripes as far as branding a personal image and Pantone has taken note. There is now a color called Love...

Meetings take up a lot of your work week. Shouldn’t we end them at the right moment?

The new logo for IBM iX – the design and consulting division of IBM – is rad. I use that term sparingly but they have truly earned it. I can see it on a new pair of skater sneaks or on an oversized pixel portrait. Maybe I’m smitten because I already...

There are a few hot button topics when it comes to dealing with designers. If you have the privilege of working directly with one of these fragile creatures there are a few precautions you should take. For instance, if you ask for anything to be done in Microsoft Word...

The new year brings about all kinds of reflection and retrospective. 2016 was a different year than most and justly deserved the internet’s wrath. I would say this photo is the best way for me to capture how I feel about the year that has passed. Mildly chaotic,...

I make a lot of iTunes playlists through the year and there is one that got me through the firestorm that was 2016. When I needed to dust off the boots and kick some ass the playlist I call Dandy got the job done. Good as Hell – Lizzo Me Too – Meghan...

I don’t know that I’ve seen a video by Iowa Film Makers that I didn’t like, but this one is definitely my favorite. It comes in response to this video about how an undefeated Iowa team fits into the college football playoffs.

It’s funny how much we naturally want to assimilate. Blame your subconscious if you want, but deep down in the back of your mind you want to be just like everybody else. Designers are supposed to innovate and come up with creative solutions but still fulfill...

Grantland has a great article on the toils and troubles of Kit Harrington in keeping secrets during a digital age. It’s not easy being a heartthrob with a massive following who has to pretend his character from Game of Thrones is dead while parading around the...

One of the biggest obstacles I have found in designing logos is overcoming the theory that everyone and their mother should like a logo. If you are creating a mark for a new streaming music service that targets hipsters do you really want your mom to like the logo as...

Let’s get rambling. There’s something about design and travel that go in hand in hand for me. As a designer, you’re always looking for fresh solutions or new ideas and the best prescription is travel. Having your eyes opened to a new way of living...

I have to admit, since having a second child that my movie watching has hit an all-time low but there were some serious gems in the year that was 2014. Although any time that Wes Anderson releases a new film I probably call it a good year. I’m very excited to...

College football is awesome, although it was particularly tough to see the Hawkeyes getting crushed in their bowl game this year. It wasn’t all that surprising, given that they had an ok record with a cupcake schedule. They were probably a bit overrated, but not...

It’s almost tradition for a dance party to break out at our house at 5pm on Fridays. It’s probably the best way to start a weekend and you can shake out the work week in ten minutes on your way to R&R. The other benefit is that your son can also rock...

Sometimes it takes a long look at your collective work to notice themes. I think that the Mail Monkey logo for Aberdean hits a few of my common threads. Punchy colors(orange as a sub-theme), playful animals and block type seem to be my favorites. If you like...

This is another project I worked on at Makin’ Hey. I know the beaver on a bike is a little too obvious for a logo design, but it was too fun to draw. Look at what a good time he is having! Just riding free without a care in the world. Isn’t it time for you...

Runner’s Gate was a great client to work with and let me run wild with the design details. Humor is difficult to pull off in design because of vastly different opinions on what is funny. RG had a ‘why we run’ section that I paired with old yearbook...
