sorry its been so long, but sometimes design gets in the way of my tweeting...#designerproblems


Wow! you are a good doodler, but can you draw a hand that doesn't look like a monster that has rigamortis.

Don't use hobo, just don't. Unless that's what you want to be when your design career fails


Simplifying is harder than cluttering the page with useless elements.. don't be a design hoarder

Gill sans is the like the ugly duckling, except it will always be ugly until it gets plastic surgery and becomes proxima nova


Don't use neon colours on a funeral invitation or neutrals on a disco poster
