Finding inspi­ra­tion for design can be dif­fi­cult. It’s a con­stant quest. The Muse is never sta­tionary. It is her nature to move and change; as designers, we must move and change with her.

This week, A List Apart has a couple of inter­esting arti­cles about redesigning your own web­site. Per­sonal projects can be the most dif­fi­cult to direct. It’s easy to lose per­spec­tive. Per­haps these arti­cles can be of use.

The Guggen­heim’s “Frank Lloyd Wright: From Within Out­ward” exhi­bi­tion is ending this week. This man’s work has inspired many people. It’s always good to look at it again.

The MoMA asks “What Was Good Design” in this exhibit of objects from the post-WWII era. This is prob­ably the museum’s way of having an exhibit without spending a lot of money, but there is value in his­tor­ical perspective.
