Twitter Roundup: Week of 8 December.
Pinch. A Design Office delivers a daily Twitter stream we call @Pinch_Bespoke. The premise is simple: six tweets a day on issues related to brand, design, and sustainability. If we're out of the office or otherwise away from a connection, we'll do our best to keep it coming. And if there is something we can do better, we hope you'll let us know.
- Serve:
- Clients can change everything. Circling back around to consider what Columbia achieved when it focused on brand.
- Ponder:
- von Restorff Effect. A phenomenon of memory in which noticeably different things are more likely to be recalled than common things.
- Try:
- Paper. Printing. Design. Knowledge. Ed Lives Here is a source for, um, all things paper, printing and design.
- Revere:
- FFFFOUND! reminds of another ode to Criterion cover art, this time from Andrew Lindstrom of WellMedicated.
- Refine:
- Karjaluoto discusses "applying agile principles to communication design." And (sort of) announces undrln.
- Fail:
- The bombing of a new-age rock hypothesis from our pal, Byron Ferris. Byron meets Bucky Fuller. And bombs.
- Define:
- Eric Puidokas on GridFox, the Firefox extension that overlays a grid on any website. Via The Grid System.
- Leverage:
- Always keen to opportunity, VSA Partners first hires Sol Sender then posts another Obama logo interview.
- Strive:
- Adrian Frutiger Typefaces. The Complete Works. Univers, OCR-B, Méridien, Avenir. Published by Birkhäuser.
- Respect:
- Recent grad, Swedish/Aussie Magdalena Czarnecki (Tjaneski) brings it. Sweet Herb Lubalin tribute text.
- Give:
- The Use Both Sides campaign proposes a simple objective; to give paper a second chance by using both sides.
- Recycle:
- While penning the design proposal for Phase 2, we reflect on the first round of Metro's Recycle at Home.
- Celebrate:
- William Drenttel on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 60th Anniversary. For Design Observer.
- View:
- Paul Rand on the differences between aesthetics (the study of) and art itself. Via @_rosendorf_'s Type Desk.
- Register:
- New Zealand prepares for its first international typography symposium; TypeSHED11. Feb. 11-15, 2009.
- Display:
- Typo/graphic posters is a directory of just that. And a fine list of emerging talent. RT @imjustcreative
- Question:
- Adelle Charles of Fuel Your Creativity asks designers: Ethical or Unethical? An issue of personal work.
- Conclude:
- In lieu of The Tuesday Flickr set, we return to The End, a collection of mostly hand-drawn "End" titles.
- Consider:
- A new title release, Integrated Design – Mithun, from Ecotone, one of our favorite smaller publishers.
- Convene:
- It's that time. Join AIGA Portland for dMob, tomorrow at Life of Riley. Don your baddest holiday sweater.
- Speculate:
- Pinch is in the closing laps of redesigning our studio Web site. "When" is anyone's guess but we think you'll like it. More soon.
- Refer:
- The essential Graphic Artists Guild Handbook provides guidelines for Pricing and Ethics. 12th Edition.
- Craft:
- A Single Tree is an eco-centered furniture design team behind Dwell Home and Lagerfeld. Via Design Milk.

Commentary
Pinch welcomes your commentary. We have only one rule: don't be a douche. Oh, and watch your spelling and grammar. Because we'll deliberately miss the point of your comment and comment on those, instead.
