50 Most Dangerous & unforgettable Volcano Photographs | Dzinepress

Amazing images although many are wrongly attributed and some are not of volcanoes but Geysers (they are of the original Geysir which they draw it’s name from).

1. Avoid A Reactionary Workflow
2. Strip Projects To Three Primary Elements
3. Measure Meetings With Action Steps
4. Reduce Your Insecurity Work

Tyler Thompson Redesigns The Boarding Pass

I was heading back from New York where I had met up with fellow designer Dustin Curtis. If you are not aware of Dustin’s take on American Airlines, go read this. Anyway, I was inspired by Dustin and his attitude towards shittily designed things, to say the least. I was bored so I started rummaging through my stuff trying to find something to read when I grabbed my boarding pass.

Jessica Hische’s list.

Personally, I never went through those early stages. Garamond has been my shiz all life and it probably always will be. But this is funny, anyway. Hoefler & Frere-Jones FTW.
