Design Observer Articles

I really liked the fun and creative way that Stephen Doyle played with words vs. what people see in the images. He would create the words out of real objects, then manipulate them to get whatever effect he wanted. I also found the article "13 Ways" to have some good design points. It is easier to pick a standard set of typefaces, and only work off of those, but also expanding your collection is never a bad thing. Sometimes using something that is ugly, or something that goes against the idea you are trying to represent works better in the end.
