Sometimes You Just Know It's Cool


From the way it feels... or looks and handles. Or the way it fits your hand. You may not be a designer, but you just know. Sometimes great design simply jumps out at you. It appears along a line of boring same-0l's and pulls your eye like a laser. This great little blog is all about design and the common things we all use. I would love to see one on portfolios some time. In the meantime, I think we can glean some great presentation ideas from stuff like this.

About The Dieline

TheDieline.com was founded by Andrew Gibbs, a senior packaging designer in Southern California. “I started The Dieline because as a packaging designer, I wanted a resource where I could go to see the latest design trends and styles. When he realized something like that didn’t exist, The Dieline was born.” The Dieline was launched in January of 2007, and has quickly become the web’s leading packaging design blog. “Product packaging not only secures and protects a product, it is the direct link between the brand and the consumer. It is what determines if a product will be a success or failure. Packaging plays a pivotal role in influencing a consumer’s perception of the brand and product.” TheDieline.com defines good packaging and is the ultimate resource for packaging designers in the field.

Enjoy.
