David Navarro and Martyna Sobecka have traveled the width and breadth of Eastern Europe, photographing the region’s unique brutalist architecture. "Eastern Blocks II," the duo's new book, captures some of these stark scenes.

if there are any #GNOME designers/artists (gnomes? gnome heads? gnomish sourcerers? gnaphic gnesigners?) seeing this, does it comply with the HIG in your opinion? what would you suggest changing if not?

the cheesecrater icon uses the standard rustacean image, which doesn't have that smooth, rounded look the HIG usually suggests, but i lack the skill to make a "blobby" version of ferris. :ferris_og:

the crates browser, with its triple-pane layout (third screenshot), is the most complicated of them, but it's based on the design of the crates.io website, which displays the readme alongside a right-aligned "metadata" pane.

(also: either it's very hard to write descriptive alt text for UI design screenshots, or i am very bad at it. possibly both.)

The "Mercury" - a streamliner passenger train which operated in the Midwest between 1936 and 1959.

It was designed by the legendary industrial designer Henry Dreyfuss.

Comission for a certain Magazine doing an article about Joji. Editorial was cool about me sharing a timelapse as long as I don't say where it'll be printed.

Born in 1838, Margaret Knight invented a machine that could efficiently build paper bags with a design that made packing easier.

And right on cue - for those who follow #HistoryRemix - a man tried to steal credit.

Charles Annan glimpsed her prototype & filed a patent. Thankfully, many people had seen Knight's invention + she had the blueprints.

Knight took Annan to court & won! She received her patent in 1871 & went on to receive dozens more. smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian… #history #design

The only two design choices available aren’t β€œfunnel everyone to mastodon.social” or β€œpresent a list of thousands of servers.” The default button could automatically round-robin a large list of servers that are known to be run by good actors. This is a solved problem. The solution is not being used, in this case, because, clearly, mastodon.social does want to grow.

Now this awfully ugly #darkmode hype even reached #spacesuit #design - Scientifically total nonsense, but hey it looks sooo cool!

Library staff & patrons were sad when APH discontinued the Peg Slate, a beloved Braille learning tool that we use for word-building & games.
But thanks to Noam and friends at Makers Making Change NYC, we have a fresh take on the classic idea β€” Braille cells that are poppable, swappable, rackable & so colorful! You can download and print your own right here:

Another T-Shirt illustration from some time ago. Always been a huge fan of anatomy, so drawing a massive and muscular troll was a blast. Inked using a Raphael #2 Brush dripping with Black Magic Ink on Strathmore. Old school!

Typically, with masculine lines, you go for a more chiseled angle to the linework (maybe a crow quill), but I wanted a more supple approach for this image.

Hi everyone! I'm Adlan & I'm a UI Technical Designer at a AAA studio by day & a solo gamedev/artist by night!

Looking forward to meet new people & make more meaningful connections here. I hope this platform works better for artists & gamedevs compared to that bird platform πŸ˜†

Here's a showcase of my previous & current games! (These are all GIFs in case they don't autoplay here πŸ˜…)
