Amazing Surrealism Inspiration in Digital Arts

Web Tips » Inspiration » February 4, 2009
Source abduzeedo »

I'm a big fan of Surrealism. The whole concept of trying to express the subconscious and dreams through art is very fascinating to me. Some of the paintings by Salvador Dali and Max Ernst are really intriguing. Every time you look, you have a different interpretation of what they meant to express. And these days we've been seeing a lot of that in the digital art world; what they call Neosurrealism. Neosurrealism is a combined imagery of dreams, fantasies, and subconscious mind visions in fine art painting, digital art graphic, and photography. In the mid 1980s, modern computer technologies brought a large amount of additional depicting power to contemporary artists not possible by hand. The arrival of desktop publishing and the introduction of software applications introduced a generation of artists to computer image manipulation and 3D image creation that had previously been unachievable. There are thousands of artists, digital and traditional fine art media, who create neo-surrealistic, surreal fantasy, and fantasy realism artworks comparable to Neosurrealism.

Lately I’ve been trying to build up my library of design inspiration. I picked up some very cool books last time I was at the museum, and my collection is steadily growing. So I was very excited when Radim Malinic of Brand Nu contacted me about his new inspirational book release. If your not familiar with Radim, I suggest you check out his extensive portfolio. He has some very amazing work, and has produced designs for some huge clients. This book is basically a collection of recent designs. The work ranges in topic, but it is all beautiful and inspirational! Radim was nice enough to send me a copy, so below I’m attaching some shots I took of the book.

I think that seeing creative work is the most important thing to improve your skills, and not only graphic design work, but also other disciplines such as painting, fashion, animation, sculpting… even the work of an amateur artist of the end of the world is good material to get your graphic knowledge increase. I often try to imagine, for example, how a song that I’m hearing, can be represented in shapes and colors. I mean that you can get inspiration from everywhere, and when you get inspired by something outside of the graphic world, the result is often more surprising.

The design of 404 error pages is often overlooked and underestimated. However, designed carefully, these pages can make a random visitor stay on your website, take a look around and eventually find the information he or she was looking for in the first place. Effective 404 error pages communicate why a particular page couldn’t be displayed and what users can do next. A search box and list of useful resources (possibly related to the missing page) could be helpful in this case. We’ve already covered the design of 404 error pages in previous posts. In them, we also covered some interesting and useful ideas for designing 404 pages. Now, it’s time for a fresh dose of 404-error inspiration. This article presents 50 more examples of beautiful and original 404 error designs. Some of them are beautiful but not user-friendly, others are user-friendly but not really beautiful. Please use these examples as a source of inspiration; hopefully, this showcase has something for everybody.

Colors In Corporate Branding And Design

Web Tips » Inspiration » January 29, 2009
Source smashingmagazine »

Color is a major consideration in any Web design. Whether for an individual, small company, or major corporation, color scheme is one of the most significant factors in the overall look and appearance of a website. In some cases, the designer may have the sole discretion in making color choices, but many times a color scheme has already been established and needs to be followed. In situations where a company already has a strong brand, color usage for the website can either build or take away from this. In this article, we’ll take a look at the impact that website color schemes have on the overall branding of a company, and we’ll also look at plenty of examples. We won’t be going into the subjects of color choices for branding or the psychology of colors, but rather we’ll look at established companies to see if the colors in their website branding are consistent with the rest of their marketing.
