Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

If you fol­low Kelli Anderson on Dribbble, as I do, you may have also been anx­iously antic­i­pat­ing the launch of her lat­est project, a pair of news­pa­pers to accom­pany Martha Rosler’s recent Meta Monumental Garage Sale Exhibition at MoMA here in New York. After catch­ing small snip­pets of the work for the last cou­ple of months, I was excited to get a closer look and learn more about the final product.

At a basic level, the design is beau­ti­ful—incred­i­bly pleas­ant to read, and by far the most inter­est­ing and engag­ing news­pa­per design I’ve seen. But it would be remiss of me to fail to men­tion the incred­i­ble com­plex­ity, of both thought and exe­cu­tion, that went into this project — com­plex­ity that Kelli can best describe in her own words. She’s writ­ten an insight­ful post about her think­ing and process over on her blog; so be sure to head over there for quite a lot more.
