Journalists write. They don’t design.
With newspapers nationwide suffering from lost advertising, revenue, and market share, how can we imagine a solution that can breathe new life into these failing brands? The start of some of my thinking is of the role designers may have in saving the newspaper. A new breed I am calling the "designalist".

The
USGBC's
LEED green building rating system has been embraced as the golden-child of architectural mega-firms and corporate real estate developers, alike. But has this dummed-down approach to green design done more harm than good?

I've admired Tim Russert since before he joined Meet The Press. As a young political organizer I recall seeing him on NBC during the 1988 election. Studying the art of rhetoric, I watched with intrigue during the 1992 Election when he grilled the primary candidates. On Friday, many of us at DMD crowded around the TV to hear the news of his passing and expressed the same sense of having lost a respected friend. The rest of this weekend has been non-stop coverage of this giant in the world of journalism. After the jump, I don’t have much to say so I created a word cloud from the New York Times, LA Times, and Washington Post obituaries. I like the idea of remembering him through words; it reminds me of what he taught me each Sunday morning.

Hospitality Design Expo happens every year in Las Vegas. This year, though, it has been placed on the same week as American Institute Of Architects in Boston, and the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in NYC. So our team has been in full-blown trade show mode, not sipping, but gulping down design. Here is what the media is saying so far, a round-up, round-up if you will allow me.

I'll be posting more on this going forward, but for now, let me tell
you why we were so seduced by MicroCredit Enterprises.

Consumer decisions on sustainability; corporate investment in sustainability. Advertising clutter. DVR usage. Who really clicks on ads? Bloggers are a nice demographic, but not all the next generation is as online savvy as you think. Fine out more in the metrics round-up.

Ever wonder how you can get into the tents of New York Fashion Week? During my FIT days, I was able to snag a gig as a dresser. One year, I eventually managed to land a seat and enjoy the show. See how The W Hotel made it easy to see the shows, and garnered some good recognition.
