What a DVD idle screen would look like if it’s designer was a chubby British dude who likes his fry-ups.

The Design Museum

 

Today as a treat and a shot of inspiration, I visited the Design Museum, off Kensington High Street. One of London’s newest museums, the DM showcases examples of everyday design throughout the last century or so, from men’s shavers to graphic design. It’s a small and quiet museum, but very fascinating if you have an interest in design at all.

The new £1 coin

 

Today is the first day of issue of the UK’s new ultra-secure bimetallic one-pound coin, the first major overhaul of the denomination since its minting began in 1983. It comes with microprinting and a latent image device underneath the Queen’s profile. Banks here at Tottenham Court Road in London will be among the first to distribute the coin to customers.

The scary Snapchat face filter, back in 2008 when there was no Snapchat. Could this have been its inspiration?
