Resources
Heres a bunch of resources I have stacked up while blogger has been down.
To the right a link for Design sponge is blog full of design, bursting with it, it is my number one resource, I love it, its in my favorites under a folder named blog and daily. Its been
great for 50s design, I've come across so much, the only difficulty it doesn't say this is neo retro or this is 50s design, no jargon here, good for reading not good when
searching for specifics. Check out just a few images posted from the blog.
