Brand Thinking and Other Noble Pursuits is the latest book from Debbie Millman. In this ‘Design discussions,’ we speak with the author about the book, her time as president of the AIGA, and her thoughts on the most important aspects of creating a brand.

Steve Jobs’ recent departure from Apple was met with sadness and nostalgia within the design community. And rightly so. Jobs had a unique appreciation for the value of design and allowed designers to flourish in a way that is rarely seen in business.

A decade later‚ COLLINS asks: how should we commemorate 9/11?

There’s more to Jim Henson than Kermit the Frog.

There has been an explosion of interest in infographics. Lowly excel-charts have been overshadowed by the unexpected visualizations being circulated lately. Though information design has a rich history, magazines like GOOD, Wired, and Popular Science have helped to repopularize data visualization in recent years and created a cultural interest in the data behind the headlines.

Webfonts have arrived at idsgn… and it’s about time.

We’ve all seen it. It’s on posters, T-shirts, pillows, notebooks, buttons and iPhone cases.

Introducing Newswordy, a new site from the team behind idsgn.

In the most unlikeliest location lies a typographer’s oasis.

Does it make sense to walk into a restaurant, ask the chef to make you three entrees, eat from all three plates and then skip out on the bill if you didn’t like any of the options? The answer is no.

As designers, we know color is important. But when food is your medium, color can be powerful enough to influence taste—and affect health.

On April 1st, we posted an article titled Sonoran: The next Helvetica. Yes, this was an April Fool’s Day joke—and yes, the actual typeface we showed was Arial. But it wasn’t all lies.

Introducing Sonoran, 2011’s most anticipated typeface release.

It’s cheesy, neon orange, and makes a meal for four in 9 minutes. In this Parallels, we look at Kraft (Macaroni and Cheese) Dinner.

Our industry can seem pretty negative.

Design studios are like restaurants in New York City, every day one opens while another one closes its doors.

“Decide who you are, decide what you want to do, and then do it, because it is surely possible.”

Flat. Generic. Invisible. Myriad is the ninth installment in our ‘Know your type’ series.

Everyone loves Marian Bantjes.

Anyone hear that sound? It’s a giant turd being dropped into your mailbox.

The professional fields of design and music have crossed paths for years. Each constantly fueling the other through visual, audible and emotional expression.

The world’s largest coffee chain reveals an updated logo, removing its ‘Starbucks Coffee’ wordmark.

As we enter a new year, we have taken a moment to look back over our most memorable features of 2010.

Need some last minute holiday gift ideas? The contributors at idsgn came together again to share what’s on our radar this year. Don’t forget the wrapping paper!

We complete our Fresh & Hungry series with Always With Honor, a Portland, Oregon collective consisting of Elsa and Tyler Lang, and a dog named Zoe.

Continuing our Fresh & Hungry series, Chris Rubino speaks with New York-based art director Christine Gignac.

Chris Rubino speaks with Brooklyn-based designer and illustrator Jennifer Daniel, our next Fresh & Hungry subject.

HelloVon is a studio established by London-based illustrator Von, our next Fresh & Hungry subject.

Continuing our Fresh & Hungry series, Chris Rubino speaks with Kansas City-based illustrator Micah Lidberg.

Tomas Mankovsky is a director based in London, UK and our third Fresh & Hungry subject.

Next up in our Fresh & Hungry series, Chris Rubino speaks with ADC Young Gun winner Frank Chimero—a graphic designer, illustrator, teacher, and writer in Portland, Oregon.

As part of our Fresh & Hungry series, past ADC Young Gun recipient Chris Rubino speaks with new winner Jessica Walsh, a multidisciplinary designer living in New York City.

I’m always excited to take a good look at the winners of the ADC Young Guns awards and, of course, scope out the competition.

8 Faces is a magazine about typography, created by British designer Elliot Jay Stocks.

Olimpia Zagnoli is an Italian illustrator whose distinctive, character-driven work is marked by an iconic simplicity following in the tradition of Paul Rand, Bruno Munari and Charley Harper—resulting in images that are uniquely simple, fun, captivating and sometimes sad.

Designed by a perfectionist and self-taught printer, Baskerville is the eighth font to be explored in our ‘Know your type’ series.

MySpace has an identity crisis. Can a new logo revive the dying social network?
