Birth of a new blog
6 CommentsOn the topic of miscellaneous on November 20th
After 1+ years of running The Design Cubicle, I’ve decided to expand my blogging horizons and start a more personal blog that focuses more on my work, processes, and experiences as a graphic designer, as well as offer information that is of interest to me and the design community, share discoveries, resources and inspiration, tutorials and spread other news that is important to designers.
For those unfamiliar with me — I’m a graphic designer from the Philadelphia. I collaborate mostly on corporate identity and branding, but I’m experienced in building all kinds of quality, strategic design, both in print and on the web. My work focuses on solving problems by balancing usability and accessibility with memorable, timelessness designs.
My other blog, The Design Cubicle aims to not only teach, inspire and helps other designers, but also focuses on client education and design awareness.
I hope you enjoy my new blog and look forward to reading many of your comments. Feel free to subscribe to my feed to receive free updates as they are posted.

I prefer the colors here over your other sites. I look forward to learning this blog too and having it as part of daily readings. Kudos!

Raffy,
Thanks for the comment and I agree with you on the colors. The Design Cubicle is actually in the midst of a custom redesign as well and steps away from the template I started with so I hope to bring the same level of energy and excitement to the TDC redesign as well.

Hey Brian,
I really dig the simplicity, color schemes, and most of all your quality articles. I just stumbled across your new blog today and I read each article and was happy I did~ You offer a lot of great advice and views, which challenges me to think further into my craft. I appreciate your interview as well on Design Informer, that was a great interview. I feel typography is my weak point, and I now have a good place to learn and grow from.
Thanks for your hard work, I will be back for more lessons~
