Can a Venn Diagram make you smile?

Music Diagram

People Diagram

The answer is yes! In my quest to find a few examples of successful venn diagrams illustrating theory, I came across a few diagrams that made me smile and thought to share.

Inspiration Found

Just as the new design students in the first year drawing class have been asked to share where they find inspiration, I thought I would share a few sources of inspiration that I have used while designing over the years. I have always been inspired by those people around me, whether they are classmates, fellow designers, faculty, or artists. I am inspired by the motivation to continually raise the bar and adopt new skills and techniques exhibited by my community.

I am also inspired by the shear joy that design has brought and will continue to bring to people. I love to find a design or environment that instantly brings a smile to my face and encourages me to explore. These are traits similarly found in nature, which makes in so surprise that many designers are inspired by nature.
