Good First Impressions: The Home Page
The home page of your website is like a first interview for a new job, except you’re dealing with potential customers. Making a good first impression is imperative, but if you say too much — or not enough — then you’ve potentially ruined a business relationship, as people often visit websites before visiting, calling or e-mailing. If your home page is confusing, they aren’t likely to peruse further. They might even believe your entire business operates in a confusing, disordered way.

The Batmobile doesn’t have much on the Wazuma V12 quad
Maybe it’s just me, and tell me if I’m wrong here, but the Wazuma V12 quad kicks a lot of ass. The Wazuma V12 was created by Lazareth Automotive in France and the quad runs on bio-ethanol fuel, so oil prices aren’t even a thought. The Wazuma is powered by a 5.0 V12 BMW engine, and is in the shape of a “W”. The front two wheels are spaced far apart, and the rear two wheels are closer together.
Genius idea: The Invisible Bike Helmet
Helmets are the most important accessory when riding a bike. But to some, their too cool for helmets and would rather risk injury then be caught wearing one.

I’m a big fan of well thought out and all around good design. I mean who isn’t? Even when it comes to motorized bicycle racing, design comes into play. Take for instance this custom racing bike built by Jeff Wolf, owner of Wolf Creative Customs.
The history and art of the logo

The Cintiq 24HD touchscreen offers the ultimate design experience
Creating digital artwork is no easy task without the right tools. Many still compose art in a non-digital world, then use Photoshop or similar image manipulation tools to digitize their work. What if you could use a touchscreen device which encompassed all your artist design needs to create videos, art and animation, all in one beautiful user interface?
The speaker gets stylized with a sleek and modern design
Audio speakers have come a long way, from big and bulky of years past to now, where they are small and compact. The natural progression of speakers will be to make them even more compact, lightweight, and wireless.

Concept Design: Cursum stroller for wheelchair users
Parenting with full control of my legs and mobility is hard enough as it is. I can’t imagine being wheelchair bound and having to also be a parent as well. The task must be monumental and as stated in this video, some wheelchair users even feel guilty for not being able to help more. It’s sad, but it’s real. Luckily, designer Cindy Sjöblom came up with a genius idea - a wheelchair stroller called the Cursum. I can’t say how much of a great idea this is.
