5 of the Best Book Covers of 2014

http://www.printmag.com/featured/5-of-the-best-book-covers-of-2014/?lid=JFprnl122414&j=711448&e=shutaleva@gmail.com&l=115970_HTML&u=26286267&mid=1303284&jb=757&et_mid=711448&rid=248939721

The best book covers not only manage to convey a sense of the words within, but they also stand alone as portable works of art. A good book cover must somehow take the poetry of the writer’s words and transform it into a visual that embodies the emotional power of the text.

In-House Spirit

http://www.howdesign.com/articles/npr-design-in-house-design/?lid=JFhwnl122214&j=711263&e=shutaleva@gmail.com&l=115971_HTML&u=26245859&mid=1303284&jb=753&et_mid=711263&rid=248939721

Working in-house at NPR puts designers close to news and subject matter that is topical, relevant, critical and intriguing. And they get to work with it on a daily basis, producing visuals, applications and products for a large and extensive audience around the globe that wants access to that content. Working in-house provides that rare combination of both owning and distributing the design you produce, and one of the main reasons Dauer enjoys working at NPR is because he’s where content creation happens, and he gets to provide the framework and design that delivers it to audiences

Gestalt Theory in Typography & Design Principles

http://www.howdesign.com/resources-education/online-design-courses-education/gestalt-theory-typography-design-principles
Shared visual characteristics automatically create relationships. The more alike objects appear, the more likely they are to be seen as a group. Note that similarity is based upon what an object looks like, not what an object is. Two dogs on a page do not automatically have similarity because they are dogs. One could be a Great Dane and the other a Chihuahua—dogs that have very little in common.

Using East West Theory of Feng Shui to Get Married

http://www.wofs.com/index.php/love-mainmenu-34/1114-using-east-west-theory-of-feng-shui-to-get-married
Finding someone to marry used to be so much simpler. There was a time (not that long ago) where you’d simply reach a marriageable age and your parents would arrange for the village matchmaker to pay a visit. These days, match-making has gone out of fashion and the priorities of young adults have completely changed. All around the world, we see the rate of marriage plummeting as the new generation of adults choose to focus on career building rather than starting a family.
