Your identity design is a tool you will use for many yrs. It is a FLAG that explains what you are all about. It tells potential clients what they can expect, & if you are well-managed––or NOT––as the case may be. What is the value of any other tool you use for 5+ yrs?? @designonething.bsky.social

This is underwhelming following last year's anemic purple. WHITE. In other words, non-committal, not enough of anything to be judged. Safe, unless you think too hard about it. Sorta like answering the question, 'what is your favorite color?' with 'clear'.

You read that white: Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year is 'Cloud Dancer'
This is the first time Pantone has chosen a shade of white. The company says it's "a lofty white that serves as a symbol of calming influence in a society rediscovering the value of quiet reflection."

Love his work. He was well known for his jazz-influenced paintings of the 1940s & 1950s––bold, brash, and colorful. It combines three of my loves: art, graphic design, & jazz.

Big data is so valuable to marketers and advertisers. But when you think about it, the things that are really valuable in life cannot be measured. Social Media thinks you are a data point. To me, you are a friend! What things should be listed on your balance sheet?

Abraham Lincoln's business card.
It was on this day in 1839 that 30-year-old Illinois state assemblyman Abraham Lincoln was admitted to practice law in the United States Circuit Court. Lincoln knew better- business cards do not have to be boring. Anything but boring. (Read the fine print!)

It's the 110th Anniversary of E=MC squared. If you love science, this is a fabulous documentary about the history and background of Einstein's theory. It's one of my favs. I've watched it three times. I'd watch it again.
