Operation Dissertation Stress has been occurring for the past three months and I've managed to neglect my blog so this is a belated post on Pantone's very delightful colour of the year. There isn't a shade of purple I don't like so I'm rather pleased to say the least. I think Radiant Orchid is fun but sophisticated and mysterious but very honest. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes of the colour purple.

The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog
I have a bit of a thing about typography; if it's in Comic Sans, throw it in the bin. Fonts and layouts, those are what lure me in, if it looks good then it probably is good, that's why I pick up a magazine or a lookbook or even a flyer. My pet hate is a bad website or business card, the biggest turn-off when I'm looking at buying or booking something. A little bit of typography love goes a long way. I spend most days at my internship telling my boss how awful this website or that website is, it really sells a business short. Writing this has given me the realisation that I should probably get a life but someone needs to care about these things, yes? Oh, I do love a good font.
