A designer named Joe Bauldoff has posted images from a promotional publication from the 80′s. It’s an attempt to streamline and improve our much celebrated Helvetica. There are definately improvements here in the construction as well as white space. But I don’t think “good” is the main charm of Helvetica. Anyways… meet Haas Unica.

(Thanks to ever so awesome Design Observer for the link.)

Saggy Nuts in Dubai
Its really quite odd (and ridiculous) what actually gets press in Architecture, seriously. I am starting to see a trend with the press reporting on these hideous concepts and actual projects going up (or floating) in Dubai. For example, this latest project was posted on Gizmodo, but originally on NPR. I mean, yeah the floating idea is pretty cool, but did everyone overlook that god awful and slightly perverted (saggy nuts) building concept? Maybe we should start also reporting Graphic Design that uses inner bevels and comic sans? I am all for progression, new ideas, but damn make it look good, yeah?
