The Role of a Designer? Encourage More People to Become Designers

It's fun being a designer. We designers use our hands, heads, and hearts. We get to invent things and then make them into real things--things that we want. We use our heads for strategy, tactics, science, and thinking ahead. We actually make things with our hands: drawings, models, and samples. And we use our own emotions to connect with the hearts so that people will want what we created. The combination is what makes being a designer so interesting and valuable.

ROLLS ROYCE PHANTOM SHOOT-EM-UP

Video: Armoured car company assaults Chichester's finest

Er... click the link if you want to watch a bunch of Germans pumping bullets into a Rolls-Royce Phantom before blowing it up with a land-mine. And let's face it, who doesn't!

The savage assault is all in the name of research, apparently, as German armoured car company Mutec carries out ballistic tests on one of its conversions.

And to think we worry about handing back press cars with kerbing damage...

40+ Stunning and Creative Graffiti Artworks

Most people have the impression that graffiti was started by young vandals trying to “make a statement”, however graffiti has been known to go as far back as 30 000BC. The Ancient Romans and Ancient Greeks, used to scribble on their walls, descriptions of their current day events. Then, in the 1900’s, graffiti in the form of vandalism, started appearing all of the world. With pointless scribbles of “crew” names being tainted all over cities, it’s not surprising that for a long while graffiti had such a negative connotation associated with it.

However, as the years have passed on, a few people have taken graffiti to the next level. Taking it from something that people generally frown at, to something that makes people go WOW! Most people are even going as far as calling graffiti street art. The truth is, that there is a sense of beauty in a lot of the graffiti being created today. Beautiful portraits of people, or abstract art that makes you look twice. A graffiti artist is, essentially, a modern day artist, his choice of canvas is just different, unique and grabs the attention of a myriad of people.
