Trying to capture the essence of an object or idea with only a few lines and at the same time maintaining its elegance is pretty much design in a nutshell. That’s what so great about icons, they’re tiny poems. I decided it would be a fun project to attempt to sum up

Or perhaps displayed in some other prominent location in your home. This 24 centimeter (9.5 inch) figurine has been masterfully crafted out of the finest crystal by Atlantis – one of the premier glassmaking companies of Portugal.

I love this Feedbot cartoon by Matt Forsythe (who also draws the online comic ojingogo) of Coming Up for Air. Best of all, Matt has tagged this cute bot with Creative Commons attributions, so you can use it in your blog.
