Standout Designs for theWeb
I’ll show you how to uncover a company’s story, develop a distinctive visual language, and combine colour, typography, and layout to create designs that people remember.
52 weeks of Inspired Design Decisions #25 — Erik Nitsche
Throughout 2020, I’ve committed to designing 52 designs for a series of Inspired Design Decisions. This is week 25 and my design this week was inspired by Erik Nitsche. Erik Nitsche was born in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1908 and was a pioneer in the design of books, reports, and other printed materials. In 1955, Nitsche began working as art director at engineering company General Dynamics where he designed a 420-page book on the company’s history entitled Dynamic America.

While articles about how to use CSS Grid and Flexbox are common, when and why to use them is hardly ever discussed. Very few people are taught design fundamentals or see inspiring examples to learn from. Through this unique “Inspired design decisions” magazine series, Andy Clarke is changing that. Each magazine includes a high quality PDF, plus examples of HTML/CSS code for you to learn from and use in your projects. Only £3.99 per issue. If you’re not 100% happy with any magazine, you get a full refund and can even keep the files.
