Enjoy.

Unique as the design itself, a designers workspace is always a glimpse into the inner personality of the creative mind.  Through the years I've shared my time with a myriad of different desks, cubicles, and open workspaces.  I've decided to take my interest to the next level by starting a Flickr photoset dedicated to the countless different workspaces we create within.

Share your photos with the project by emailing your space to tonydev (at) gmail.com.

Coming into work this morning I was greeted by a barrage of Earth Day treats put on by Hornall Anderson's Green Team.  The lobby was filled with individually potted plants, which are now adding some much needed nature to my green deprived desk.  Custom printed tees and a some-what-hilarious e-card (see above) were also waiting for each and every employee.

To a lot of people, Earth Day is another excuse for hippies and transients to get half naked, dance, and smoke pot in the park.  For the rest of us, it's a day to remember how lucky we are live on such a beautiful planet, and how it's our responsibility to make sure it stays that way for our children and their children to come.

As designers we make choices every day that have impact on the environment.  Whether we're printing posters, installing high energy interactive exhibits, or mass producing packaging, it's our responsibility to stay conscientious about how our decisions affect the environment.

Take a moment to appreciate what's around us, get yourself learned on why you should care, and do something about it.  Don't just say you will, do it.
