β 5 Keys to accessible web typography β "I wrote about fluid web typography in last monthβs blog post and I realised that a lot of the popular implementation techniques come with accessibility issues. So I wanted to go back and revisit the basics and the best practices of accessible web typography."
β Product design team process β "Defining a process for your team will never be finished, youβre always tweaking it or shifting things around to see how/what works for your team. It never ends, it just continues to evolve. This article assumes that you have a basic understanding of the software development lifecycle. Creating a process for a design team you have to really understand the business, the people, the context of their realities and how all those things come together."
β The Transformative Power Of Technology: Reinventing The Electric Car β "The landscape of electric cars has become crowded. In the affordable market, major automakers offer vehicles that feel more playful than futuristic. And in the luxury market, innovation and craft are eclipsed by the antics of CEOs and stakeholders, causing finances to cast large shadows over eco-friendliness."
β Made in Fukushima visualises the decontamination of rice fields in the wake of nuclear disaster β "Made in Fukushima is the product of a collaboration between US-German manufacturer of sensors for agriculture and environmental science METER, communication agency Serviceplan Innovation and digital design studio Moby Digg and photographer Nick Frank, all based in Munich. METERβs mission bridges science and humanitarianism to provide sustainable solutions to issues related to climate change and the detrimental impact of human intervention on the natural landscape."
Typeface of the week

Designed by Marco Condello, Necto Mono is available in one style (Regular) with full European language support. Open source, free for personal and commercial use.
