No Ideas But In Things

by Dan

I had been waiting until I had a larger collection of images and movies, but since Core 77 outed it yesterday, no sense in waiting.

Inspired first by Bill DeRouchey’s History of the Button, then by Andy Clarke’s talk at Web Directions South, in which he implored designers to look to the real world for inspiration, I have a new side project: No Ideas But In Things.

NIBIT is a collection of buttons, dials, control panels, animations, latches, etc. that could be used as a source of inspiration for interaction and interface design. It’s not overly robust now, but hopefully soon it will be.

    I see your No Idea but Things,
    the blog just very fine, and I think you blogging about panel control?
    I like your blog as much as I like history of the button
