We’ve just discovered that KTULXU added BootB as ‘The best website for creative people‘ to bestuff gallery:

Do you agree with the opinion?
We’d really apreciate your support and your votes! :)

Today everyone knows what a “mobile phone” is and almost everyone has one; but just few decades ago it was something unbelievable.

Since those days mobile phones changed their design dramatically. In order to envision the future let’s look back at the evolutionary process.

There is a nice movie done by “e2save mobiles” (UK) showing the long way from the first Motorola device till the nowadays and a little bit in the future:

Last month Wired magazine chose 12 most notable mobile phones for their on-line article “From Brick to Slick: A History of Mobile Phones“:

For those who prefer to have more structured information there is a History of Mobile Telephones presented by Computer Networking and the Telecommunications Research department of the University of Salford.

We’d like to share with you The First Russian web magazine for designers:

It was started in 2003 and since then has collected a very lovely set of links to the portfolios of Russian, British and American designers as well as 100+ design resources and a list of design contests. The Pitch “Design the mobile phone of 2020!” is in that list!

Yes! We want you to share with us which 5 Brands describe you.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any item of this Brand (you may feel as a Ferrari but you don’t have the possibility to buy it :)
Only the “Brand spirit” counts! So, list the 5 Brands that match your spirit.

Then, you can also enjoy visualizing them on “5brand“.

We look forward to know which brand you would be!

American Pie? It must be a superpatriotic movie, perhaps about the Kennedy family or the Clinton’s one.
Blades of Glory? For sure it talks about celebration, victory, triumph… a film about war indeed.
Rush Hour? Most likely it’s an action drama, I love suspense… let’s go!

To make the story short, would you have thought of all 3 movies as a comedies just reading their titles? Never.
Do you think that people who enjoy action drama reveled in Rush Hour? Never 2 (the revenge!)

2 considerations:

Is there anybody that personifies the BootB proposition of “Unlimited Creativity”?
In my opinion the answer is yes and his name is
Octavio Ocampo

If you already know him, I’m confident that you believe me. If not, don’t believe me but watch this!

Do you remember an article about BootB published in the Spanish magazine “Brandlife” on October 20, 2008? We’ve mentioned this publication in our blog some time ago.

Today, thanks to artisdesign, you can read it in English as well. You can find it on our Media (About Us) page or download a PDF file directly by this link.

Many thanks to artisdesign for this translation once again, it’s great to feel your support!

Do you know the project called “Design and Design“?

You should know it for at least 2 reasons:

	1. Every day the designer Marc Praquin, the founder of Design and Design, chooses two great designs and shares them with the world. Then, after a year, all designs that were awarded online are published in the Design and Design Book of the Year.
	2. Yesterday, Marc has announced a new challenge within the Design and Design project: “Best Bio Packaging”. He said that he is “convinced that a consumer and environment friendly packaging can match with mass marketing and commercial needs”. As a proof he will publish a new book called “Best Bio Packaging“.

It’s a great opportunity for you to send your concepts… also those which participated to a BootB Pitch, but were not chosen by the Brands.

It would be great to see a design made by a BootB Creator in a Design and Design book (or even in both books! :)

Have a creative day!

I would like you to answer to this question. That’s it!
Just tell me your “quick & dirty” why?

For those who didn’t have anything to answer or who love the subject, then the above shown Martin Lindstrom’s book is a must (I am writing this not because he is an old friend of mine :)

After 20 years of marketing I thought I knew the answer. But after reading this book I discovered that I was only at the 1st floor of a skyscraper. What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world is much more complex than what I thought. Buying decisions take place below the surface, so deep within our subconscious minds… such a fascinating subject for those who work with creativity!
