Creattica: Design Inspiration



Creattica: Design Inspiration

So, Since most of us know about designspiration, i decided to forego using that as this weeks post and instead found a very similar site. (designspiration is pretty cool if you haven't seen it already. It reminds me of pinterest, except cooler because its for designers.) The Site I found is called Creattica. As said before it I very similar to Designspiration but it never hurts to have more sources for inspiration. I know a lot of us struggle trying to finding something to do when it comes to a project and I always turn to one of these sites. Mainly for a little help for an idea, but also to find what is cool and "hip" I guess is the word kids are using these days. I don't want to  make something out dated and i want to make something that is going to stand out to someone and go "wow, thats pretty neat". Right? It is. Thanks to these websites, you can get that wow factor and help you find something that is "pretty neat".


With Creattica, you can look at what is new on there website and just browse through the front page for ideas, you can look at stuff by category by just using the Explore button or you can search for anything or something specific. 


I think this website will definitely be a great source of inspiration for me but also something cool too look at and also what you can do with certain things and certain programs. Being able to just look at what someone has done in photo shop makes me want to try it out and see what I can do. It also helps fine a lot of similar designs too so that you can branch off of an idea you have and see what you can do with it. 












My favorite feature though is the wall papers. I do like inspiration but being able to download a new wallpaper is pretty sweet too.

Sam Spratt

One of my favorite graphic designers is Sam Spratt. This guy has a seriously unique and awesome style. I like his use of warm and cool colors to create a melting effect with his designs. I am a total photoshop novice so watching his videos where he creates theses works of art it is really inspiring/intimidating. His art is becoming more well known and he is being commissioned by more and more clients because of his unique style, such as FX and Game Informer.   I hope that one day I can create great works of art like Sam.  Hope you enjoy his work as much as I do. Sam's work
