So rather than go to a lot of average restaurants, I’d rather go for broke and blow the budget on an incredible meal, then spend the rest of the time slumming it. You’ll learn more about almost everything in life by experiencing the very best and the very worst of something, than only experiencing the middle ground.”<br/><br/> - <em>Some bloke on the internet.</em>http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1389706806http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1389706806Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:39:07 +0100quoteshunkforumlife“I asked him if he would come up with a few options. And he said, “No. I will solve your problem for you. And you will pay me. And you don’t have to use the solution. If you want options, go talk to other people. But I’ll solve your problem for you the best way I know how. And you use it or not. That’s up to you. You’re the client. But you pay me.” And there was a clarity about the relationship that was refreshing.”<br/><br/> - <em>Steve Jobs on working with designer Paul Rand on the NeXT logo</em>http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1361248069http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1361248069Wed, 20 Oct 2010 22:36:50 +0100steve jobspaul randdesign“The structure of form must map to the structure of meaning, and the structure of meaning must map to the structure of the context. These mappings do not flow in just one direction; they are reciprocal. The design process involves iteration, adjusting structures at each level to achieve coherence throughout.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.dubberly.com/articles/the-space-of-design.html">http://www.dubberly.com/articles/the-space-of-design.html</a></em>http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1349918060http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1349918060Tue, 19 Oct 2010 08:42:17 +0100<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_labxwnWafl1qzvkz0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>New arrival (Taken with <a href="http://instagr.am">instagram</a> at NEC office)</p>http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1319733195http://blog.ryanroberts.co.uk/post/1319733195Fri, 15 Oct 2010 12:43:37 +0100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_labnew9n7P1qzvkz0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Aye!
