Design Blogs We Love

 

Studio Designer finds great inspiration in the vast array of design blogs and design-business blogs found on the Internet, many of which have considerable influence on not only interior designers but the design world at large. In this post, we share five of our favorite blogs that may just spark some creative ideas of your own or provide some essential advice for your design business.

 

 

BUSINESS OF HOME by Editor at Large

As the daily media of record for the home industry and interior design professionals, the Business of Home recently changed its name from Editor at Large as a way to declare more precisely the overall mission of their publication. This blog is a great way to keep up-to-date on all major design industry events, the latest and greatest from your favorite top designers, regional design news, design job postings, and even great editorial design advice articles. This blog is robust, chock full of content, and even provides a quarterly print publication.

 

 

SWISS MISS

This is a fun and engaging blog to visit on a daily basis as blog author Tina Roth Eisenberg shares her passion for creativity, design, and artistic entrepreneurship. As a former design director, Tina runs a few companies that support the overall design community like Creative Mornings, a global monthly lecture series; created a phone app called TeuxDeux; founded Tattly, an artisan temporary tattoo business, and runs a co-working space for design professionals called Friends. Not only does Tina post great creative finds on a near-daily basis but she has a great “Friday Link Pack” post every week with an incredible concentration of intriguing links to design and even some pop-culture content.
