George Kvasnikov shared a really cool visual and interaction design project on his Behance profile. It's for FuboTV, a sports-centric Internet TV streaming service with the world's most popular live sports and entertainment content. The service offers access to national and regional networks via TVs, tablets, mobile devices, and desktop computers.
There's a lot to love about this project, first the dark theme. I know it might sound silly, but the dark theme makes more sense for TV interface. Second, the bold typography. When designing for TV you are always nine feet away from the TV. It's important to make things easier to read. Those are basic things but when putting together alongside with good imagery the result is a stunning example of product design.
Take a look behind the scenes of the full redesign of National Geographic World Atlas IOS App. The design process included examining and updating the features in the existing app, with a focus on elegant typography and usability.
I really do enjoy surfing on Dribbble for inspiration, it's really a great platform to see what people are working on and possibly some of the latest trends in action.
With the launch from our friends at May1Reboot, we've been seeing hundreds and hundreds of portfolios from the community which is a great thing. So many works done with so many talented people all over the industry.
Personal projects are fun, we all know that. They give us all the freedom to try things that would be more difficult if we had to consider all the constraints of a real project. For visual design it's an exercise that helps to explore different ideas.
