Some days we all need a little kick to get us moving and the same goes for design inspiration. Designers are challenged each day to produce beautiful work whether it is a logo, web site, or even knick-knacks in the family room to accent the curtains or pillows. Here is a description of “Designer Blocks” with some handy ideas for your next design inspiration.

Now you have TMI Block - This is when you have spent hours searching and looking for inspiration online
Now you need to step away from the computer, take a walk and let everything around you sink in, see a fabulous color hanging on fabric in the storefront, take a pic of it, yeah you know you didn’t leave with out your phone. Try to exercise to clear you mind and not think about it for a while then revisit your thoughts later. Go to the bookstore and browse the magazines. This is just a small sampling of some ideas but I hope it was worth reading. If you have a good design inspiration idea please comment and let me know, there are all different ways to find inspiration.
