I've made a google doc collection of 150 useful design and art resources! Whether youre just starting commissions or want to make your workflow more streamlined, I recommend checking it out

The full list is below the read more, but I suggest looking at the google doc as well sincce it will be updated more often. 

This list was created by @MagicalMeily

I encourage you to share this list with other designers, artists, or even students via this tumblr post, the google doc, or my tweet. Links marked as ‘Free/Paid’ usually means the free version has a lot of features anyway and the paid just has some extra templates or storage space. *Disclaimer - I haven’t used all of these services myself, so please let me know if anything dodgy slipped through the cracks, or if you have any others I should add.

I do not support NFTs or AI Art generators, so hopefully you won’t find any listed. Always double check commercial usage rights

International Congress Centrum - ICC Berlin, 1979, photography Project

The ICC Berlin gained worldwide recognition for its quality, technical features, and unique appearance, blending the technological enthusiasm of its time with functional brilliance. As a child of that era, the design reflects the future optimism and mechanical aesthetics of the 1960s and 1970s, while shedding light on the historical developments between East and West in Berlin. For this project, I've explored photographically the contrast and necessity of the inner and outer design of this outstanding congress center.

Where to get Bespoke Illustration and Exhibition Design services?

When it comes to finding bespoke illustration services, there are several avenues you can explore. Below are some popular options where you can find talented illustrators who offer customized illustrations tailored to your specific needs.

Online Freelance Platforms:

Freelance platforms like Upwork, Fiverr, and Freelancer are excellent places to find bespoke illustrators. These platforms allow you to browse through portfolios, reviews, and ratings of illustrators, making it easier to find a suitable match for your project. You can post your job requirements, receive proposals from illustrators, and choose the one that best aligns with your vision.

Illustration Communities and Directories:

Online communities and directories dedicated to illustration are valuable resources for finding bespoke illustrators. Websites like Behance, Dribbble, and DeviantArt feature portfolios of numerous talented artists. You can explore their work, contact them directly, or post a job listing on these platforms to attract illustrators who specialize in bespoke services.

Social Media Platforms:

Social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn can serve as effective channels for discovering talented illustrators. Many illustrators actively showcase their work on these platforms and may provide contact information or links to their websites. By searching relevant hashtags, exploring artist profiles, or joining industry-specific groups, you can connect with illustrators who offer bespoke services.

Design Agencies and Studios:

Design agencies and studios often employ illustrators who can provide bespoke services. These companies have a team of professionals with diverse skill sets, and they can match you with an illustrator who specializes in creating customized illustrations. You can search for local or international agencies/studios and browse their portfolios to assess if their style aligns with your requirements.

Art Schools and Institutions:

Art schools and institutions can be excellent sources for finding talented illustrators who may be interested in taking on bespoke projects. Graduating students or alumni often seek freelance opportunities to build their portfolios and gain experience. Contact local art schools, attend graduate showcases, or explore online platforms specific to art and design education to connect with aspiring illustrators.

Referrals and Recommendations:

Word-of-mouth recommendations from friends, colleagues, or other professionals in your industry can lead you to talented illustrators who offer bespoke services. Reach out to your network and inquire if they have worked with or know of any skilled illustrators who can cater to your specific needs. Personal recommendations can often provide insights into an illustrator's working style, reliability, and quality of work.

When hiring an illustrator for bespoke services, it's crucial to review their portfolio, discuss project requirements and timelines, negotiate pricing and licensing agreements, and ensure clear communication throughout the process. Don't hesitate to ask for references or testimonials to gauge the illustrator's reputation and professionalism. Ultimately, finding the right illustrator depends on your project's specific requirements, budget, and aesthetic preferences.

What are Exhibitions and Presentations?

Exhibitions and presentations refer to events or displays where individuals or organizations showcase their products, services, ideas, or projects to a target audience. These events are designed to inform, engage, and promote a specific subject matter or theme.

Exhibitions typically involve the physical display of items, such as products, artwork, scientific innovations, or cultural artifacts. They can take various forms, including trade shows, art exhibitions, science fairs, industry expos, or museum displays. Exhibitors set up booths, stands, or designated areas to showcase their offerings and interact with visitors. These events often provide opportunities for networking, business promotion, market research, and knowledge sharing among industry professionals, enthusiasts, and the general public.

Presentations, on the other hand, focus more on conveying information, ideas, or findings through verbal communication and visual aids. Presentations can be delivered in various formats, such as lectures, seminars, workshops, conferences, or webinars. They are commonly used in academic, professional, or corporate settings to share research, educate an audience, pitch a project or proposal, or provide updates on a specific topic. Presentations often include slides, multimedia content, demonstrations, or interactive elements to enhance audience engagement and understanding.

Both exhibitions and presentations play important roles in disseminating information, showcasing innovations, fostering collaboration, and promoting products or ideas to a targeted audience. They are valuable tools for communication, marketing, education, and community engagement.

Where to get Exhibition Design service?

There are several options available for obtaining exhibition design services. Here are a few places where you can find such services:

Design Agencies: Many design agencies specialize in exhibition design and offer comprehensive services to create engaging and visually appealing exhibits. These agencies often have experienced designers who can assist you in creating a customized exhibition design tailored to your specific needs.

Freelance Designers: Freelance designers who specialize in exhibition design can also be a great option. Platforms like Upwork, Freelancer, or Behance allow you to browse through portfolios and connect with talented exhibition designers who can work on your project.

Event Management Companies: Event management companies often offer exhibition design services as part of their overall event planning and execution. They have expertise in creating captivating exhibits that align with your event goals.

Trade Show Organizers: If you are participating in a trade show or exhibition, the organizers often provide exhibition design services or can recommend trusted vendors who specialize in exhibition design.

Referrals and Recommendations: Ask for recommendations from colleagues, industry professionals, or other companies that have previously organized exhibitions. Referrals can help you find reliable exhibition design service providers who have a proven track record.

Remember to evaluate potential service providers based on their portfolio, expertise, experience, and client reviews. It's also important to clearly communicate your requirements and budget to ensure a successful collaboration.

In conclusion, bespoke illustration is a highly valued and unique form of artistic expression. It involves creating customized and personalized illustrations to meet the specific needs and preferences of clients. Bespoke illustrations offer a range of benefits, including exclusivity, originality, and the ability to capture the essence of a particular subject or concept.

One of the key advantages of bespoke illustration is its ability to convey a distinct message or story. By working closely with clients, illustrators can understand their vision and translate it into a visual form. This collaborative process ensures that the final illustration not only meets the client's expectations but also captures the essence of the subject matter in a way that is meaningful and engaging.

Another significant advantage of bespoke illustration is its exclusivity. Unlike stock images or generic illustrations, bespoke illustrations are created specifically for an individual or organization. This exclusivity adds value and uniqueness to the artwork, making it stand out and resonate with the intended audience. Whether it's for branding purposes, marketing campaigns, or personal projects, bespoke illustrations can help create a strong and memorable visual identity.

Bespoke illustration also offers a high level of artistic quality and craftsmanship. Skilled illustrators bring their expertise, creativity, and attention to detail to each project, ensuring that the final artwork is visually stunning and aesthetically pleasing. This level of craftsmanship sets bespoke illustrations apart from mass-produced or digitally generated images, adding a touch of authenticity and artistry.

Furthermore, bespoke illustration allows for customization and flexibility. Clients have the opportunity to provide input and collaborate with the illustrator throughout the creative process, ensuring that the final result aligns with their vision. This flexibility extends to various styles, techniques, and mediums, allowing for a wide range of artistic possibilities. From traditional hand-drawn illustrations to digital artwork, bespoke illustration can be tailored to suit different preferences and project requirements.

In summary, bespoke illustration is a highly personalized and creative form of artistic expression that offers numerous benefits. Its ability to convey a distinct message, exclusivity, artistic quality, and customization make it a valuable tool for individuals and organizations seeking to create unique and engaging visual content. Whether it's for branding, marketing, or personal projects, bespoke illustrations have the power to captivate and leave a lasting impression on viewers.

In the architectural universe, it's a distinct truth: a picture conveys a thousand words. Visual display is at the heart of the field, and for architects, their portfolio is their visual language. An architect's portfolio can be a make-or-break feature, signifying the difference between securing a dream project and losing it. But with the world engulfing in the digital sphere, an upgrade is a necessity. Welcome to the compelling world of digital media—a universe that skillfully combines artistry and technique, aesthetics and analytics. As an architectural professional, you may question, 'Why should I venture into this realm?' The answer is simple: understanding the art of architects and presenting it through digital media is the future. Art or architectural marvels are not meant to be hidden. They're intended to inspire, invoke, and amaze us, a feat facilitated by digital media. The resounding impact of your work can be amplified online, reaching further to touch more lives than you could ever imagine. That said, it's integral to understand how to captivate your audience with your architectural story through digital media. Firstly, present your portfolio online. Whether through a personalized website or a professional sharing platform such as LinkedIn or Behance, digital portfolios provide an endless sea of opportunities for architects. Your architectural sketches, design concepts, finalized structures, and even behind-the-scenes glimpses can be showcased here with utmost ease. Such exposure has the capacity to connect you with your potential clients, employers, and even your peers. Include captivating, high-quality images that truly depict your unique architectural style, and pair them with compelling narratives—one that tells your design story. Use keywords like 'architecture,' 'design concept,' 'innovative architecture,' 'architectural styles,' etc., to optimize your content. SEO or Search Engine Optimization is the digital magic that propels your work to the forefront, grabbing attention from the right audience. It's not only about showcasing your work but making it discoverable to those searching for it. Social media is another tool that opens up a world of visibility for architects. Create pages on platforms like Instagram or Pinterest to display photographs of your work, time-lapse videos of your processes, or 3D walkthroughs of your designs. Regular updates, sharing of valuable insights, interacting with fellow creatives, and active participation in architectural dialogues can build awareness and portray you as an informed, engaged professional. Additionally, adopting virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) technology allows your potential clients and audience to experience your work beyond the 2D screen. This blend of real-world and computer-generated input can present an interactive and immersive platform for showcasing architecture. Remember, content matters as much as the visuals. Create interesting, readable, and keyword-rich content describing each project, your design process, inspirations, challenges, and the solutions you devised. This not only helps in SEO ranking but also adds a personal touch, ensuring a bond of relatability with your audience. Mastering the art of showcasing your architectural portfolio through digital media is no overnight task. Yet, it's a transformation worth achieving, turning architecture professionals into storytelling wizards, where each structure has an enthralling tale of its own to share. Embrace digitalization; let the world witness your architectural miracles. Your design story awaits its audience. Remember, in the digital sphere, your creativity is but a click away. Case Study: Renowned Architect John Cena Transforms His Practices Through Digital Media John Cena, an acclaimed architect by profession, was known to have a treasure trove of excellently designed buildings and projects. Unfortunately, traditional methods of showcasing his art were limiting his potential client reach and lessening his impact on the architectural world.

After identifying these hurdles, John decided to pivot towards digital media, and the amplification of his portfolio has been a game-changing experience. Step 1: Digitize Your Portfolio John first digitized his entire portfolio, including sketches, blueprints, photos of finished projects, and even mini-replicas photographed professionally. He ensured high-resolution scans and images were used to maintain image quality when viewed online. He adopted advanced software, such as AutoCAD, SketchUp, 3D Max, and Adobe Suite, to showcase his architectural designs attractively and realistically. Step 2: Create A Website John then hired a web developer who constructed a custom website for him, keeping it simple, sleek, yet informative. He made sure to include an 'About Me' page, an 'Architectural Services' page, and most importantly, a 'Portfolio' page. He used clear navigation points, large, high-quality images, and brief but helpful descriptions of each project, including their inspiration, challenges, and outcomes. Step 3: Leverage SEO To drive organic traffic, John consulted an SEO expert to optimize his website. He began incorporating keywords like 'modern architecture designs,' 'residential building architect,' and similar phrases pertinent to his profession. Additionally, he incorporated a blog featuring valuable content about the architectural field, his creative process, and industry trends, thus boosting his SEO rankings and attracting engaged audiences. Step 4: Utilize Social Media Understanding the importance of social media, John established a presence on platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn, showcasing his work and engaging with his audience. Instagram, with its high emphasis on visuals, was a perfect fit. He used hashtags known in the design community to increase visibility and consistently shared high-quality images and reels of his projects. Step 5: Engage in Webinars and Podcasts John recognized that presenting himself as a thought leader would amplify his reach and credibility. He conducted webinars and appeared on podcasts catering to his niche. Discussing topics that appeal to fellow architects, interior designers, and potential clients enabled him to share his work, concepts, and perspectives on a grander scale. Step 6: Measure and Improve He maintained an active partnership with the SEO consultant to monitor website analytics, measure results, and identify areas of improvement. Adjustments were made in terms of content, keyword usage, meta tags, and various other SEO facets to attain sustained and improved growth rates. Overall, by migrating to digital media, John Cena amplified his portfolio visibility, connected with a global audience, expanded his client base, and established himself as a thought leader in architecture. Hence, his case stands testament to architects out there, affirming the impact of digital presence when showcasing their portfolios. The art of architects shines brighter when cast under the light of digital media. Remember to digitize not only your portfolio but your mindset as well. "Ready to take your architectural portfolio to the next level? Don't wait another second. Click here to learn how you can shine in the digital world!" Start Your Digital Transformation Now! "According to a report by Statista, over 4.66 billion people worldwide are active internet users as of October 2020, which equates to nearly 60% of the world's total population. As an architect, leveraging digital marketing strategies can significantly broaden your reach and visibility, making it easier to showcase your work to potential clients on a global scale."

Vue.Js Vs React.Js: Choosing The Right Frontend Framework For Your Project - Sohojware

Choosing the right front-end framework for your project is a critical decision that can significantly impact development efficiency and the overall performance of your application. Both Vue.js and React.js are popular options that offer distinct advantages and cater to different project needs. This comprehensive comparison, brought to you by Sohojware, a leading web development company, will help you navigate the key features of both frameworks and guide you toward selecting the ideal one for your project.

React: A powerful and versatile framework

Developed by Facebook in 2013, React is an open-source JavaScript library that empowers developers to create reusable UI components. This reusability fosters faster development cycles and promotes code maintainability. React's ecosystem, with a vast collection of users, tools, and resources, makes it a compelling choice for enterprise-grade applications. With its tenth birthday approaching, React is considered a mature technology, having undergone extensive refinement and testing within the industry.

Advantages of Using React

Superior Performance: A core strength of React is its emphasis on performance. React applications leverage a virtual DOM, a lightweight representation of the actual DOM, which enables efficient updates. Whenever component changes occur, React selectively updates only the affected parts of the real DOM, resulting in faster rendering and a more responsive user experience.

Reusable Components: React's component-based architecture promotes code reusability. Developers can construct reusable UI components, accelerating development and ensuring consistency across the application. This modular approach also simplifies code maintenance and debugging.

Clean and Maintainable Code: The component-based structure of React naturally leads to well-organized and clean code. This improves code readability and maintainability and facilitates collaboration within development teams.

Potential Drawbacks of React

Frequent Updates: React undergoes frequent updates to introduce new features and enhance performance. While these updates benefit developers by incorporating the latest web standards, they can also necessitate adjustments to existing codebases to stay compatible. This can require developers to invest time in keeping their skill sets current.

Additional Tools Required: As React primarily focuses on the front end, you might need to integrate additional tools and libraries to create a complete development environment. While this can be viewed as an advantage in terms of flexibility, it can also add complexity to the project setup.

Vue.js: A Versatile and Lightweight Framework

Introduced in 2014 by Evan You, a former Google engineer, Vue.js is a progressive JavaScript framework designed for building user interfaces and single-page applications (SPAs). Vue.js is known for its versatility and focus on progressive adoption. Developers can seamlessly integrate Vue.js into existing projects without disrupting core functionalities. Due to its lightweight nature and exceptional performance, Vue.js is an excellent choice for developing minimum viable products (MVPs). Here are some of the leading companies that have successfully leveraged Vue.js: Alibaba, Grammarly, GitLab, Behance, and Adobe Portfolio.

Strengths of Vue.js

Readability and Single-File Components: Vue.js employs a component-based architecture, similar to React, that promotes code readability and maintainability. Vue.js components can be reused to construct custom UIs, accelerating development and fostering consistency. This modular approach also facilitates unit testing, allowing developers to test individual components in isolation.

Comprehensive Tooling Ecosystem: Since its inception, Vue.js has cultivated a powerful ecosystem of complementary tools. The Vue CLI (Command Line Interface) serves as a valuable asset, offering a rich set of frontend plugins and streamlining project creation and management through a graphical user interface. Vue.js also integrates seamlessly with popular tools like TypeScript, Babel, unit testing frameworks, server-side rendering solutions, and browser debugging tools.

Exceptional Performance: Vue.js is a lightweight framework, and combined with its utilization of a virtual DOM for rendering, it empowers developers to construct high-performance SPAs with responsive interfaces. Vue.js applications often boast faster initial load times compared to React and Angular applications.

Compact Size: Vue.js is a remarkably lightweight framework, weighing approximately 18kb in zipped format. This translates to effortless download and installation processes, while also contributing to the overall performance of applications built with Vue.js.

Considerations When Using Vue.js

Flexibility Can Lead to Complexity: Vue.js is renowned for its flexibility, offering developers a high degree of creative freedom when constructing user interfaces. While this empowers developers to craft unique UIs and implement innovative features, it can introduce complexity, particularly in large-scale projects.

Vue.js shines with its exceptional performance, ease of use, and focus on progressive adoption.

FAQs

React vs. Vue.js: Which framework is faster?

Both React and Vue.js are known for their performance optimizations. React utilizes a virtual DOM for efficient updates, while Vue.js is a lightweight framework with a fast initial load time. In general, Vue.js applications might have a slight edge in initial load speed, while React can excel in optimizing updates for complex UIs.

I'm new to JavaScript. Should I learn React or Vue.js?

Vue.js is often praised for its gentle learning curve due to its clear syntax and well-structured documentation. This makes it a great starting point for beginners in JavaScript and web development. React, while powerful, might require a steeper learning curve due to its JSX syntax and concepts like state management.

Does Sohojware specialize in React or Vue.js development?

Sohojware, a leading web development company in the US, boasts a team of experienced developers well-versed in both React.js and Vue.js. We understand the strengths and weaknesses of each framework and can help you choose the most suitable option for your project needs.

My project requires a large ecosystem of tools and libraries. Is React or Vue.js a better fit?

React enjoys a vast ecosystem of third-party libraries and tools due to its wider adoption. This offers developers a broader range of options for various functionalities. However, Vue.js is catching up quickly, and its core framework provides a solid foundation for building complex applications.

I need to build a minimum viable product (MVP) quickly. Which framework should I use?

Due to its lightweight nature and ease of use, Vue.js is an excellent choice for developing MVPs. It allows for rapid prototyping and iteration cycles, enabling you to get your core functionalities up and running swiftly.

Exploring the Best Platforms to Find Exceptional Graphic Designers

Introduction:

In today's digital age, finding skilled graphic designers is essential for businesses and individuals alike. Whether you're a startup looking to establish your brand identity or an established corporation in need of fresh design perspectives, the quest for talented graphic designers is paramount. However, with the plethora of options available, determining the best platform to find good graphic designers can be daunting. This article aims to explore various avenues and assess their suitability in connecting with top-notch graphic design talent.

1. Freelance Platforms:

Freelance platforms like Upwork, Freelancer, and Fiverr have gained significant popularity in recent years. These platforms offer access to a diverse pool of freelance graphic designers with varying skill levels and expertise. Clients can post projects, review portfolios, and choose designers based on their qualifications and past work. While freelance platforms provide flexibility and cost-effectiveness, finding the right designer amidst the sea of applicants can be time-consuming. Moreover, quality assurance may be a concern, as the lack of stringent screening processes can result in inconsistent outcomes.

2. Design Communities and Forums:

Online design communities and forums such as Dribbble, Behance, and Reddit's r/DesignJobs serve as hubs for creative professionals to showcase their portfolios and connect with potential clients. These platforms offer a wealth of talent, allowing clients to browse through a diverse range of styles and aesthetics. Engaging with the community also provides opportunities for networking and collaboration. However, the abundance of talent can be overwhelming, making it challenging to narrow down the search. Additionally, while these platforms showcase designers' work, they may not always facilitate direct hiring processes, requiring additional communication and negotiation.

3. Specialized Design Agencies:

Specialized design agencies focus solely on providing graphic design services to clients across various industries. Unlike freelance platforms where designers work independently, agencies employ teams of designers with diverse skill sets and expertise. Working with a design agency offers several advantages, including access to a curated pool of talent, streamlined project management processes, and professional oversight. Agencies often have established workflows and quality control measures in place, ensuring consistent and high-quality deliverables. However, the premium nature of agency services may come with higher costs compared to freelance platforms.

4. Social Media Platforms:

Social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram serve as valuable tools for discovering and engaging with graphic designers. Designers frequently share their work on these platforms, allowing clients to gain insights into their creative process and style. Direct messaging and networking features enable clients to reach out to designers directly, facilitating personalized communication and collaboration. However, the informal nature of social media platforms may lack the professionalism and project management capabilities offered by other avenues. Moreover, sifting through the vast volume of content can be time-consuming, requiring careful curation to find suitable candidates.

5. Design Schools and Alumni Networks:

Design schools and alumni networks provide access to emerging talent and recent graduates eager to establish themselves in the industry. Collaborating with design students offers a unique opportunity to tap into fresh perspectives and innovative ideas. Many design schools have career services departments that facilitate connections between students and potential employers. While working with students may entail some degree of risk due to their limited experience, it can also be rewarding in terms of cost-effectiveness and fostering long-term relationships.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the search for good graphic designers encompasses a myriad of options, each with its own set of advantages and considerations. Freelance platforms offer flexibility and scalability but may lack consistency and quality control. Design communities and forums provide access to diverse talent pools but require careful vetting and communication. Specialized design agencies offer professionalism and expertise but at a premium cost. Social media platforms facilitate direct engagement but may lack formal project management capabilities. Finally, design schools and alumni networks present opportunities to nurture emerging talent but require careful mentorship and supervision. Ultimately, the best platform to find good graphic designers depends on the specific needs and preferences of the client, balancing factors such as budget, quality, and project requirements. By exploring and evaluating these avenues, clients can make informed decisions and forge successful partnerships with talented graphic designers.
