I'm a sucker for small twists on common designs, especially when they actually make it to market.
Bookmarked alongside TapFancy, an (apparently abandoned) iPhone interface gallery.
Update: More from The Working Group.
Any object with purpose, crafted with dedication to its origin, I fall quickly and deeply in love with. Update: An interview.

I relate wholeheartedly to Bierut's statement that he became a designer to solve other peoples' problems rather than express his own ideas. It's nice to hear another design unabashedly admit that.

This reminds me very vividly of a trailer I saw years ago for a game that was never released. Can someone help me out? Update: It could have been Feist, with the first trailer appearing on YouTube in 2008. Jon Cowley also points to Patapon, though it's quite a bit more flourished than Limbo.

In support of my previous post, an old favorite from Geoff Mcfetridge.
