FIrst off, this is not a knock on Core, I have been reading Core since 97-98 BEFORE we had a computer in the house when I had to go to the local iibrary to read up on core, BEFORE i was even thinking of going to design school.
I cant find any other place that scratches that itch the same way Core does. Designboom is good, but it feels incredibly klunky (with nav) and I’ve already seen a lot of what is presented. Mocoloco is well…I dunno, not ahead of the curve as I would like it to be. TreeHugger is too…feel good. What else is out there?
(keep in mind that love hackaday and engadget and a bunch of tastless humour blogs, streetboners, etc)
The only other option that I know of is productdesignforums. More overseas students over there but there’s still a lot of good information in the 2-d and 3-d sections, especially if you’re into digital sketching and solidworks.
Depending on what mood I’m in, Designboom, seeming & eurocentric, has some good interviews and interesting whatnots. I always wondered if their design-aerobics were any good, so if you try one let us know.
