Textures are one of the most used resources in making great designs. They can accentuate your images to better portray the feel of the design you’re aiming for. Vintage textures, for instance, can add a classic or nostalgic touch to your work.

Here at You the Designer, you need not blast to the past to get this brilliant effect. This Compilation of Vintage Textures for Designers features resources you can download for free. Make sure you read and follow the terms set by their owners, and enjoy this latest set of freebies with your other designer friends!

Steelcase, together with IDEO, has launched the Node Chair, an awesome seating solution that either solves or fulfills a number of needs found in a common school environment.

These issues, include flexible arrangements for lab or collaborative type learning, mobility, comfort (looks like lefties or right will sit well) and utility for storage of bags.

This product is a great example of what user centered innovation can do for you. Hang on, was it not dead?
