51 rules: A couple of freshly baked design rules every month, during 2011.

In December, when I was in Stockholm, I bought a book called "Never Use White Type on a Black Background" by Anneloes van Gaalen (ed.). It is a compilation of quotes from famous creatives on the topics of design and fashion, grouped by fifty one "ridiculous" rules.

Van Gaalen's book has inspired me to re-perceive the rules published in the book with the help of HTML and CSS(3). So, I have decided to blog my perception of the 51 rules every month during 2011. (Not a couple, actually, but four or five rules every month. Why? Because 51 rules simply do not divide evenly by 12 months.) Anyway, hang tight, for they are coming very soon. By the way, you should follow me on Twitter or subscribe via RSS to receive the updates as soon as they are published.

Aside: Can you tell I am very excited? As in sharing what I can among other things in a year-long project. This kind of idea is much inspired by Kyle Steed's signature 52 profiles.
