Nice tramway map, June 2020

I updated my Nice tramway map with a better design of the Terminal 2 terminus, more legible bus and train icons, and some other minor details

My Telegram posts during 2020’s week 22

Leap years, Ros Atkins’s clock, a bad infographic, my hate of topiary, changing seats in planes, watching movies at home

Whiteboard erasers

Bad design: both sides are made of the same material. People sometimes rub with the side that’s supposed to be held

No toolbars on the Mac

Using keyboard shortcuts is much quicker than pointing and clicking. Therefore I eliminated toolbars wherever possible

Voice-controlled elevators

Elevators should support voice control. This way people will be able to select their floor without touching anything

Bread rolls

The bread roll is one of the greatest human inventions: it makes any simple ingredient that is boring by itself a proper food

Audioguides

Audioguides in museums are a sign that the story is not being told well enough visually

Messengers

All messengers are bad in some way or another
