Inspire with InspireMe

    Hello, dear visitors of Habr :)

    Today, the inspiring project InspireMe is exactly one month old . In honor of this small but significant date, we want to talk about how InspireMe was created, why it was created and how it can be useful to you.

    The right, working mood for the designer is a great thing. Someone is inspired by their favorite music, someone likes to leaf through design blogs and portfolios, some prefer to read interesting interviews or articles. There are even people whom the mother-in-law’s photo or the life-size Bismarck model of the battleship, which stands on the table, delights in creative delight.
    But, unfortunately, most inspirational things act only once or twice, after which they no longer excite the creative soul and have to spend time finding something new and interesting.

    Once, after the new year, Yaroslav Birzul ( DezmASter ) became interested in the topic of inspiration, began to explore how interesting and unusual pictures and articles affect his working mood. He began to share part of such materials with his readers on Twitter. Soon, Yaroslav met Farid Rafikov ( formazon ). Farid was fond of the same ideas, but took a slightly different path. He compiled collections from inspirational caries, which he shared with friends (several times he even laid them outon Habr , you, probably, remember them). The guys decided to join forces, and the InspireMe project was born. Soon, copywriter Sergey Korol ( Devilofdesign ) joined them . Three of these guys are currently the authors and editors of the InspireMe project.

    Well, now about what is InspireMe. This project is for designers, photographers, artists, journalists, all those who are stuck halfway in the process, those who need an urgent emotional recharge and a portion of inspiration. At its core, InspireMe is a blog that creates the right, creative mood.

    Every day we pick up shovels, nets and fishing rods, sit on the shore of the Internet and begin to catch inspiring interesting things from it. We sort everything we catch, if necessary, we translate it into the great and mighty, and immediately, fresh, we put our readers to the table. We publish
    great illustrations and sketches, compile collections of logos, find out the secrets of inspiration from the best designers, look for and find cool photos and videos.

    We tried to integrate InspireMe into all the web services we could reach. You can read us on RSS , follow our announcements on Twitter, we publish our collections in LiveJournal communities and even started a VKontakte group. In a word, readers can be inspired as they please.

    InspireMe is as open as possible for communication, we are glad when readers offer us a topic for future publication, comment on our posts or simply write their feedback and suggestions.
    We try to constantly develop our project.


    Come , we will help you find inspiration!

    PS: a wild load went to the site (hello, habraeffect :)), so we temporarily turned on caching. Sorry for this inconvenience.
