Here we go again!

Ubuntu Design

Every 6 months the Ubuntu journey starts anew. Those of us entering yet another cycle assume that this all makes sense to the outside world but I like to post up dates on the wall in the office and write a blog post to give those new to the project, and some not so new, ...

Ayatana overlay scrollbars: something truly Natty

Ubuntu Design

Natty will feature a world first – overlay scrollbars in desktop applications. The goal is to put content first and banish chrome, while still paying attention to the needs of the desktop environment – mouse pointers. These were designed and developed by Canonical as part of the Ayatana initiative, improving both focus and awareness for u ...

Ubuntu Design

Below, Amelie Bonet from the Dalton Maag design team shares her thoughts: Latin Extended B is a block (0180-024F) within the Unicode standard. With its utterly mundane name no-one would guess the wealth of shapes and glyphs.

29 days later

Ubuntu Article

In the past few weeks I have worked on lots of projects and there is a lot more in the pipeline.

Something New and Beautiful: Ubuntu, distilled, in type

Ubuntu Design

I hope it’s a benchmark for more libre font work, and a catalyst for improvements in the tools of typograp ...
