I came across Simon Griffee a long time ago, filed his site away somewhere in my catalogue, and just returned to it as I hunt through sites that I have admired looking for taxonomical inspiration.
Only this time I caught site of a link to imgtlk, a meta-art project that he stewards. There’s something special (to me) about Simon’s style of design, particularly web design, he walks a fine line between almost claustrophobic and a little inscrutable on the one side and precisely balanced, simple, and elegant on the other.
