I love simple, clean design.
When I first renovated my room, I had only a table & a mattress with no frame.
I just couldn't find the right bed.
It took 2 years to find the perfect piece of furniture. My best friend Henry says my room looks like a jail cell.
He's right, sorta -- but I still like the simplicity of it all. :)
And my love for simple design extends to awesome Facebook cover photos -- where I use only the most minimal of design techniques.
Here's a recent example of a cover photo from one of my pages:
I went cover-photo CRAZY the past few days as I viewed images from hundreds of Facebook pages.
I hunted for the most simple & clean designs I could find -- something subtle that sent a very strong message.
Below are 12 of my favorites.
