Yeah, those are dream pools -- all with spectacular views to enjoy after taking a dip. The photos in this article were mostly taken with an iPhone. I've got to upgrade to a DSLR eventually.

As a swimmer those pools really speak to me. What a dream to do laps surrounded by such beautiful architecture, ahhh. Beautiful architectural photos as usual Stephen!

]]> Comment on Fresh & Easy Branding: East Bay Store Launch by Nate Mahoney http://www.duuplex.com/2011/03/16/fresh-easy-successful-branding-effective-visual-design/#comment-514 Nate Mahoney Fri, 24 Jun 2011 08:08:13 +0000 http://www.duuplex.com/?p=935#comment-514 I went to the new San Francisco Fresh & Easy store today to see how the experience was compared to my usual Trader Joe's. Overall, I liked the groceries and prices I found and felt like it is basically a slightly "cleaner" feeling and looking Trader Joe's. The only awkward part was the self checkout which takes a lot of time if you are buying more than just a few things. I was recently in Boston, MA and visited the Stop & Shop supermarkets there. They have technology that lets you shop with a barcode scanner and zap the barcodes as you go! http://www.stopandshop.com/our_stores/index.htm?linkid=MN The nice thing is that when you are done shopping all the scanning is done too. I wonder if Fresh & Easy is able to adopt this technology? I went to the new San Francisco Fresh & Easy store today to see how the experience was compared to my usual Trader Joe’s.

However, I hope it's not true, as I too find inspiration in well designed stores, books and periodicals. I think, the Stout bookstore serves its niche market well and provides an excellent customer experience. I like your analogy of bookstores to endangered animals.
