Great results are based on great inspiration. Banking design is no exception, especially as finance might be the industry most affected by the curse of routine, and this shows in lack of emotions and user-centricity.

These are the valuable grains of thought to be posted on the walls, saved in bookmarks or displayed on the computer wallpaper as a persistent reminder of what's truly important.
