"Where do you find good icons?", "What's your LP/ad inspo?", "How do you pick brand fonts?" I get DMs like this DAILY. After years of sharing one-off links, I've actually started sending everyone to Toools.design. It's a super-curated collection of hundreds (thousands?) of design resources. Everything from UI kits to typography, inspiration, stock photos, icons, etc. Here’s why I like it →  • Clean interface that doesn't overwhelm • Quality-filtered resources (no junk) • Organized by exactly what you need • Regularly updated with fresh tools Been using this at Obvi for months. It's replaced like 50 bookmarks in my browser. For non-designers: It removes the guesswork. You'll find professional-grade resources without getting lost in the weeds. For designers: It's like having a master list of vetted tools. Plus they surface new ones I haven't seen before. Not affiliated - just sharing because it's become my go-to recommendation for anyone who asks about design resources 🙌 

When I started out, one of the biggest struggles - Finding good resources for my designs. 🚫 Not the random Pinterest kind. ✅ The kind that actually helps you move forward in the design process. I spent days (sometimes weeks) looking for the perfect drawing reference or a reliable map source. Then came the harder part - organising all of it. It felt like each new project demanded a fresh hunt from scratch. And if you’re a student or young designer, you know exactly what I mean. That’s why I created something I wish I had back then - 📚 A free architecture “Resource Library” with everything in one place. It includes- ➡️ Visual reference boards for diagrams, plans, and sections ➡️ Tools and platforms to elevate your design presentations ➡️ Site analysis tools and online map sources more! These are the same links I use in my own projects. They’ll save you time, reduce overwhelm, and bring clarity to your process. You’ll find the link in the comments - go ahead and bookmark it. P.S. What’s one underrated resource you swear by? I’d love to add it in. 👇 ___ 👋 Hey, I’m Vishakha Tiwari, an urban designer, a visual communication designer and the founder of Architecture Candy.
