/// IT'S NICE THAT

/// Got a mention on the lovely website called /// It's Nice That /// Thanks Will!...

It's Nice That is a daily blog launched in April 2007 by designers Will Hudson and Jez Burrows to locate, collect and share Nice things.

It seemed to them that, without anyone noticing, 'nice' had become this limp opinion neither complimentary or constructive. A weak and ambiguous non-word that ended up sounding snide or inadequate even when it was offered genuinely. Stepping forward, they decided to take back Nice and turn it into a steely workhorse of a word, significant and sincere, with a renewed purpose.
