Session
Designing the spaces in-between.
"If you can design one thing, you can design everything" -- Massimo Vignelli.
"When you design a kitchen, you should also design the patterns on the tea towels and the graphics on the coffee mugs." -- My dad.
"Your eyes are always bigger than your stomach!" -- My wife.
"You're always working." -- Also, my wife.
Design is a long game that requires patience, hard graft, and a hunger to chase the projects you want to make and create opportunities when there are none, even if it sometimes means to work for free. Its about finding the sweet spot between clients and industries -- the space in-between where everything connects.
Its about the journey from growing up with my dad's designs to sitting next to Hugh Jackman at a movie premiere. EPIC.
