In their own words
I stepped away from conventional design sources and focused on cultural research that felt personal, relevant.
I believe it’s essential for a profession to know its roots, but also to understand that history is often incomplete.
Knowing the figures typically celebrated in design history isn’t about feeling obligated to be inspired by them.
Design history isn’t just about famous names or static visual references.
