Thus it has arrived The Echo from @herrstrom
Right now I feel a lack of clarity in what the design language is for, seeing the amount of copies happening only on X alone.
Thus over arching me questions at the moment in my head :
1. HOW to go about designing brands that brings culture together
2. Shifting from pushing pixels to asking deeper brand value questions
3. MAKE a new a case study that speaks and translate the visual framework that I use, to orchestrate a project that best speaks these idea clearly
4. understanding decisions that goes into chosing certain directions for a given brand.
Anyone else read the book yet 👀?

How to think about brand culture as design becomes democratized @herrstrom @studioherrstrom #FCImpactCouncil f-st.co/1GqDpOy
As creative tools become more accessible and execution faster, looking good is becoming much easier. What makes a brand matter?
In my piece for @FastCompany I brought David Fischer of Highsnobiety and Damien Correll of Figma into the conversation.

Something to ruminate on. I wrote this short article to explore why I believe the real threat to originality is not advancing technology, but our industry’s habit of mistaking on-trend references for ideas.

highly recommend this fantastic book by @herrstrom.
if every designer read this, the world would be a much better place (and with a lot less slop).
My third time speaking at Forward Festival in Frankfurt last week.
Very grateful to everyone who came to the talk and stayed afterwards to pick up a signed copy of my book. A personal highlight was hearing from many designers that the way we challenge the creative process.
