Happy One Year Anniversary IBD! Weโve highlighted, interviewed, and collected stories for a handful of designers over the past year. So I am starting the anniversary year off with an interview: Atim Annette Oton, an inspirational woman, designer, coach, writer, and speaker.
We’ve teamed up with Inspiring Black Designers to spotlight even more brilliant creative talent in the design community. This week, IBD spoke with web designer and entrepreneur Krystle Rowry.
The last interview of 2013 is a really great one.
When you think of someone who has been out there fighting in the trenches for diversity in this industry, think of Andrew Bass. His work with AIGA was a huge inspiration behind showcasing designers here with Revision Path, and I’m honored to have had the chance to speak at length with him about his work and experiences in the design industry. I won’t spoil anything for you because there’s a lot of great information here from the perspective of a design veteran.
How fitting that today’s interview is on the fifth day of Kwanzaa, which represents purpose (nia). Without further ado, here’s Andrew!
There’s a lot of hot design talent in NYC, and Kendell Burton is a name you’ll definitely see in the future. Aside from his work with social media superstar Gary Vaynerchuk, Kendell is also busy with his own projects, not to mention his previous magazine work. Find out more about Kendell and his work in this week’s interview!
Random Objects is one of my favorite independent small businesses. Over the years, I’ve bought products from there, turned other people on to them…I’m even drinking from their Midnight Oil mug right now while I put this interview together. So imagine my surprise when I find out Random Objects is a one-man show, ran by design dynamo Anthony Simpson. I had to talk to him!
We talked about how he started Random Objects and where his inspiration comes from for new products and designs. This is a shorter interview than usual, but Anthony threw in a little surprise. Read on through to the end to find out what.
