Lately I’ve been pondering many questions regarding my place as a designer. I feel I may have lost sight of certain goals which have lead me to question my purpose. Design will always be my first love, however, I need to be true to that which I love.
I spent time last night rereading The First Things First Manifesto. I recommend FTF to all designers, for it will stir up the same questions floating around in my head.
I’m leaving for Manhattan tomorrow for a week. I need a break and I need to clear my head. We’re planning to visit Karlson Wilker, R/GA, Pentagram, Milton Glaser, Mirko Ilic, and as many galleries as we have time for.
Hopefully this experience will bring answers to my pondering, however, it might just bring more questions.
