Inspiration. Ideation. Creation.
I love having designated spaces for three stages of the design process.
Fuelled by good tunes. 🕺

Fabulous evening presenting my thoughts on thoughts @hey.curio - thanks so much for having me.
I enjoyed the evening so much.
@kirstenmakes brilliant insight into the struggles ADHD brings to a creative practice.
@chrisleslie eye-opening photography documenting the untold stories of Glasgow and its people.
@kaye_symington effuses the joy of tactile print in a digital age from the glorious output of @newspaperclub
Loved Izzy @_somewhere_between_ ’s talk, she did well despite her colleague Günter trying to sabotage it.
@ohpandah , stepping up for pelvically challenged @conzothrob (who still made a brilliant contribution from his hospital bed), gave a surprisingly touching account of the glory that is @gratefulglasgow ’s launch and it’s milestone in his sobriety journey.
Hats off to @martinboath and the @_if_studio team for a magnificently curated event @thesocialhub.glasgow 👏👏👏
Thanks to @forummevents and @thechattyfreelancer for the additional pics.

I’ve loved the @logoarchive #logoarchive_now trend, it’s been heartening to see so many talented designers show their lovingly crafted marks.
Here’s my selection. Some recent, a few from the vaults. All across the industries from Renewable energy to Sports Clubs.
KEEP ON CRAFTING ✊📐

WN06: Process Over Portfolios with Chris Sanders @RightAlignedAcademy
What happens when your successful design agency collapses? For Chris Sanders, it was the start of something much bigger.
I'm delighted to talk to the founder of Right Aligned about the messy reality of a career in design. Chris shares his journey from a 1999 print room to building a global educational platform that prioritises 'the process' over the polished final result.
Thanks so much to Chris for taking the time and being so refreshingly honest about his failures.
