Rejane Dal Bello
Design is capitalism but it can be more
In this episode of One More Question, Ross is joined by Rejane Dal Bello, award-winning designer and founder of Studio Rejane Dal Bello.
Ross and Rejane discuss:
Why designers and brands need to embrace honesty
How branding changes the way people see themselves and their companies
Why you should make decisions that are best for the brand, not the client
Rejane has a history of iconic work. She has 23 years of experience in graphic design and branding, including stints at renowned agencies such as Wolff Olins (UK) and Studio Dumbar (NL).
Highlights
[On rebranding] You don't change from one day to the other. But I do think that makes a wave of different thinking
It means something. They work their asses off for a purpose, and that logo signifies the purpose.
We tend to pretend that a brand needs to portray something more positive than it is, and I think, No – beauty is honesty
Design is about goods and about capitalism, there is no doubt about that
[On doing what’s best for a brand] People change, but the company stays. So it's not about your personal taste
Design [has] this opportunity to do that for a collective of people – which is a company – you can make that company feel, look, or behave a certain way
