Highlights

 

Brand designers like to think if we do our job right, it never needs to be done again

Although we do like our process and step-by-step approach, we just jump in the fire with them

Nobody's gonna die if this presentation doesn't go well or if this brand is the wrong colour

 

When you're dealing with the far future differentiation is not difficult because there's nobody else out here

When you don't have a ton of time you gotta shoot a lot of arrows to figure out where the target is

 

Visionary tech leaders don't care about your design process
