Who is my dream client?
Any client who is well organized, has a clear list of deliverables at project onset, gives concise feedback, and sticks to their creative brief for the full duration of the project. That’s it. That’s the dream.

So now we have to spend the rest of our lives getting BACK the right to an abortion??? Jesus Christ for love of god what is wrong with this country, oh yeah we made a moron president and now it’s going to affect us forever
Dear @wordofTala, this is an unacceptable amount of packaging for a brand that claims to be sustainable. Please find a better solution.

The Mound is a masterpiece. To condense gratuitous appropriation of nature, the financialisation of leisure, the impotence of architectural form, ruthless value engineering and the hubris of politics into one £6m package is quite an achievement.
Veering towards the "typographic equivalent of tracksuit bottoms" hahahaha Sure, why not? But having less generic, geometric sans serifs across brands is definitely a plus. economist.com/1843/2021/05/0…

I know it was 4 years, but it felt like 100. So glad this mad man is no longer running America. nyti.ms/3bSqvUL via @nytvideo
Had the absolute pleasure of working with @NevilleBrody, the Brody team, and the Shiseido creative department on this mega project. Deep diving into Japanese aesthetics was never so intense and satisfying. wallpaper.com/beauty-groomin… via @wallpapermag

Half of this country is in a collective depression / anxiety attack about unchecked murders of black people, the death of democracy, a global pandemic that has killed roughly 1m people...and the other half is really ticked off about property damage.
I would rather have a new standard of morals than a new font. I really respect @DaltonMaag and their team's work, but I strongly believe that the design community shouldn't help make sheep's clothing for wolves. nytimes.com/2020/08/21/busin…

Our nation was founded on a simple idea: We're all created equal. We've never lived up to it — but we've never stopped trying. This Independence Day, let's not just celebrate those words, let's commit to finally fulfill them. Happy #FourthOfJuly!
