What do Designers do?

A bigger, better future.

Creating a bigger better future is at the very heart of design and this fuels the inner passion of designers to innovate new solutions for their clients. 

Like the fire keepers in the age of prehistoric man, designers will continue to be the visualizers of the future. We are the agents of change bringing order from chaos, understanding from ignorance, simplicity from complexity. That’s not changing. Nor is the required success mindset so necessary for the creative imagination to innovate a brighter future.

For the most part, designers are an optimistic lot. Designers have a special gift at seeing better things for people way ahead of the status quo. Designers are possibility thinkers asking the “what-if” questions that drive innovation in our human development as well as the global marketplace. That won’t be changing either.

Regardless of the economy and global circumstances we find ourselves in, there is always going to be a demand to design a vision for a bigger, better future. Designers will be at the epicenter of this activity — leading the way forward.

César’s Bark Canoe

In celebration of National Canoe Day we’re revisiting this wonderful film that documents César Newashish making a traditional birch bark canoe. A quietly fascinating, and oddly meditative display of skill and tradition. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Just finished a super complex and intricate wedding invite print job as a bit of a personal weekend project with the lovely folks at Someone design studio. The job was a wedding gift for a really good friend of mine. Someone were ridiculously helpful and always had great ideas to help the project along. I would definitely recommend them for any Toronto designers looking to do beautiful letterpress work locally.

More info here on the wedding site for anyone interested: www.bimalandnatasha.com
