Being included in PRINT made me reflect on what I actually try to pass on to students: that design is thinking, not just output. How do you make design a conversation, not a product?

Had a thoughtful conversation on Define Design about typography — not as style, but as thinking.
Letterforms carry history, power, and bias long before they carry “brand.”
Always glad to slow down and talk about that.

PRINT Magazine was part of how I learned to think about design long before I had students of my own.
Being included now — curated by Debbie Millman — feels less like a milestone and more like stepping into a conversation I’ve been listening to for years.

Today was one of those truly global days — University of Reading commitments on one side of the clock, and a 3am recording window on the other.
Decided to reschedule my conversation with Giorgia Lupi so we can do it with the focus it deserves.
Some conversations are worth waiting for.

Still kind of wild to be included in PRINT Magazine’s What Matters series, curated by Debbie Millman — someone who’s not only shaped the design canon, but has also been a guest on UniqueWays.
Feels like one of those quiet career moments that only really makes sense in hindsight.
