a sign

bernard willhelm is telling me what i already know i need: to go home. Paradoxically, the fact that I have pushed myself this far in my studies at Central Saint Martins has led me to the discovery of new (at least to my virgin eyes) designers that inspire me. In my latest investigations I've been trying inject fun and spirit into my designs. I only have a few more weeks in design school, two more projects to work on, and a few class sessions to learn from my peers.  There is no time to waste being austere or overthinking. I think Willhelm--a graduate of the ever elusive ever impressive Royal Academy in Antwerp-- often uses fun and playfulness as a means of questioning design, and even society, more seriously. And I think both are important!
