Designer Quotes

– Paula Scher

“Good design is not about what medium you’re working in. It’s about thinking hard about what you want to do and what you have to work with before you start.”

– Susan Kare

“Failure is built into creativity… the creative act involves this element of ‘newness’ and ‘experimentalism,’ then one must expect and accept the possibility of failure.”

– Saul Bass
