Designer Breakfasts

This morning I had the pleasure of meeting and listening to Franco Bonadio at the ‘Designer Breakfasts’ seminar held at BBH, Kingly Street. Franco, CEO and creative director of Identica, gave his refreshing and honest account of running a design consultancy. I liked his ‘fast/slow’ topic referring to a technique he learned at life drawing classes – spend too long over something and invariably the result is overworked and distorted. Give yourself limited time and anything can happen, sometimes disastrous, but often spontaneous, interesting and worth talking about.

All in all, a good way to spend a morning. I highly recommend it.
