stefan sagmeister

thinking and reflecting on that thinking can be useful but acting on that thinking can be useful to others. there's something brave and kind about making insights available. especially if they have that elusive quality of truth about them! so let's stefan sagmeister.

sagmeister is one of the most forward thinking designers in the world. his work which is characterized in one interview i viewed as "putting truth before trend" is a direct extension of his thinking . . . the following link will take you to an interview in which sagmeister's views on design and politics and business are placed right out on the table.

the piece de resistance of this entry though is an extraordinary video of stefan sagmeister speaking at the ted conference . . . .
