YCD Paris I recently re-read Made You Look by Stefan Sagmeister, one of my favourite designers. He’s not one of my favourites because of his work (rather ugly, sometimes!), but I like him because of the thinking behind his designs and I just find that the stuff he writes in his books/interviews is quite hilarious and . . . → Read More: YCD Paris |
