Eight Designers We All Know and Love, Pt. 01

DESIGNERS WE KNOW AND LOVE

THE JUKEBOX⁣
Their headphones are so loud, you can’t hear your phone calls. The Jukebox always comes with an interesting choice in music.⁣

THE SO MUCH TIME, DONE⁣
Every request is returned with a long monologue about how long it is going to take. Five minutes later it is done. ⁣⁣

THE ARTIST⁣
For The Artist, the aesthetics trump everything, including usability, target audience, and client preference.⁣

THE ARGUER⁣
They love to battle design changes, but verbally only. Every request seems to come with a hearty debate on why it is a bad idea. ⁣

THE BIT TORRENT⁣
They are the office resource for any bootleg software, fonts, photos, and other assets. Ask and you shall receive.⁣

THE PROCRASTINATOR⁣
Putting things off till the last minute is their secret sauce to speedy production. Unfortunately, it stresses out everyone else on the team.⁣

THE STREAMER⁣
They’ve convinced themselves that streaming Mad Men 8 hours per day counts as “client research.”⁣

THE PING PONG CHAMPION⁣
Their day consists of five parts ping pong competitions and three parts client work. At least those three parts are heads down and dedicated.⁣
