Sagmeister

Stefan Sagmeister é considerado um dos designers mais fodas que ainda vivem.
Em 2000, num periodo de afastamento do trabalho, ele criou o livro "Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far", no qual ele apresenta 20 coisas que ele aprendeu e anotou no seu diário durante esse tempo livre. No livro, ele transforma essas palavras em projetos de arte. Apesar de não ter visto as obras (ainda), achei a matéria prima sensacional. Dá uma lida:

Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far' by Stefan Sagmeister

1. Helping other people helps me.

4. Organising a charity group is surprisingly easy.

5. Being not truthful always works against me.

6. Everything I do always comes back to me.

7. Assuming is stifling.

8. Drugs feel great in the beginning and become a drag later on.

9. Over time I get used to everything and start taking for granted.

10. Money does not make me happy.

11. My dreams have no meaning.

12. Keeping a diary supports personal development.

13. Trying to look good limits my life.

14. Material luxuries are best enjoyed in small doses.

15. Worrying solves nothing.

16. Complaining is silly. Either act or forget.

17. Everybody thinks they are right.

18. If I want to explore a new direction professionally, it is helpful to try it out for myself first.

19. Low expectations are a good strategy.

20. Everybody who is honest is interesting.
