Stefan Sagmeister is a designer whose work over the years delighted and surprised people across the world. He started his studio in 1993 and worked predominantly in the music industry, creating album covers for the likes of The Rolling Stones, David Byrne and Brian Eno. For his work with the latter two, he received two Grammies. He’s worked across commercial and cultural projects with partner Jessica Walsh and only in the past few years has withdrawn himself from the agency to focus on non-commercial projects and explore his interests in long-term thinking, beauty and happiness.   And these are some of the key topics of our conversation – long-term thinking, beauty and happiness, but Stefan also offers insights as varied as believing that a team of three creatives would be enough to rebrand a whole country and that Twitter’s lack of beauty in its design, affects the nature of the conversations people are having on the platform. A brilliant conversation to kick off a new season of the podcast.   Stefan’s website: https://sagmeister.com/ His fashion brand: https://www.sagmeister123.com/ -- This season of the On Design podcast is brought to you by The Conran Shop.
