Based in Atlanta, Georgia, Reggie Perry, Jr. creates virtual visions of a world inspired by black culture, '90s animation techniques, and 3D movies – one that moves to retro beats he remixes himself. When Reggie Perry, Jr. looked at the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2001, the fees were too high for him to attend Georgia's famous art school.

As consumers, design can sometimes seem to be made in a vacuum, born from a spark of ingenuity where there was nothing before. As designers, we understand that all is built on the backs of those that came before. We cannot help but be influenced by what we know, whether we like it or not. A prime example of this type of creation is the Utzon Stool. The Utzon Stool by Jørn Utzon is proudly presented for the first time by Fritz Hansen in 2024.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

Unlike sectors such as fintech or FMCG, record labels naturally lend themselves to the more creative side of design and branding – they have far more niche audiences, and usually don’t have to work as hard as something aimed at the supermarket shelf to stand out or appeal to mass audiences.

“An uncontrollable, potential lack of something valuable” is a fundamental definition of risk. The foundation of the insurance industry is based on the idea of risk and its sharing, in which an insurer takes on part of the monetary hazard of an insured celebration in return for a predetermined amount of money referred to as a top class. Underwriters are essential to the insurance sector as they determine the types and conditions of insurance coverage.

From visually impaired users who rely on assistive technology, to people with a temporary injury such as a broken arm, tech users are forever diverse and beautifully unique. The products we design can, and should, reflect the extremely wide range of human experiences and needs.
