| In the 1980s, when corporate design reached maturity and blossomed into the slick, far-reaching, multimedia branding extravaganza we all know and love today, a few of the foremost practitioners in the field got restless and began asking pointed questions and examining the role of the design community. The most notable of these individuals was Tibor Kalman. |
| �I acknowledge that you can't be a designer and have nothing to do with corporations....That's how it is, and you're either going to go into a shell, go into academia, kill yourself, or figure out a way to swim with the barracuda.� - Tibor Kalman |
| �I pursue the blissful moment of coming up with an idea.� |
| �Make media to your own personal standards.� |
| �Making money was the biggest waste of time.� |
| �Absolute perfection is not always the most engaging quality in a design.� |
| �Everything Is An Experiment.� |
| �Once you learn, move on.� |
| �Where do [you] want to be in five or ten years? Do [you] want to die with the most toys, or do [you] want to die with the best life and experiences?� - Tibor Kalman |
