DESCRIPTION

Too often a design or architecture degree is seen as a means to an end (a job in an established practice). The current economic climate has seen many graduates chasing a finite number of positions. The most ingenious and driven designers have found weird and wonderful ways of making opportunities for themselves, often by applying their skills across the creative disciplines of art, design, architecture and interiors. Knowing what one wants from their design career and being able to adapt their strategy to suit is basic and vital – just like in the wild, designers need to evolve.

The book celebrates the various strategies that students and graduates are taking to gain exposure, while also including interviews and inspirational advice from those who are now enjoying success as a result of their creative approach to employment.

This revised edition includes inspirational advice and a new chapter on making a difference, features new stories from 13 innovative designer-entrepreneurs, and checks in with many of the original creatives from the first edition.
