Today's guest is Paul Sahre. He is a graphic designer at his studio OOPS - Office of Paul Sahre. He is also the art director for the band They Might be Giants and an Author of the book Two Dimensional Man.
During this episode we talk about:
-his unique path to starting OOPS Studio.
-how he was always creative as a kid but it wasn't until his dad handed him a certain book that pointed him to graphic design.
-the workshop he was at in Switzerland that was really influential to him and why.
-what he misses about his days of creating lots of print design.
-the wide variety of tangible design stuff he creates for the band, including a giant pink cardboard monster truck.
-the struggles he faced right after finishing school.
-projects where he was really excited to show his ideas to the client but they were not as excited.
I really enjoyed chatting with Paul and I love the print-related ask-it-forward question that he has in the end. @psahre
