Design Matters from the Archive: Adam J. Kurtz
Debbie Millman talks to Adam J. Kurtz about designing for psychological health. “I’m not going to change your life, I’m just going to share with you the tools that are helping me.” Debbie says:
Adam calls himself an artist. He says he does that because nobody has time for his multi-hyphenate reality. Well we’ve got time and today on the podcast we’re going to explore how this designer, author, illustrator, creative director, small press, brand got to be who he, so delightfully, is. Adam has designed many fun and witty products for Urban Outfitters, Strand Bookstore, among other retailers, and he’s also done work for Pepsi, Adobe, and The New York Times. He’s written two books, the second of which just came out and is titled Pick Me Up.
