aaron draplin discussion

When I started studying graphic design, I was shown a YouTube video on him lamenting the overly mechanical nature of a lot of modern designers...which I kind of agree with.

Not that I'm personally into his particular design style, but he's good at what he does, and I respect the dude's work.

I like him, I like his book collection even more
>Give me that fucking Neubau Welt book
I enjoy his personality and his work ethic, his work itself is pretty good but I'm not really into branding.

Stop looking for validation on /gd/. Draplin is fine (probably more successful than I ever will be tpp) and a lot of young designers gravitate towards him. He's not great though, he's just loud and he says things that other people think. Nothing wrong with that, just don't worship him.

he is always in trends with his logos, they are well made but will not be timeless, because of trend changes.
he seems like a very nice person and has some interesting views on graphic design and how the business should run.
