Business of Design - Kimberley Seldon - Rule of Thirds with Patrick Ediger - 28 min
As the design world faces the challenge of addressing wastefulness, it may be surprising to learn, the key to creating beautiful design while remaining eco-conscious lies in our very own backyards. A Los Angeles-based designer, Patrick Ediger has a formula that harnesses hyper-local practices to craft sustainable, timeless, and functional design for his clients.
In this episode we learn:
reframe the discussion from eco-conscious to one of sustainability and what that means on a human level
rule of thirds means you source 1/3 from vintage/reused, 1/3 from sustainable, and 1/3 from local maker or manufacturer
source local craftsmen via Instagram, word of mouth, and trade publications
educate your clients about higher quality = higher costs
what I learned through BOD™: processes, goal setting and the importance of designing with integrity and the obligation we take on as design professionals to provide the best service we possibly can to our clients.
