Locating over your head»
Alexander Isley on going to work for Tibor Kalman:
It’s really important to be in over your head, to put yourself in a position where you’re in over your head — whether you’re a designer or just a human being. To be challenged. Because you know what? After a couple of weeks of being completely terrified, you’re on top of it, and you can do it. (8:00)Love the subtle hierarchy: “a designer or just a human being.”
Tibor Kalman is one of my all-time heros. I didn’t know he existed until I happened on his obit in the NYT randomly… then spent the rest of the day reading everything I could find out about him.
