Even with the right tools, sometimes designs just don’t work. You can invest in the best graphic design monitor or even a top-quality graphic design mouse, and still end up with a design that doesn’t do what it needs to.

In this Podcast episode, we interview Gavin Knox, from Karbon Media. During the episode, we discuss the difference between a good design and a bad design.

Gavin shares his thoughts on running with creativity and aligning the creative with the business goals, emphasizing that sometimes, when design is intentionally bad, it is still a good design.

He further dives into the mindset that you need to look into when starting a creative endeavour of your own, and shares his experiences of how he learnt what he knows, but also shares some of his hard learnt lessons.
