Brad Brooks's Blurbs |
About me:
I'm a middle-aged graphic designer, partner in a Design Consultancy, married to Liz with a young daughter, Sophie. I'm probably far too old to have a page on this thing, but lots of people I know have a page, and hey, I'm nothing if not someone who like to pretend that they are 'with it'. If you want to 'befriend' me that's fine, but please note that I'm a terrible friend in return, as most of my real life mates will tell you, and I'll probably ignore you unless I want something. At least I'm honest, eh?
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Alan Fletcher (RIP, so no chance there. Yet), Milton Glaser, Michael Johnson (the designer), Chris Ware (properly next time), Lewis Trondheim and a whole bunch of people you have probably never heard of...
