Meet Martin Aries (@martin_.aries) — a graphic designer who plays with typography to turn feeling into form.

We talked about:
• The “good things are coming” card — made to comfort a friend in a hard time, and the very reason design started in the first place
• Where inspiration lives: real-life places and events, from a nearby-city bookstore to exhibitions and concerts
• Current work anthem: Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally by Harry Styles 🎧
• A recent obsession with calisthenics, and the joy of unlocking new progressions

Meet Nat Michalak (@fairict) — a graphic designer building worlds out of film, texture, and a little controlled chaos.

We got into:
• The proudest work so far — a grunge horror poster series made on instinct and spontaneous accident
• A wide source of inspiration: cinema, sound, nature, objects, and the things most people walk past
• A work anthem mix tuned strictly to mood 💿
• A recent obsession with script fonts and metal textures — and where it’s leading

Meet Brandon (@brandonstaniford) — a graphic designer crafting bold, music-loving work shaped by 80s aesthetics, internet archives, and a deep poster culture.

We talked about:
• The work most proud of — recent designs for the fantastic artist Mr. Fantasy, a reminder that posting online really can put work in front of the right eyes
• Where inspiration comes from — Instagram scrolls, plus deep dives into internet archives for old-school gradients and 80s-esque imagery
• The current work anthem — NEVER ENOUGH by Turnstile 🎸
• A lasting influence — One Piece, the anime that inspires the “just get up and try” mentality and reads sharply against today’s political climate
• A recent obsession with Pokémon cards — a long-running collection built around an enduring love for the art style on every card
