About this episode

This week I spoke with designer Tony Romain. Tony has an incredibly diverse portfolio of work and we had a chance to dive into a lot of awesome topics in our conversation. We talked about finding your style in design, how the design community has influenced his work, and the trends he sees in design that he's excited for. As I said, Tony has some really incredible work focused on spreading positive vibes and exploring different styles of design, so make sure to check out his work at the links below:
