Thoughts on Mirian Bantjes

Wow, what an interesting woman!

- She separated herself from the way most designers work. Which she calls a strategic model: meet with the client and figure out their needs. Now, it's the designers that hire Mirian, she no longer tries to figure out the client; instead, she makes what she wants.

- She works against what is expected.

- Works with purposeful randomness.

- Design needs artists. Artist don't need to loose themselves by doing commercial work, they can make a living being creative. The personal work will still be there.
