Dreams, Realities, and In-Betweens (ft. Andy Pressman) | Ep. 207

Educated Guess :: A Liberal Arts School for the Future

Andy Pressman is currently a resident of Portland, Oregon. And, according to his Instagram, he is very clearly NOT an Art Director. Yet, I think you might find it interesting that he is the former head/founder of the design studio Rumors. While running the studio, they had the joy of taking on clients like Sci-Arc, Microsoft, Clif Bar, and more. Andy is now a Creative Director at Upstatement and just so happens to run an incredibly insightful Twitter page.

Some of the topics covered in this episode include, but aren’t limited to:

• The realities of starting, running, and closing a design practice
• Finding a through-line from time as a Cooper Union Student to now
• Selling to clients without doing work for spec
• Reflecting on the dreams and realities of running a New York design studio
