In this second episode of Built By Hand, Ben's mission is to do creative research for his personal website. He'll be collecting references and resources from other designer's work with a two-part goal: to get inspired and figure out the visual direction for his website. Does the process of research and inspiration that he's refined over the past decade apply to a personal website? Do the same tactics work? How hard is it to find inspiration for your personal brand if you're better at creating from a position of empathy.
As designers, we make it our aim to provide design services for clients. A client communicates vision and we bring it to life using different mediums, compositions, and our experience. However, there is always one client that is the most difficult to design for....yourself.
Ben Burns a self-taught designer and entrepreneur continues a creative journey to discover his voice and carve out a place among the business he's helped build.
