The hard truth: AI will replace the part of design that was never really design. The rest stays.

Reading University Announcement

Grateful to be invited by the University of Reading to contribute to their design programme this fall.

I’ll be:
– Sharing select online content in advance with students
– Giving a talk on the future state of the design industry, especially for typography-minded designers
– Joining a hybrid panel discussion on careers
– Offering one-to-one feedback sessions on portfolios and interview prep

Reading has such a strong legacy in typography — and I’m glad to help today’s students find their voice in the evolving industry.

Thanks to Keith for the nudge, and to the Reading team for the warm welcome.
