Well, as the title suggests, I'm just wondering what other jobs/careers creative people may have chosen if you'd not been a designer?
If you didn't study design, did you still intend to be a designer, or did you 'fall' into it? Me personally, I have studeid graphics, whilst also co-running an events business...I think if I don't truely 'find myself' within graphics within the next year or so, I'll commit to events full-time/permanantly. I am still a creative person and so believe I would still end up in a creative role of some form! How about you? |

I studied interior design and architectural drafting (diploma level - which is all that my parents could afford in those days) I fell into graphic design along the way through the choices that I had available to me through experience. I would have loved to have been an architect.

Wanted to be a professional bicycle racer (tour de france kinda thing) or an architect but my head couldn't handle a-level phisics so it was straight to art school for me & graphics all the was since.

I honestly don't know - granted I'm not in the industry yet and am only just about to embark on my design education! - but I often think, if I can't do design, for whatever reason, what the hell will I do??
I genuinely have nothing else I want to do, nothing that I could see me having a long term career in. Design is it - not sure which area I'll go yet but it's definitely all I have passion for and can see myself doing and enjoying. |
